Photography Workshops

I have had an overwhelming response to the registration for this workshop, almost 30 people tried to register on Monday alone and people are still trying to register as I write this blog. Sorry for those who where unsuccesful in registering for this workshop, although another opportunity awaits you. I did have to limit workshop to 'first in best dressed'.

More Workshops to come...
Given the success of people wanting to participate in Photography workshops. I will be offering different workshops in the coming months, keep up to date on my FACEBOOK PAGE


Details coming soon...


Good News- 4 more Participants
I have decided to add 4 more places, so we have a total of 18 participants. I didn't want to have so many people missing out on this experience, although at the same time, I am cautious not to have too many participants that it would impact on the workshop.

Maternity Photoshoot with Anu & Mikko

Another great maternity photoshoot, here is what Anu had to say:

10 % off if you 'Like' the Glen J Nelson Photography Facebook Page

''Dear Glen, thank you so much for the fantastic maternity photo shoot the other week. I have never had my photos taken professionally before and you made it feel so easy and both me and my partner were really comfortable in front of the camera. It was a lot of fun and the pictures turned out stunningly beautiful. I'm so happy that I have professional photos taken to capture this most special time of my life and would recommend it to anyone! So THANK YOU!''

Sara & Petteri

When I first spoke to Petteri and Sara, they both had the strongest British accent and I thought they were from the UK...well with names such as theirs...they had to be Finnish. It turns out that they had been living in the UK for the past 8 years and recently returned to Finland. An extremely fun couple to photograph and had a great idea with the bicycle as a prop! The entire day was in Suomenlinna which made it easy for me. There are so many great photography locations around the island, it would be easy to spend a whole day shooting! Thanks for a great day...It was great to catch up with some fellow Australians as well!

Vera & Jarno

A very fun couple to photograph, full of energy and ready to try anything! This is the essence to get great wedding photographs. They both were happy to walk into the middle of a field of long grass and crops to get a shot I recommended. Hope it was worth it....! ;) Congratulations on your marriage guys!
