Justin's long exposure workshop delivered on all counts. I had little experience of this genre and can find all the detail a bit overwhelming so needed some hands on tuition. As part of a small group, I benefitted greatly from Justin's patient teaching style, and the way he tailored the 1:1 time to suit my needs. The fact he had loan equipment that I could try before making an investment was a big bonus. I am definitely looking for a future workshop with Justin to further enhance my learning.
UPDATE: So impressed with the previous workshop, I managed to get onto another workshop in March 2021

I ordered The Photographing East Anglia book by Justin Minns and it arrived super quick!
Love the book, amazing photos and in depth info with directions to the viewpoints.
I’ve never visited East Anglia before but it’s definitely on my list from now on. I looked at booking some workshops with Justin Minns (I’m an amateur photographer) but they are sold out. This book seems like it will guide me to great locations to photograph.

Just back from a 1 day long exposure workshop in Essex with Justin. This is my 2nd trip out with Justin. I was extremely happy with the whole experience again. Justin gives such great advice and guidance. The 3 locations were great ! Am happy with the pics that I took and I am sure that I will be booking more workshops in the future. Thanks Justin !

I was on a Workshop with two friends in August (2020) and came away with a good few images. Justin is a very pleasant instructor who quickly understands the level you are at and then helps you in the areas you need. In my case, he helped me on alternative compositions and explaining reasons why you may want to use different vantage points. His local knowledge is excellent which helps with the schedule for teh various locations he wants to take you to. I would definitely recommend a Justin Minns Workshop for any skill level.

I have just enjoyed a great 121 landscape photography day focussing primarily on the use of filters. Justin has a relaxed and friendly teaching style, and at the same time packs a huge amount of learning and opportunity into the day. He conveys his knowledge, technical and creative, with patience and clarity. I will be back for more!

I have just attended Justin’s Long Exposure Workshop on the Suffolk / Essex coast as part of a small group.
Justin has a relaxed and informal style whilst being very informative and attentive. He gave clear explanation of techniques and greatly expanded my understanding of the use and effects of filters. As a result, my knowledge, and my confidence, are greatly improved, helped by seeing immediate results.
A word of thanks also go to the others in the group who were very friendly and great company.
All in all a most satisfying day’s photography. I can thoroughly recommend attending one of

I attended the 'Constable Country in Winter' workshop with Justin. The workshop was very well planned, the pace was excellent and I have come away with plenty of tips and 'In camera shortcuts'. Justin's advice on composition was superb. There was plenty of Fun & Laughter had by the whole group.
All ready booked another workshop.
Many Thanks Justin!

Had a fantastic 1-1 landscape photography workshop with Justin in Essex. Justin is a great guy and pro landscape photographer! He's allowed me to really focus on my composition and helped me to think outside the box. If you want to take your landscape photography to the next level, book in on one of Justin's workshops to learn the skills and techniques you NEED. Don't have any more wasted trips to locations walking away with "average" photos because I've done this for years. I learned more in 6 hours than in the last 2 years! Looking forward to getting booked in for another 1-1 soon.
