For ten days in November, Jo and Di joined me for an unhurried adventure shaped by laughter, shared humour and time spent out in nature with cameras in hand. With ever-changing weather, unexpected wildlife encounters and plenty of moments that unfolded naturally, our days together were less about chasing scenes and more about enjoying the experience as it revealed itself.

When a two-day private photography tour met unpredictable Tasmanian weather, flexibility and good humour led the way. From rain and wind to sunshine and rainbows, Dianne and I adapted our plans and discovered that sometimes the most memorable moments happen when nature decides the itinerary.

A look back on a meaningful few days spent exploring, learning and photographing on Maria Island. Cosy comforts, winter light, wildlife encounters and creative connection made this women’s photography escape one to remember.

Maria Island is a picturesque gem where history and nature intertwines and an endless array of photographic opportunities await!
