Learn how to shoot the night sky: A masterclass in Astrophotography
What you can expect.
Who I am.
Welcome! I'm Jason, a Minnesota native who found a true passion for astrophotography amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Australia. After dedicating 27 years to the US Marine Corps, I found solace and inspiration in astrophotography. The night sky became my canvas, and I have found immense joy in capturing its beauty. I am humbled to have been recognized as the winner of the Australian Geographic Nature Photographer of the Year in the Astrophotography category for two consecutive years in 2022 & 2023.
With 6 years of experience in astrophotography and editing night images, a bachelor's degree in Fine Art from Photography Studies College, as well as over 20 years of teaching experience in the military, I am well-equipped to guide others in capturing their own stunning night sky images. Join me on an incredible journey where we'll learn together, create lasting memories, and capture stunning night sky images.
Together, let's embark on a mission to help each other grow and become better in this captivating art form.

"Great weekend, learnt heaps, and pushed my astro technique further than I thought. Obvioulsy I was a little behind in the PS stuff, and working with 4 others, all at different levels cant be easy from your perspective, so I appreciated the video's youve supplied already, and of course the one on one editing tutorial is amazing. So, thanks again, It was great to meet you. If you want me to write a review for your website etc, let me know, I'll gladly put something together."
