GREY SEAL PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP

East Coast of Norfolk

Grey Seal Pup suckles from Mum

Join me on a workshop on the east coast of Norfolk to photograph the Grey Seal pupping season. It’s always a privilege to spend time with Grey Seals, but it’s even more special when the little, fluffy, white pups start to appear on the beach. At such a sensitive time of year for these animals it’s imperative to follow a strict code of ethics; the welfare of the animals will always come first here. With my guidance, you’ll have an extremely rewarding experience photographing these incredible mammals, safe in the knowledge that you won’t have disturbed them.
