Real photographers sharing how macro photography changed their perspective on the world around them
Cassandra Nightingale
Professional Botanical Photographer
When I first held a macro lens, I thought I'd just be taking close-up flower photos. But this program showed me there's an entire universe in a single dewdrop. Now I spend hours documenting the architecture of spider webs and the texture of tree bark. My clients love this attention to detail in all my work.

Nature Documentary Assistant
After completing the advanced techniques workshop in July 2024, I landed my dream job working on wildlife documentaries. The patience and technical skills I learned here — especially focus stacking and lighting tiny subjects — directly contributed to footage that made it into our final film. It's incredible how macro photography teaches you to see differently.
