I can’t say enough good things about Luke as a guide or a person. I would recommend that anyone who is interested in visiting Tasmania, whether they do photography or not, strongly consider hiring Luke O’Brien as a guide. — Stephanie, 2024

Anyone considering a photography workshop in Tasmania should definitely get in contact with Luke. I really enjoyed the knowledge Luke brought and his experience in picking locations best suited to the conditions and the compositions you are wanting to capture. He plans everything really well so your trip is a huge success and you finish with not just great photos but you leave a better photographer for the experience. Highly recommend.  — Mike, 2024

I have learned more in 2 hours than in 13 weeks at another course. Luke has the perfect personality to run courses like this, very approachable and using language that everybody can understand even more important: remember. Although there were differences in levels of experience, everybody was able to get something out of the course! I would definitely recommend this to friends!   — Elleke, 2014

I booked this photography day with Luke and I have to say it was one of the most fun, inspirational and educational days I have had. Luke is a down to earth, easy going bloke that has the patience and time to teach you all you need to take yourself a great photo of the beautiful locations on this tour. I will have absolutely no hesitation to book another tour with him. Do yourself a favour, if you want an excellent day out with great company and learn about your camera then Lukes your man. Not only that – you get to see a magical part of Tasmania.   — Craig, 2021

I have just completed the Freycinet 3 day workshop. It was my second workshop with Luke. I saw my first milky way. I have learnt more techniques, and have some great photos from the experience. I highly recommend lukes workshops, very well organized and it appeals to all levels of photographers.   — Anthony, 2018

We both enjoyed the photography workshop very much.  For me the highlights were the fantastic skies and the great people on the journey. I learnt about my tripod and camera as I am still a beginner.  Also to look at light and composition to create a picture, capturing our being in the moment. Thank you Luke for being so patient and well organised.   — Rosemary, 2014

I highly recommend working with Luke. We were only in town for two nights and organized a session to shoot the night sky. Luke was flexible and knew of a perfect location close to Hobart where we got a perfect composition and a phenomenal night sky. As a bonus, we got lucky and saw an Aurora. Luke was super helpful sharing his expertise on composition, exposure, etc. Thank you for an awesome session.   — Frank, 2017

Thanks Luke for a beautiful experience. Your patience and clear explanations, with us totally beginners, was greatly appreciated. I recommend any workshop with Luke!   — Renea, 2020

I highly recommend Luke’s Cradle Mountain photography tour. As a beginner, I learnt so much from Luke about nature and landscape photography that I never could have taught myself. Thank you Luke for an unforgettable experience.   — Julie, 2018

Traveling with Luke was a highlight of my trip. His expertise on virtually everything in the places we visited provided useful info on all things Tasmania. He was easy to talk to and most concerned with my inability to keep up with him and my daughter due to my slow gait and knee problems. Such a gentleman. He booked the best places to sleep, eat and visit. He knew the best places to view all the things we wanted to see and much more. So flexible, reliable, knowledgeable and helpful. If ever I came back to visit the western and middle of Tasmania, I would only work with him. Why because he’s the best…  — Brenda, 2024
