Bedgebury Pinetum

Bedgebury Pinetum is a magical world of trees, lakes and woodland located HERE between Lamberhurst and Goudhurst on the Kent and Sussex border. I have been shooting here for many years and never cease to be amazed at all the photographic opportunities this glorious location has to offer. I have captured every season in the Pinetum and I always look forward to seeing the forest transform and blossom throughout the year.

With the support of Forestry England, every year I host a number of workshops at the beautiful Bedgebury Pinetum where I offer fellow photographers an opportunity to see this magnificent forest in all its glory. I offer two types of workshop…

My Photo Walks are aimed at enthusiast photographers looking to learn the fundamentals of photography. Participants can use any camera they like (even smartphones) and as we will be covering quite a lot of ground we will not be using tripods. Walks begin when the Pinetum opens at 8.30am.

My Photographic Workshops are for dedicated photographers up early looking to capture the magic of the dawn light. Workshop begins at 6am and includes exclusive access to the Pinetum before it opens to the public. You will also have the opportunity to watch me edit a few pictures after the shoot. Participants should have their own DSLR or bridge camera and a tripod. Price includes access to the Pinetum and off site parking in a private car park, NOT in the main Bedgebury car park.

If you would like to book me for a private one-to-one or group workshop then please EMAIL me or use the CONTACT form. I look forward to seeing you in the future.

In the height of summer, this stunning rhododendron sheds her flowers and carpets the scene with vibrant pink and purple petals. The rays of the setting sun bursting through the foliage makes for a magnificent light source bringing the whole place alive.

Divine autumn colours of the splendid conifers surrounding at Marshal's Lake. This long exposure smooths the water to perfectly show off the mirrored reflection.

The sun bursting through the trees illuminating the valley floor.

Dawn breaks above a frozen log pile.

Stunning spring colours.

As the sun came up over the Pinetum, the fog rose to create an ethereal atmosphere across the forest floor.

A riot of colour beyond the shelter of the large pines synonymous with the Pinetum.

The sun bursts through the branches of a pine tree illuminating the rising mist over this beautiful lake.

Autumn hues in full effect surrounding the old footbridge over Marshal's Lake.
