“I was so honored to be a part of Williams’ process in this series. He actually shared some incredible insight into how he processes his own shots (which are stunning). I went out the same evening to shoot the stars using his set up guidelines and got a fantastic result.”
– F.P.

“I was thrilled to see a course specifically taking up nighttime photography. Capturing the sky at night time has been something I have had some difficulty with. Thanks so much!”
– R.W.

“William really walked you through the start to finish here. I was able to make some adjustments for some of the better nighttime images I have turned out yet. Wonderful! I could not recommend his courses more.”
– E.W.

"Capturing the night sky and northern lights can be incredibly exciting but also challenging. In this course, I share my techniques for shooting on dark nights, how to produce night images that are sharp from front to back with low noise plus, how I process dark scenes to enhance and make the most of them."
