Kim Mayes
Come and join us as we explore composition in photography.

Composition is one of the most critical element in photography. Composition is how a photographer arranges the visual elements within their image, frame. I promise you that if you search for information on composition you will find plenty You will find formal rules, opinion, some of which you can trace back to historical art movements and painters.

Even in the digital world, composition remains the key to creating strong images. Composition is what guides our eye through an image and gives importance to the subject. It creates the story for the viewer and how we as photographers convey that message.

This meetup will explore composition using our frame and tools available to us as the photographer.


This is a 2-hour meetup.

Macro photography is a unique form of photography that involves photographing small objects to make them look life-sized or more significant in the photo. The usual subjects include flowers and small insects, which we don't normally get to see up close with the naked eye.

The class will start when the insects are more active. So be ready to explore and capture breathe-taking macro images.

I was in my studio just playing with paints on a canvas and seeing the blues and the greens, an inspiration came to mind like a flash. My brush works with magic... the fish came to life on my canvas. So came the Fish Tales.

Title or Location: Stanley
This is Stanley, he is a sweet little dachshund puppy that belongs to a daughter of a friend, Kaela. I needed to find a way to produce a sample artwork but have no pets of my own. Kaela had asked how much it would cost for me to paint her puppies even though she knew she felt she couldn't afford it. Well, I'm glad she did, I'm glad she took interest in my work and I really felt connected to the photo she shared with me of this cute little dog.Well, needles to say, I needed to produce a piece

Title or Location: Siberian Tiger
Here is my A4 drawing of a Siberian Tiger created with prisma colour pencils. The background was intentionally left white in order to empathise and better exhibit the tiger. The piece was first started back in 2016 during my apprenticeship as a tattoo artist. Interestingly it was only finished in 2021 after sitting for almost 5 years. After much impatience and long breaks from art I decided to return to the piece with years later with a renewed optimism and fresh eyes. It was one of my ear
