Knighty’s Photography

Dylan Knight

I am an Australian Fine Art Landscape and Astrophotographer with a deep passion for photography. Late in 2016, I embarked on an unexpected journey of creativity, cradling my first camera with an inexplicable sense of destiny.

My soul ignited with an irrevocable passion for photography when I first set foot in the mesmerising landscapes of Utah, USA. I was captivated by the idea of seizing transient moments, encapsulating experiences, and freezing the flow of time itself within a single frame. Ever since, my life has been a relentless exploration of the limitless expanse of photography – a quest fuelled by an insatiable creative yearning.

The profound intimacy I've developed with the natural world, the humbling experiences of setting foot on unseen landscapes, the exhilarating adventures and the lessons learned in the most remote corners of our planet – these aren't just my experiences, but narratives of transformation that I've distilled into visual tales.

Indeed, mastering the art and science of photography has been an uphill climb, peppered with both steep challenges and thrilling victories. From grappling with varied cameras, lenses, and filters to navigating the complexities of post-processing, videography, drone piloting, and the dynamic world of social media – every moment spent honing my skills has been an essential brushstroke in the masterpiece of my journey. And let me assure you, the exhilaration, the heart-pounding thrill that engulfs you when you behold the world's wonders through a viewfinder is unmatched.

As an artist, I strive to immortalise the ethereal beauty of my journeys, transforming fleeting moments into eternal memories. Each image I create is more than a mere photograph – it's a conduit of emotion, a whispered secret between the universe and myself.

Now, as I tread further down this exhilarating path, my vision is to illuminate your journey, to share with you the knowledge and passion I've cultivated over the years. Through specialised in-the-field workshops across Australia, insightful online YouTube videos, comprehensive tutorials, and personalised one-on-one instructions, I wish to empower you to capture the essence of your unique experiences.

One of my most ambitious goals is to bring to life "The 7 Wonders of Australia" photography workshops. These workshops will explore seven of Australia's most iconic and breathtaking locations: Uluru (Ayers Rock), Cradle Mountain, The Pinnacles, The Kimberleys, Great Ocean Road, Blue Mountains, and Daintree Rainforest. Each workshop is designed to offer a multi-day immersive experience, capturing sunrise, sunset, and the stars, followed by classroom activities to refine your photos. This initiative reflects my passion for sharing these beautiful locations and providing an unparalleled photographic experience.

Whether you join me for a private session or a group workshop, my promise remains the same – to guide you towards your artistic aspirations, introduce you to Australia's unexplored beauty, and help you create your own symphony of visual narratives. So, come, let's embark on this odyssey of light, beauty, and discovery together.
