Britain's What's On Event Guide
Summer Blooms Photography Workshop with Molly Hollman
Join award-winning garden photographer Molly Hollman for an inspiring summer photography workshop. Whether you’re a seasoned photographer or just starting out, Molly will guide you through the creative techniques needed to help elevate your flower and garden photography skills.
Throughout the day, Molly will share her various approaches to capturing flowers, plants, and gardens in all their summer glory, blending hands-on sessions in the Garden with engaging theory inside the Marquee. From stunning landscapes to beautiful close-ups and macro photography, she’ll demonstrate her techniques to help you create breathtaking images. You’ll also learn how to take indoor shots using coloured and white backdrops, with the workshop concluding in a session on editing to ensure your flower and garden photos truly shine.
During the workshop, you’ll take inspiration from many of Borde Hill’s spectacular garden highlights, including our colourful Rose Garden, the charming Italian Garden, Paradise Walk and the Mid Summer Border – offering the perfect backdrop for what is arguably the most interesting and diverse month of the year for flower photography.
After the workshop, you will have free time to photograph or explore the Garden at your leisure. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn and capture the magic of nature through your lens.

Your longest lens (great for alternative macro techniques)
A macro lens (if you have one)
A wide-angle or 20-50mm lens (ideal for landscapes) or a bridge camera to cover all of the above)
Tripod, clamps, or clips
A sturdy bag for easy carrying while exploring
Handheld diffusers (provided, but bring one if you if you have it)
Your ticket includes:
Workshop tuition inside the Garden Marquee with practical sessions in the Garden
Morning refreshments
Sandwich Platter lunch
Entry to the Garden, which you’re welcome to explore after the workshop until 5pm
