"I would highly recommend participating in anything he offers and I look forward to working with him in the future."

“Toms experience and passion for photography, especially surf photography is without doubt the reason I chose him as a mentor. He lives what he teaches and this passion transcends through to his clients.

He is always available to answer questions and shows his genuine stoke when one of his clients produces a great photo. He is genuine and honest with his reviews and that I am grateful for as it makes me a better photographer. I would highly recommend participating in anything he offers and I look forward to working with him in the future.”

"The tutorial videos are done so well and it is great to be able to progress through the course at your own pace"

"I joined Tom's confident & water photographer courses with no previous photography knowledge at all. The courses are put into a simple and easy way to understand and with the advantage of going back to lessons when ever I want to recap on certain topics.The tutorial videos are done so well and it is great to be able to progress through the course at your own pace, But one thing I had never expected when signing up to the courses was the incredible community that’s been created within the course. If you have a question or need help so many others are happy to assist and share their experience"

Learn From a Working Professional Photographer

I'm Tom Woods, and I’ve worked as a professional photographer for more than 20 years.

During that time, I’ve photographed everything from travel and tourism campaigns to people, landscapes, commercial work, water and action.

I created Confident Photographer because I kept seeing people invest in good cameras but still feel confused, hesitant and overwhelmed by technical information.

My aim is not to bury you in theory. It is to help you understand what matters, practise it properly and become confident enough to make your own creative decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1: How long do I have access to the course?

Question 3: How is this different from YouTube tutorials?

YouTube can be a great place to learn individual tips, but the information is often scattered and difficult to put into the right order.

The course is priced in AUD (Australian Dollars). If you're overseas, the current exchange rate likely means you’ll be paying less than expected. And for Aussie photographers—no conversion confusion, just a straight-up price.

Question 5: Do you offer a money-back guarantee?

Yes! If the course doesn’t deliver what you’re looking for, I’ll refund your money—no dramas. I’ve seen this program work for hundreds of photographers, and I’m confident it’ll work for you too. If something’s missing, I’ll create the lesson you need.

"Tom’s course helped me catch the photography bug. It gave me clarity, practical tools and a bucketload of inspiration"

"I had all the gear and no idea. Photography was trickier than I thought and I couldn’t speak the language.

Tom’s course helped me catch the photography bug. It gave me clarity, practical tools and a bucketload of inspiration. I’ve been on a roll ever since. The course is awesome. Tom puts his technical info into a simple, digestible format that has been easy for me to follow, understand and put into practice. And yes, I’m starting to speak the language and I’m getting more and more stoked on my images."
