My name is Hugh Brown and I have been pho­tograph­ing the Kim­ber­ley and Pil­bara night skies for almost 30 years.

I have pub­lished nine best sell­ing cof­fee table books and for much of the past 20 years, I have been work­ing on projects in some of the world’s most dif­fi­cult and remote places. I have worked in over 30 dif­fer­ent countries.

The Kim­ber­ley is my home and pas­sion, and I am excit­ed to be offer­ing four unique tours.

Por­traits Under the Stars: This is a unique por­trait ses­sion where peo­ple can get their por­trait tak­en under Broome’s mag­i­cal night sky. It’s high­er yield­ing and some­thing high end for those want­i­ng it. Peo­ple come with me for about 90 min­utes to an hour and then they depart, and I stay on and cap­ture the stars.

Then there are two oth­er prod­ucts. These are synced with each oth­er, so that when the moon is not right, I run the half day tours and then, when the stars are right, I run the Broome Astropho­tog­ra­phy Tours.

With the excep­tion of April (and maybe May) the Astropho­tog­ra­phy Tours start before sun­set, we go out and pho­to­graph the dusk and stay on to pho­to­graph the Milky Way when it emerges. Max­i­mum of 10 peo­ple and a min­i­mum of six.

All stan­dards of pho­tog­ra­phers are wel­come, from begin­ners, those with more expe­ri­ence and pro­fes­sion­als. My aim is to share my knowl­edge and pho­tog­ra­phy processs­es with my guests. You will receive my cheat­sheets and hacks that I use in my work. 

You are wel­come to give it a try, or you might just want to observe and learn. You might not be a pho­tog­ra­ph­er, and want to come out and expe­ri­ence the night sky to learn some­thing dif­fer­ent. Either way, I wel­come you to join me.

When the stars are not good, I run my Broome Half Day Pho­tog­ra­phy Tours.

We meet at 2.30pm dur­ing the day, and then I take you around to show you some of Broome’s more mag­i­cal places to pho­to­graph. We then find the per­fect spot to pho­to­graph the sun­set and dusk. These are often places most tourists could­n’t find eas­i­ly by them­selves. All stan­dards of pho­tog­ra­phers are welcome.
