monk art photography gallery

Brilliant photos. Australia is so photogenic, but still you have to be there. Variation of sizes is helpful.

We stumbled upon this gallery and a few days later we were fortunate to stay in Adam Monk's parent's holiday home where many of his pictures were on the walls and thus looking great. What amazing images of a beautiful and stunning country - making us want to explore even further.

The canvas's are massive and you feel as though you are in the scene that has been captured by the photographer. Beautiful photography experience just wandering and looking at this artists' work.

My partner recently did a one-on-one photography tuition around Fremantle with Adam as something I arranged for his birthday. He thoroughly enjoyed it, learnt heaps and was talking about it all weekend to friends and family through out the rest of the birthday celebrations! I had fun being a "model" too! :) We will definitely visit the gallery again when next in Freo and you may even see us on one of your amazing looking photography travel tours one day!! Beautiful gallery as well with some stunning images, particularly of our beautiful North! Would recommend a photography session or just a squiz of the gallery to anyone! Thanks Adam and Danny :)

When one sees Adam Monk's images and Gallery it's obvious he is a perfectionist. This is a man that pays attention to every detail. His images are stunning and they are displayed in his beautiful Fremantle Gallery. It's obvious that he pays attention to every detail from capture through printing and display. There are very few people in any endeavor that give 110% to their craft.

Thank you to Adam and the people of Monk Art Photography for their amazing donation to this years' Starlight Five Chefs Dinner. We're sure his stunning artwork entitled “Impermanence 2” will be a great success in the silent auction. A big thankyou from the team at the Starlight Children's foundation.

I am one of the photographers who went to Bhutan with Adam in October 2013. It was a fabulous trip to a fabulous place. I enjoyed it immensely and I hope to go there again within a year or two. I will have no hesitation in going again with Adam. Everyone in our group captured fine photographs. Adam was very helpful in answering questions and educating the group on photography and post-processing. I think everyone learned something on our trip, and improved as photographers.Our Bhutanese guide and driver were excellent. They looked after us, kept us safe and were always available to tell us about their customs and their country. This was one of the very best photo trips I have done. Bhutan is a truly rich environment for photographers. The countryside, scenery, people and culture were amazing. Our group was a nice mix, not too large and they are all new friends now.Adam showed us the best of the festivals, monasteries and landscapes and everything that goes with being in this remarkable country. He was good company and looked after us very well indeed. Recommended.

I joined Adam on a photography tour of Bhutan in October 2013. What a stunning country and the people are an absolute delight. It is a portrait photographers paradise. And what was really nice is that Adam returned to some of the same locations in 2014 so I gave him a selection of prints to hand out to some of the many willing "subjects".It was a full on program with many wonderful photo opportunities. Stunning landscapes, friendly people, old monasteries, animals galore and so much more. We were very fortunate (though of course it was well planned by Adam) to coincide our trip during two festivals. One was a really big festival but my favourite was a smaller one with more locals and less tourists. We were also very lucky to discover two very small local celebrations and the trip had the flexibility to join in.After enjoying a substantial buffet evening meal the group often got together to review images and Adam demonstrated many great Lightroom techniques. I consider myself pretty conversant with Lightroom but still gained some great tips that have really helped speed up my selection and editing process.My other half isn't into photography based tours so being able to join a fabulous group of like minded people to enjoy my passion is great. It is a perfect way to travel solo with the security of numbers. Though not too many as Adam wisely keeps the group numbers small.

September 2013 I went with Adam on his two week trip to Bhutan.To review it in one sentence: I returned from Bhutan with great memories, great photos but mainly I am a better photographer than I was before the trip. =)With a good mix of photo sessions, technical sessions and tourism the tour really fits the bill. Adam is a great coach and likes to teach and share his skills and knowledge.Our group had mixed technical skills and Adam was able to balance it up between the really keen photographes and the more tourism minded guys.comI won't even try to review Bhutan, there are considerably better writers than me out there doing it. I'll just say, you should go now! It's a magical place!Overall I loved every moment of the trip. Highly recommended!

Just dropped in to find some of the most iconic, beautiful and awe inspiring scenes of Australia. It made me turn around. I'm saving for the next time I visit.

The 15 day photography excursion in March to Bhutan with Adam Monk was a great trip in many ways. With such physical and cultural variety, we all clicked away like there was no tomorrow. It was Spring, so the landscape was dry in the valleys with brilliant yellow sunlit terraced landscapes, an abundance of prayer flags, small compact villages, unique in style and colour, blending so wonderfully with the terrain. The hills and fore-alps were deep green and just beginning to burst into red and white flowers everywhere. Culturally, the country is so unique - language, dress and easy outward communication of the Bhutanese, so pleasant and different from its neighbours of India and China. We photographed landscapes, so many monasteries, fortresses, monks, sporting events (especially archery, the national sport and darts where they throw a good 50m tot he target), markets, and the 3-day Punakha festival that was a stunning array of colour and great humour. We had pre-dawn shots from the high passes to post-sunset shots of the Fortresses and Monasteries as they turned their lights on. We walked up to the Tigers Nest (3200m altitude), a daunting challenge for some; everyone made the 'pilgrimage'. Adam reviewed photos in the evening, espoused the importance of RAW and demonstrated the transformation of photos in Lightroom; During the day he was always catching up with everyone giving 'tips' on getting different shots and angles on things. We all became our own critics and everyone left better photographers. The trip was more than just photography. It was also a great appreciation of Bhutan itself, a difficult landscape, a deeply Buddhist, gentle society, a belief in itself in maintaining an equilibrium and well being of its people. A super trip.Susan V

What a special treat it was to be on a photographic tour lead by Adam Monk. Adam put together the best “no rush” take in all the special sights, locations and festivals Bhutan had to offer in a march tour his year. He organized the most delightful and knowledgeable Bhutan guides and drivers to take care of us. Adam made himself available anytime to help with camera settings and composition. I had little idea about post photo processing before the trip but now I’m excited about the possibilities and have developed new skills. When Adam puts on a tour to another location I going.

During March, I joined a photographic tour Adam organises and leads through Bhutan. It was a once in a lifetime experience. Not only is Bhutan an amazing place to visit and explore, but to be taught to see it through the eyes of a photographer of Adam’s calibre was truly exceptional. The tour was very well organised, from making the arrangements to the follow up after the tour. Adam’s instruction catered for all the photographers on the trip and I certainly learned a lot.Helping Adam were the Bhutanese guides and drivers, who provided an outstanding service. They spoke English fluently and guided us through their culture, religion, history, customs and politics with pride and ease. The itinerary and travel arrangements had enough flexibility to cater for the unexpected and varied interests of the participants. Returning to Australia, I felt inspired but also very privileged to be able to visit a country like Bhutan – a big thank you to Adam, who made it all possible.

Adam Monk is not just a gifted photographer of our magnificent wilderness and nature. He also actively promotes its conservation through his unwavering support for our work. During the Kimberley campaign – through which we successfully stopped the imminent destruction of James Price Point by a large gas company, Adam ensured that the beauty of the place is captured and communicated to a larger audience who could appreciate this faraway place through his work. Year in and year out, he continues to donate stunning photographs for our fundraising campaigns. If you are yet to see his work first hand, a visit to the gallery is surely a must on your plan. - Michael Bartura; The Wilderness Society

We have bought 3 brilliant images of Western Australia by Adam Monk and are in the process of purchasing another one. His photographs are like we are revisiting many of our favourite places. When you walk into the shop you are immediately made to feel welcome and offered assistance. Whether you are a Western Australian or visitor The Fremantle Gallery is well worth visiting.
