Check out the new 1 day photography basics course I am running on the Sunday 31st August.

It only costs £30 and spaces are limited to a maximum of 15 people. It is aimed at beginners, but I hope to run more intermediate and advanced courses at a later date depending on the success of the basics course.

The course will be run in Park Bridge, surrounded by trees, streams, and open space in the grounds of an old mill giving plenty of opportunity for various types of photography including landscape, nature, wildlife (hopefully), architectural and portraits if we have some willing models amongst the group.

The course will be largely practical, with a little theory and explanation along the way but the idea is to get you all taking pictures and learning how to make better use of your camera. You will learn about Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO, White Balance and how they affect the image, and you will also look at composition techniques to improve the image.

The course will run from 10am - 4.30pm and food will be provided at lunchtime, although you are more then welcome to bring your own or visit the local tea rooms if you wish.

You will need to bring your own camera, it doesn’t matter if it’s a basic point and shoot or an advanced DSLR, the fundamentals apply to them all. Just make sure your battery is charged, and you have backups or bring your charger too. Also make sure you have a clean memory card and spares, just in case you carried away with your photos. You will be responsible for your own equipment and I take no responsibility for loss or damage of your equipment during the day.

COURSE NOW FINISHED

UPDATE: There appears to have been a problem with my old shopping cart system, and the item said it was sold out when it in fact wasn’t (at the time of writing this) so I am updating the cart to solve this issue. Please use the options above to buy the course and book a place on it.
