Beginner Photography Course

Do you want to be able to use your camera properly and understand its main settings?

By completing our Beginner Photography Course, you will start the session knowing hardly anything about your camera, but will finish it taking some impressive photos.

On this one day, in person, course you will learn how to take control of your camera and take the types of photos you want to take

You will discover the best settings and functions for lots of different scenarios.

A smart of a small group, you will learn some photography theory, but mainly you will be working hands on with the tutor to get to grips with your camera.

Along the way you'll master the techniques you need to massively improve your photography.

I just wanted to say what a wonderful day I had.. After having read two beginner books about aperture, iso and shutter speed I was still in such a muddle about it all but the penny dropped today and I feel really excited to start taking photos outside of auto mode! ...explained everything so logically and the practical exercises we did were spot on. I really liked his style, which was relaxed but also his passion for the craft is apparent and clearly the guy knows his stuff. His presentation was excellent with just enough written information on the slides without it being laborious. Thanks for organising such a great course.

The course was amazing, such a great experience.

Steve was amazing, I learned a lot and now I feel more confident and able to finally start doing what I love.

I'm looking forward to signing up to another course. Fully recommended.

Thank you so much.

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the course yesterday.

I started the day with no idea how to work a camera and by the end of the day was able to start composing reasonably decent shots.

Thought Steve was a great teacher, very relaxed and was able to explain his points really clearly.
