Want to take better photographs?
Let our trained professionals show you how.

Are you a beginner or an improver? Would like to get a clearer understanding of your camera controls? Fed up with automatic settings and ready to unleash the creative potential of your camera? Or you may have some understanding of technique but need to brush up on your knowledge and rekindle your passion for photography. If the answer is yes, this course if for you.

Our digital photography course is suitable for complete beginners, and those who have taken a digital photography course before but just want to brush up on old skills.

With a mix of theory and demonstration, you will learn how to get the most from your camera: how to achieve consistent pin sharp images, strong composition, how to make quick adjustments for changing conditions and creative play with all the setttings. There will be plenty of time for practice and feedback and by the end of this course you will be MAKING photographs rather than simply taking them.

YOU’LL LEARN …

  • The essential functions of your camera: 
  • When to move from automatic onto manual settings
  • Creative techniques: 
  • How to control your exposure and exploit the depth of field
  • Troubleshooting: blurred images, weak composition, low battery/memory, salvaging poor images..
  • About using lenses, tripods and filters and protecting your camera.
  • Lighting and flash

Groups are no larger than 8 students to ensure individual support. An experienced photographer will be on hand to ensure you get to grips with your camera functions and to offer hints and advise when taking photographs. By the end of the day you’ll have a better understanding of your camera functions. Notes are supplied at the end of the workshop.

Please note that you will need to bring your own SLR digital camera and media cards to the workshop. The group will also break for one hour at lunch time.
