PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE DAYS

Maxmum group size of 4.

What will I learn:

• F-stops- we explain what they are and how to use them creatively to create both that dreamy background blur and to ensure your landscapes all in focus

• Focussing- we'll show you you how to tell your camera what to focus on to get those elusive shots with pin point accuracy

• White balance- how to change the colours in your photo if they're not what you see or what you want

• Exposure Compensation- learn how to make your photos brighter or darker with no need for editing

• Buttons and dials- we'll help you understand what they do, how to change them and how and when to use them so that you have a better understanding of and feel more confident with your camera

Here's what you can expect from the day:

• A fun, sociable and educational day, running from 10.30am until 4pm

• Tuition from an experienced professional photographer and course notes emailed to you afterwards to support your learning

• Both classroon and practical time, so that you get the best of both worlds and get the most from the day no matter what your learning style

• A review of images at the end of the day, with lots of opportunities to ask any questions

• Group size of no more than 4

• Refreshments on tap

• Access to our Facebook Community group following the workshop

In this workshop, you will learn how to create and expose for those stunning ‘smooth water’ images, how to use polarising and ND filters, and we will also look at the art of composition and how to best capture the surroundings of Padley Gorge.

There will be a Zoom presentation in the week leading up to the workshop, which is usually on a Tuesday evening, and the practical part of the workshop, which lasts around three and a half hours, will take place on the morning of 19th April at Padley Gorge. There will be plenty of time on the day to review your images; however, you can also opt for a short personal review over Zoom. Joining instructions will be emailed to you around a week beforehand, so you know where to meet, what time, and what to bring.

Filters are provided for you on the day; however, you will need a tripod to make the most of this workshop.
