We start our walk at sunset and head to photograph the bridges in a line. We then head up river towards the High Level Bridge stopping on-route to capture the Millennium Bridge. Up on the High Level bridge we have a bit of fun with long exposure to get the light trails of passing vehicles before heading to the centre of the bridge for a birds eye view of the Quayside.
Full instructions on settings and composition help given throughout the walk.
This workshop starts at 7pm and will last around 2-hours and is a maximum of 4 people. -

NIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY WALK – YORK - Wrap up warm, grab your camera and join us for an evening photographing beautiful York after dark.
With its historic streets, illuminated architecture and Christmas lights, York is a fantastic place to get creative with your camera at night. We'll make our way through the city centre, looking for different photographic opportunities around landmarks including York Minster and the historic Shambles, as well as the smaller details, reflections and pockets of light we discover along the way.
We'll experiment with longer exposures and low-light photography, capture the atmosphere of the Christmas lights and have a little fun with light painting too.
This is a relaxed, supportive photowalk rather than a formal workshop. We'll photograph together, share ideas and inspiration, and I'll be on hand throughout to help with settings, composition or anything else you get stuck with.
It's a lovely opportunity to get out with your camera, try something different and enjoy photographing alongside other people — hopefully heading home with some images of York you didn't think you'd be able to create.
Time: 7pm–9pm
Meeting point: Outside The Eagle and Child, 9 High Petergate, York, YO1 7EN at 6.50pm, ready to leave promptly at 7pm.
You'll need a digital camera that allows you to set both aperture and shutter speed, plus a tripod. Loan tripods are available if required.
