What you'll do
In this workshop, you will grasp the fundamentals of the exposure triangle, boosting your confidence and photographic skills. Understand aperture, shutter speed, and ISO to master manual mode, no matter your level of experience, and have fun learning when to utilise semi-automatic modes in different lighting scenarios.Whether you're a beginner or just refreshing your skills, this workshop will guide you through the intricacies of your camera. Learn about composition rules such as the rule of thirds, leading lines, and framing, in order to make informed creative choices, finally moving away from the guesswork of auto mode.Guests will have a camera with the distinctive aperture, shutter speed, and ISO settings (DSLR or mirrorless preferable).Comfortable attire is recommended as we aim to shoot outdoors, weather permitting. Bring a pen and notepad to make your own annotations on the worksheets provided.At the end, you'll leave with the knowledge of how technical elements shape artistry and a newfound confidence in your photography.

Your teacher
I have been doing this for the best part of 15 years now, when I enrolled on the City and Guilds Level 1 course at Oldham Lifelong Learning in September 2010. After this I went on to complete levels 2 and 3. The level 3 course was two full days a week, which introduced me to the type of photography I remain very passionate about: social and environmental portraiture with a nod towards editorial (storytelling). In short: I am interested in people and forming real connections. This is an intuitive thing for me, but one that transmutes into the aesthetic when accompanied by an understanding of what works visually.In a previous life I gained an English Literature degree from the University of Sheffield, which is demonstrative of a firm basis of learning and academia. I have taught English in High Schools as a Supply Teacher, along with Adult Education many years ago. More recently I taught photography to absolute beginners of a Saturday morning.I have a decade's worth of experience working in Adult Social Care (two-and-a-half years as a manager in a learning disabilities project; Access to Nursing qualification), which gave me the interpersonal skills necessary for working with people on many different levels. This understanding of what makes people tick goes hand-in-hand with what I understand a portrait to be: an authentic character study of a person in their own space, as opposed to a mere “picture of a person”).
