One key element for taking better photographs is knowing your equipment, and even if you use your smartphone every day there is still so much for you to learn about how to use its camera!

With the Borough Market as your backdrop, you will learn how to take photographs with more control and consideration as you gain a deeper understanding of the technical parts of your smartphone camera.

The class is outdoors and fully hands-on. You'll take plenty of pictures that will show off different techniques and allow you to practice your new photography skills.

  • A few basics of our camera phones.
  • Tips on focusing and exposure.

Classes are kept small and supportive. This means you'll always get the personal feedback you need and you might even make some new friends along the way. It's a perfect London activity for anyone looking for fun group activities or solo days out in the city!

Liz and Nathalie met through their love of photography and hit it off immediately. After many cups of coffee and the odd glass of wine, discussing how they would love to share their skills helping other people discover their own passion for photography, they began to formulate a plan and in 2018, New Shoots Photography Training was born.

Together, Nathalie and Liz have so far created three unique workshops all based in the Borough Market area, with each workshop, offering expertise in different aspects of photography.

For the enthusiastic amateur who owns a DSLR, desperately needing help to get started, or someone who perhaps needs a refresher in the basic techniques, to the smartphone camera user who really wants to improve the photos they are taking with their phones. New Shoots Photography Training’s most recent workshop has been devised for business owners who need help with content creation for marketing purposes using smartphone photography combined with Instagram insight.
