In this personalised photography workshop, you'll learn essential techniques to enhance your image-making abilities through hands-on practice and one-to-one instruction. The activity is completely tailored to your current skill level and photography goals, making it ideal whether you're just starting out or looking to refine more advanced techniques.
Working directly with your camera, you'll discover how to move beyond automatic settings to take creative control of your images. Your instructor will guide you through practical exercises that help demystify key concepts like the exposure triangle, focusing techniques, and camera modes including Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority, and Manual.
Many photographers feel uncertain when first moving away from automatic settings, but this supportive learning environment allows you to experiment and grow at your own pace. You'll receive immediate feedback as you practice, helping you quickly understand how different camera settings affect your final images.
Throughout the session, you'll learn how to:
  • Master your camera's manual and semi-automatic modes
  • Control focus for sharper, more compelling images
  • Configure optimal camera settings for different situations
  • Use the exposure triangle to achieve your creative vision
By the end of this illuminating session, you'll have gained both the technical knowledge and practical confidence to create the kinds of photographs you envision. You'll take away a deeper understanding of photographic principles and the ability to apply them in your own creative practice.

I have been passionate about fine art, nature, and landscape photography since graduating from university. Over the years, this passion has evolved into running my own commercial photography business, Welly Pictures, which I have successfully managed for the past five years.
Photography for me is about capturing moments in time, and I am dedicated to sharing this passion through teaching. With 13 years of experience in education, including secondary, BTEC, higher education, and adult learning. I focus on equipping students with the technical skills they need to enhance their photography.
A key teaching philosophy of mine is to perfect exposure and composition directly in-camera, minimizing the need for extensive editing. I often emphasize the importance of avoiding unnecessary cropping, famously reminding students: “You can’t polish a turd!” My personal love lies in playing with shutter speeds, creating dynamic images with motion in nature, people, and vehicles.
When working with students, I strive to understand their preferred photography genres and the equipment they use. This personalized approach helps build confidence with their cameras and deepens their knowledge. My goal is to inspire and guide each student to explore their creativity and master their craft.
