DSLR Photography Private Tuition > more

Digital Photography CoursesMost of our one day photography courses have six students using a variety of Digital SLRs. As we need to cater for a range of cameras these courses need to be more generic. Private one to one photography tuition is just you, me and your camera. These courses are specially tailored to your personal requirements and specific camera. Everything from the normal beginners and intermediate group photography courses is covered plus the practical photography sessions are about twice as long. More Info >

DSLR Photography Plus Photoshop Tuition > more

Digital SLR Plus PhotoshopThe DSLR Photography plus Photoshop Tuition course follows the same basic structure as the normal one day 121 photography course but the practical photography exercise time is reduced to allow for a 2-3 hour Photoshop session. These session are flexible but normally include basic image adjustments using Levels and Curves, Image Size, Resolution & Quality & Cropping for the web & print. More Info >

Portrait & Low Light Photography > more

Low light PhotographyThis very popular combined course features a portrait photography session in the afternoon followed by the night photography session in the evening. We will show you how to take great portraits by available light, flash and candle light before moving onto the low light and night time photography course in the evening. Your own tripod would be helpful for both session but we do have a couple of spares. A light supper is provided.

DSLR Photography - Using RAW & HDR > more

Photography plus HDRThe Digital SLR Photography plus RAW & HDR one to one course concentrates on landscape photography using the RAW file format & HDR techniques. These intensive photography & Photoshop courses are aimed at producing exhibition quality images for print or web use. The courses a run using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements. More Info >

Digital SLR Product Photography Course >more

Product Photography CourseThere is no substitute for employing a professional photographer and this would be our first recommendation. We do understand that on many occasions it is not always practical or cost effective to employ a professional just for a quick portrait or product shot. Our product photography training courses can be held at our location or at your premises. This could save you £££s in time and money in professional photography fees. We are also able to extend the course with Photoshop tuition. More Info >

Photoshop Private Tuition >more

Photoshop TuitionOne of the most widespread comments we get from students is that the pictures they take don't look like those they visualise. Sadly this is often due to the limitations of the camera. Our Photoshop courses help you to realise your photographs full potential by adjusting the colour, contrast and composition in Photoshop to present a more realistic image. We also have a popular courses in image restoration which can transform old or damaged photographs.

Photography, Photoshop & Web Design Courses >more

We also run group photography courses for charitable organisations, police forces, university and college. If you have a specialist photography, Photoshop or group course in mind then drop us an email or give us a call and we'll see if we can help you.

Student Testimonials

Having spent over a year using my camera only on full auto to take photos I decided I needed help to figure out all the settings I should be using.

I'm so pleased I did. This photography course explained all the settings and all the best picture composition tips I needed. Glen ensured no one left without all of their questions being answered- including me.

Laura Simpson

Hi Glen "Thanks for a most enjoyable and informative day, It answered all my questioned plus many more. Considering lunch was included I thought it was really excellent value for money."

David Stone

Hi Glen. I'm just dropping you a note to say how much I enjoyed the course today. You answered all my questions and gave me the confidence to go out and use my camera properly. Today has turned my box of expensive gadgets into top class photography equipment. Thanks!

Barry Cunliffe

This has been a great photography course and I know I can now take proper photographs instead of just snaps.

Highly Recommended.
