Photography tuition and training

"You have spent a lot of money on your equipment but want to get more from your photography. I can help you achieve this."

Personal tuition - digital photography

Personal tuition on travel photography helping attendees to get better control over their Digital SLR cameras. Hands on practical advice on all aspects of the digital photography process - planning shots, capturing images, digital processing and printing techniques. Half day and full day sessions available. Tuition will be tailored to your specific needs which we will assess by telephone in advance. I recommend combining classroom based tuition with practical advice on a shoot, culminating in the processing of images shot during the day. The emphasis throughout is on the practical. One to one tuition with Martin. Tailored to your needs and experience. Or share the cost by bringing a friend.
