Half Day or Full Day Photo Workshop in Northampton
Overview
We will cover the basics of photography including shooting modes, composition (including the rule of thirds), use of filters and other equipment.
You’ll be practising your photography as we have a walk about town in a group photographing buildings, details and scenery.
Full Day Only:
Lunch: We’ll take a break for lunch in a pub or café (this is not included in the workshop price).
Critique session: If you have some prints you would like me to have a look at and critique, please bring them along and we will look at their merits and discuss ways they might be improved (maximum 5 prints per person)
Some more photography.
Equipment
Just bring your usual kit, but most importantly bring your SLR Camera & standard lens – whatever you normally use.
A tripod is recommended but not essential.
I will forward a list of other equipment you might like to bring with confirmation of your booking. Please don’t go out and buy anything especially for the workshop. I will be bringing all my kit and am happy for you to have a play. I am also happy to advise you on any purchases you might be considering or new purchases that you’re having trouble with.
Please wear sensible shoes that you’ll be comfortable walking about in all day.
Please Note: Workshop content will vary depending on group size, experience of individuals and the weather. This workshop is suitable for people who love photography and want to share that with other people whilst (hopefully!) learning something and having some fun.

Further Info & Booking
If after reading the information below about my workshops, you decide you'd like to join me for some photography, please complete the form at the bottom of this page by filling out all the required fields and as many of the others as you'd like. I'll use the information you provide to modify the workshop to ensure you get the most out of it, so the more info you give me the better.
I will then be touch with any information you require, available dates or for a chat (if you leave your phone number).
These workshops are only for those using an SLR camera (Single Lens Reflex) - basically a camera with a detachable, changeable lens which you can attach filters to. This type of camera gives the user more control than a compact point and shoot.
As a landscape photographer, I am often away from my office for several days at a time so if I haven't replied to your enquiry within a few days, it's not because I haven't received your email, just that I have escaped from my computer for a while.
If you would like to book a workshop with me, you can do so via phone or email. Payment is required after you have made the booking (please see details below). Confirmation and further details about the workshop will be sent to you following receipt of payment.
If you would like to purchase a workshop as a gift for someone, gift vouchers are available to buy online in the 'shop' or if you prefer you can pay by cheque and I'll post the gift voucher to you or the recipient via snail mail.
Workshop Times - I'm flexible!
I am self employed and work from home and am therefore very flexible with workshop times. It is impossible for me to post a list of dates on my website when I am available for a workshop particularly those on a week day and especially the one hour workshop - as I am basically available every day, often at short notice (any excuse to escape from processing images at my computer for a few hours!). That said, I'm also happy to book workshops months in advance if required. It is far easier for me to work around your work and family commitments. Get your diary out and if you have some free time, why not get in touch.
