Course description
Our Summer School is aimed at complete beginners who own a digital SLR or Mirrorless camera and want to maximise its potential. Delivered in the day and in a classroom environment, participants will be taught via a combination of theory and practical exercises, both inside the classroom and outdoors.
Each participant on this course will begin by learning how to fully operate their camera as well as understand the fundamentals of photography, such as how to make correct exposures and understand the relationship between aperture, shutter speed and ISO. Participants will then go into exposure in-depth, understanding histograms, white balance, shooting RAW, light metering and more. Also covered is lenses, filters and focal lengths as well as understanding perspective and composition using a combination of creative and technical knowledge.
The final session will involve an outdoor practical assignment where participants can put what they have learnt into practice. This will be followed by a review of images back in the classroom, as well as discussing storing, cataloguing and backing up images and the best programs for post production such as Photoshop and Lightroom.
Participants will be provided with a course handout and are also invited to bring along an image for discussion.

★★★★★ Simon Waterhouse
‘Really great course which teaches you everything you need to know about your DSLR camera and how to get the most out of it. I went there because I use photography for work, but after the course, I really wanted to take up photography as a hobby, it was just so inspiring!’
★★★★★ Anne Nordheim
‘I was really pleased, I came away from the day with all the fundamental tools to inspire me to use my camera properly and get off the auto mode. Our tutor was fabulous- enthusiastic, patient, explained everything really well and made the day fun. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to move up a gear in using your camera and being more creative behind the lens.’
