This one day photographic workshop workshop will cover some of the most dramatic scenery the North of England has to offer.

And when it comes to beautiful beaches the list goes on!

What to expect on this photograph workshop?

Flamborough has a wealth of photographic honey spots tightly packed into a few miles. There are historic lighthouses, dramatic sea stacks, towering chalk cliffs and wonderful geological details. We will be very busy all day and you will not be disappointed with this workshop!

The one day workshop structure -

A typical workshop day often includes tuition on the following subjects; camera set-up, live view and accurate focusing, of field preview, effective tripod setup, shooting manual, bespoke and one to one demonstrations of exposure, metering, and bracketing, focusing, depth of field (known as Hyperfocal distance). The creative uses of both shutter speed and apertures, use of filters, both exposure balancing (Neutral Density Graduated) and creative effects (Polarisers, Neutral Density). Whatever you’re understanding I assure you that I will help you advance both technically and creatively and ensure a bespoke learning experience depends on individual needs or requests.

Composition will form an important part of the workshop as its key to powerful images and there will be demonstrations, critiques and healthy discussions. Some topics we can cover; what makes a good image, the rules of composition, when to follow them and when to break them, how to win camera club competitions, use of depth, scale, texture, perspective, colour and psychology. Other popular topics of discussion include; location planning, lighting conditions, support material and communities, commercial work, Photoshop and, image philosophy.

This workshop main aim is designed to improve your technical and conceptual skills so you can be confident when shooting your own work. Oh yes there is always like minded and supportive fellow photographers for plenty of laughs and enjoyable experiences in wonderful soundings.

Fitness level - Please be aware you will need to be reasonably confident in beach rockpool locations, as this workshop involves some short walking over sometimes difficult rocks and there is a number of steep descents that need ascending. We will give plenty of time for this and take it at leisurely pace. This workshop also covers some uneven and potentially slippy ground, alongside some beach walking. I always respect an individual’s personal limitations and due to the small group sizes this shouldn’t be a problem. If you need to discuss any concerns and need further information, please don’t hesitate to contact me, I will be happy to help.
