Photography Tuition, One to One - We start from where you are, working out your current ability and what direction you want to take. From just fun, to commercial work - whatever your requirements, I work with you at an easy to understand pace, from beginner to the experienced photographer. We'll take a trip to a local landscape (lighthouse, windmill, shipwreck, boats, trees etc) and practice techniques that will improve your skills in capturing the glorious landscape.

If we start at 9am, we'll probably go to a few local landscape locations, then lunch at around 12.30 for half an hour (please bring a packed lunch), carrying on through the afternoon until about 3pm when we summarize the day. Tuition Days can be arranged around Dawn and Dusk if preferred.

 Locations we could visit include: -
Burnham's wooden lighthouse
Edithmead Church
Cheddar Gorge

In case of bad weather, we can work indoors, using the same techniques with flower photography. Please bring about 20 images or a selection of prints, as we can then do some critiques or Photoshop training - whatever suits you. Also, please bring your camera instruction manual and stout footwear (walking boots are ideal).

Normally we cover the following, but it's your time, so it all depends on your requirements: -

  •  Exposure
  •  Aperture/Shutter speed
  •  RAW files
  •  Composition
  •  ISO
  •  Image quality
  •  Advanced techniques
  •  Camera settings

Photoshop tuition, One to One - Photoshop is a massive subject, and with 10 years experience I can cover almost any photographic subject required. Photoshop training is done at my office, or your home or office (however my travel time is then deducted from the tuition period). I use a PC but can train on MAC if required.


Please bring a CD with at around 20 images on, preferably including Raw images


 
 

‘Dear Tony,

I would like to sincerely thank you for the wonderful day I had yesterday. Although the weather and light was against us from the start at least it stayed dry!

I thoroughly enjoyed the locations we visited and I will return at a later date when the light is more favourable and see if I can create some eye catching images.
After your expert guidance and advice I feel much more confident in setting up my camera equipment and going for it!
I feel I have learnt a lot from our day, composition, exposure, setting up, test shots and above all more inspired and motivated to get out there and enjoy my photography.

Your professional approach and friendly manner does you credit, as at the end of the day I felt as if I had made a new friend’.
Mr S.B.T, Bristol, UK


“Hi Tony, Thank you so much for a great tuition day. I felt really happy as I drove home. You gave me some much needed confidence and belief in my abilities. I learnt such a lot but didn’t feel overloaded with information. You went at my pace. I have lots to practice and investigate which I will enjoy. So 10/10 for your teaching skills. Thank you again”. J.H, Teacher, Bath, England
