Introduction To Photography

One Day Workshop

We run this one-day workshop (10am - 4pm) a number of times throughout the year.

It is massively popular among beginners and those who may have owned a camera for a while, but have not had the opportunity to fully explore its potential.

In many ways, it is the perfect introduction to the hobby, tackling some of the most commonly confusing elements and explaining them in a systematic, visual and highly accessible way.

The most common feedback we get from this workshop is the brilliant simplicity of the presentation.

About this workshop

The Introduction To Photography workshop will teach you the fundamental building blocks of using your camera; from an overview of digital photography to understanding the function and side effects of adjusting the aperture, shutter speed and ISO (also known as the Exposure Triangle).

The workshop will help you get out of shooting in AUTO mode and you’ll learn how to avoid many of the common mistakes that new photographers make.

The dayâ€™s itinerary includes

Digital photography - explaining the terminology
The Aperture, depth of field and bokeh
Shutter Speed, minimum handheld shutter speeds
Understanding ISO, a simple explanation
Putting it all together: Exploring real-world examples
Why do some of your pictures come out too dark?
Why are some pictures so blurry?
PLUS loads of other nuggets of information

What kind of Camera do you need?

Almost any camera is suitable, but it probably favours those with interchangeable lenses like DSLR cameras or the new ‘Mirrorless’ technology cameras.

Suitable for owners of Canon, Fuji, Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic, Sony and Pentax cameras.

If you own a ‘bridge camera’, where the lens is not removable, but you have a long, built-in zoom, you will also find most of the workshop extremely helpful (approx 85%)
