Landscape Photography Workshops

This course is popular with beginners so they can get to know their camera and leave auto mode firmly in the past. It's not just for beginners though, it's suitable for any level of photographer who wants to become more confident with their camera.
Training is usually run in and around the Chorley and Rivington areas but half day and full day workshops in the Lake District and the Peak District are also available.
Learning about your camera and its settings is important so you can be confident in achieving the results you want. The good news is that it's not actually too difficult, usually a complete beginner can gain the basic knowledge needed in a few hours or so.
My aim is to get you to move away from the fully automatic modes and have you controlling exposure and depth of field yourself.



Some topics that can be covered

. Understanding exposure
. ISO
. Aperture
. Shutter speeds
. Shooting modes: Programme, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority & Manual
. White balance
. RAW v JPG
. Auto focus modes
. The use of filters: CPL filters, Neutral density filters and graduated neutral density filters
. Software

Booking
If you are wishing to learn how to use your camera and have little or no prior knowledge then I suggest 2 to 4 hours with me is a good place to start. For some people that may well be enough to go on and figure the rest out for yourself, others may want a longer session or come back for further sessions. If you are unsure at all, please do message me to discuss.
