From blazing sunshine to the stormy Irish Sea, there will always be breath taking vistas to be captured on and around the beautiful Isle of Man.
My relaxed method of teaching, will allow you the time, to move and breath slowly, to see what you would not normally see. You will learn to master your camera’s manual settings. You will learn about composition, and how to use certain techniques and rules of image making to create wonderful compositons. These photography workshops are not just for digital SLR camera users, they are for everyone and anyone who enjoys taking pictures. Maybe you love taking pictures of sunsets, sunrises, bad weather or wild landscapes. Maybe it’s people and animals, our families are pets provide great subjects to photograph. If you would like to build on your knowledge of photography, and learn how to improve the images you are capturing through which lens it may be, come along and join me.
Local experience and understanding of when and where to be will see you achieving your photographic goals; with almost 15 years experience as a professional photographer, having worked alongside a plethora of lifestyle magazines, large and small businesses, along with a consistent series of accolades including finalist positions in International Garden Photographer of the Year 2018 and 2019, the Monochrome Awards 2020, plus highly commended images on an almost annual basis in the prestigious Travel Photographer of the Year and Outdoor Photographer of the Year awards, you will have access to a wealth of understanding and experience when it comes down to capturing and ‘developing’ stunning land, seascape and wildlife images. What’s more you are going to have fun! As I share you will learn all that’s needed when it comes to the technicalities of photography, allowing you to capture the world in your very own style.
