BASIC PHOTOGRAPHY COURSE
This is a ONE DAY course and runs from 9.30am to 4pm plus an extra hour from 4-5pm for those who wish to stay on for a bit of private tuition.
Dates for 2009 are now published and can be found by visiting course dates and status.
The cost of our courses in 2009 £175.00. This price includes a very good lunch with wine, all tuition, a set of notes and VAT. Real cost of tuition is therefore £135.00 per head.
This course takes place at our new Hungerford studios and is run by Richard Greenly. Visit our location to pin point us.
This course is designed for the member of your family who inevitably ends up holding the family camera at that vital family moment. It is a course for family snappers not David Bailey's. If you fall into this category and have a least one serviceable ear and one serviceable eye, I can improve your photography by 100% in just one day. Attendance on this course will greatly increase the amount of enjoyment you get from your photography. It will also enable you to read and understand your camera user manual!
The ideal camera for this course is a 35mm SLR, either film or digital. Compact cameras owners are very welcome and will get a great deal out of the day but there will however be quite a lot of knob twiddling practice for those with SLR Digital or Film cameras.
I keep the day as informal as possible and the talk is accompanied by a slide show and a full set of comprehensive notes.
