​beyond Basics for beginners

New to photography and just invested in your first proper camera, then the beyond Basics for beginners workshop is an ideal introduction on how to achieve a better photograph and covers everything from the basic settings and learning about light to how to compose great picture. 

The Workshop is broken into three​ segments :

• Learning the basics and beyond - classroom based
• Photo walk - to tryout some of the techniques 
• Critique - classroom based - look at photos just taken by student on photo walk and assess what was good and what went wrong. Self critique is the best way to learn and improve skills when it comes to photography.

​
What's included : 

• A 10 page printed beyond Basics for beginners workshop guide to refer back to
• Guided photo walk
• A 12" x 10" Limited Edition Print by Greg Bottle

Hi Greg,
"From Ben and I a huge thank you for such an interesting and inspirational workshop this morning. My camera battery is all charged ready to go. It was so interesting having advice on how to work with differing light. Thank you also for the kind gifts which we will both treasure. I hope you found the experience useful for you to continue to offer more workshops! "

Kind regards, Sue
