My one-to-one photography courses are bought by people for themselves or as a gift for someone else. Two-to-one is also possible.
During the four or six hour course I will take you through many of the key principles of photography as well as exploring the important features of your camera.
The course includes my intensive lesson in the principles of aperture, shutter speed and ISO. I have developed a unique approach to the use of Manual mode, which you won’t find anywhere else. Photographers at all levels find it useful.
No matter what type of camera you’re using – a tiny compact camera, a bridge camera, a film camera, a DSLR, mirrorless or a top of the range full frame sensor camera, I can help you to get more out of it.
The four hour or six hour course takes place at your home or office. We can do the course in Manchester or Liverpool city centre, or any other convenient location.
This course is useful for people who have recently bought a camera and don’t know how to use it. If you already have some knowledge, it can help to fill in the gaps.
It can be a treat for yourself, or a birthday gift or Christmas present for someone else.

“Had a 1:1 lesson and it was excellent. I was a complete beginner and left feeling confident, having learnt the basics of photography and how to use my camera. I would highly recommend.”

Simply talking about photography with an interested and knowledgeable tutor can be very beneficial. During the course you will gain information, confidence and inspiration that you won’t get from friends and family, from books or group courses. The benefits will remain for a very long time.
I love giving photography tuition because I love meeting new people, sharing my knowledge and helping them to improve
