As someone who had only ever used Auto mode, I applaud Simon and Lisa for teaching me how to take control of my camera.

Photography can feel overwhelming but it doesn’t need to be. You just need the right educators a little time and some great food and drink thrown in to bring it all together.

Whether you’ve been shooting for a while or are a beginner just wanting to improve your current understanding, our Living Lens Photographic Workshop will teach you digital photography basics and give you a solid foundation helping to improve your images immediately.

 

We will cover everything from camera settings, camera setup, location setup and composition through to editing your images to give them a professional look.

 

We will visit some of the most stunning locations in Wales and side-by-side we will show you exactly how to ‘get the shot’: What settings to use and when, how to adapt to changing light, what to look for and what to focus on to create professional engaging images that you’ll want to share.

 

The course is only available to a limited number of 8-12 clients to ensure that each client gets our full attention. But, the classes are just half the fun! Our workshop location has to be seen to be believed. We’ve secured a beautiful location from where to teach, offering unique accommodation (Covid-Compliant), and a private cinema to view and critique images. You’ll be served gourmet meals in the evening prepared from locally sourced Welsh produce. Great wine is thrown in for good measure. Read on below for the whole picture.

Do You Need Special Gear?

The simple answer is no!

Our courses are focused on proving you the key skills and techniques to allow you to capture and share impactive and engaging images, irrespective of the camera equipment you are using. At the end of the day, we believe it's the photographer holding the camera that makes the difference between a shot that is just 'OK' and a shot that makes you go 'WOW!"
