During our time we’ll develop these skills into a more refined product and work on developing a style to your work whilst increasing your portfolio and confidence. This is practical training for people who want real life experience as opposed to a training day. The skills you learn, the Photographs you take and our time together is real life so will be unscripted and adapting to the clients and environment around us.

Mentoring, Feedback and Advice
My training course has been designed from the ground up to make it unlike other training courses, I work on a 1 to 1 basis and the training covers both practical and classroom based learning as well as feedback on the work provided. Over the course of the training, we’ll look at : Camera Skills, Framing, Lighting and Exposure, Adobe Lightroom & Photoshop as well as putting these skills into practise at real weddings with real Bride & Grooms.
We’ll also discuss ideas for photographs, create a plan for wedding photography and then photograph the wedding. After the wedding feedback will be provided and we’ll look at what went right and what went wrong through detailed feedback allowing you to create a workable portfolio of real life work.
My training courses are a mixture of practical and classroom with lots of feedback along the way and is geared towards getting you recognised by a Wedding Photography trade association such as the SWPP.
