Group sizes are restricted to four people when the photography class is at my home (CV4 9HW) and up to eight when run from Kenilworth.

  • Suppose you are new to photography and a DSLR or want to improve your understanding. In that case, the Week one Get off Auto class and five-week Beginners Photography Classes will teach you digital photography basics and give you the perfect foundations. Most clients follow on from this to do the photo editing with a Lightroom course (book both courses and get money off - beginners camera courses ) to learn how to edit images with a professional look. You can also combine classroom theory with practical tuition on location with a photography workshop.

  • If you know the basics of camera settings, composition, and editing, there is an excellent range of courses and classes to improve and refine your skills. You could take that next step in photo editing to learn how to add polish and emotion/balance to your existing images. Or consider pursuing a photographic qualification with the RPS.

  • Flexible. Learn photography in the areas you need it at your own pace.

    The one-to-one private photography tuition is for aspiring photographers who prefer personal tuition and wish to have their learning designed specifically to their needs. Is this for me? Private lessons are available to photographers of any skill level who feel one-to-one attention will improve their learning. The benefit is it’s based on what you want to learn and delivered at a time suited to your availability. Lessons can include camera technique, photo editing, practical location shoots or a mixture. There are no other students - the time you pay for is dedicated to your style and pace of learning. I also offer the standard courses as a block of four x 2hr sessions for the price of three.

  • All photography lessons are structured and supported by class notes with a mix of theoretical explanations and practical exercises for you to learn from and assess your work by a professional photographer.  If you are unable to attend in Coventry you could consider the free online photography course
