Two Day Introduction to DSLR Photography
"The two day intensive course was perfect for me as I work full time and couldn't commit to a longer course. It's amazing how much we all learned over two days! Small class sizes meant help was available any time you needed it, and spending most of the day out taking shots ensured we learned by practicing ourselves, not listening to a lecture."

“Many thanks Peter for great course, not long arrived home, seeing lines & shapes everywhere now. Enjoyed the weekend, will definitely go back to Manchester, was so much to photograph. Thanks also to the rest of your team we had a lovely mix of people.”
Carol Schlijper
“Many thanks again for the course this weekend-it was fantastic and I cannot believe how much more confident I feel about using my camera! I woke up this morning wishing I was getting to spend the day studying photography all over again- but no such luck! Here I am trying to concentrate on my early childhood studies but just keep thinking about taking photos!”

Two Day Intermediate Photography Course
“Hi Peter. Great weekend and great teacher. Couldn't have hoped to meet nicer people either and I hope we can create a bit of a photography support group here. Look forward to seeing you again soon.”

“I really enjoyed the night photography course. I was unsure how different it would be from the Introductory course, but it has opened up a whole new avenue of photography for me. I learnt a lot of new techniques for taking pictures in low light that built on what I had learnt on the introduction to photography course. It was so much fun, even though it was very cold.”
Kate Raine
“AN "ENLIGHTENING" EVENING: The Night Photography course was run on a bitterly cold November evening but the warmth of the welcome by Peter, Will and Pauline made everything seem okay.
The range of different techniques and varied subject matter made it all a very interesting and enjoyable evening.
The evening passed quickly despite the cold and was a valuable addition to knowledge previously gained.”
Bill Dobson
“I just wanted to get in touch and let you know how much I enjoyed the introductory course that you ran over the weekend of 20th/21st November.
I’ve been taking photos using small compact cameras for a few years (always using automatic settings!) and what I learnt over the weekend opened my eyes in terms of what is creatively possible using manual settings.
I don’t have a Digital SLR but I do have a high end “bridge” camera (Canon SX30is) and still learnt a great deal from the course.”

“Thanks for yesterday. I had a great day and took some pictures I am very pleased with!
I had the chance last night to my parter what we had been up to. She was well impressed. Most telling comment? "You would never normally have taken a lot of these photographs".”

“I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for Saturday. I had a great day and learnt so much - it makes such a difference having someone offering advice whilst on the go. And you're right - by 9pm I was totally done in!
Now I just need to find more time to practice!
Thanks again - and hope to see you soon”
