For great value photographic holidays and workshops your looking at the right website. The holidays and workshops are tailored to your needs whether beginner, experienced, single or with a partner. They are not group workshops or theory based, they are about taking and creating images in great locations in the UK & France. Digital photography is more than just understanding what buttons to press on the camera, its understanding the total digital workflow, from capture to exhibition quality print. The workshops have been running since 2004 and have proved to be very popular. Seeing your work finished as either a framed fine art print, a gallery wrapped canvas finished in my unique style or as a large format coffee table book produced using Adobe InDesign to create a totally professional layout, is the icing on the cake. I operate five different holidays and workshops that cover a range of styles from Urban Landscape to Winter Landscapes from Fine Art to Still life. On all my workshops we shoot and edit especially for the output we are creating, a composition that may suit a framed print, may not suit a canvas or book. Working like this focuses your attention on the photography, editing techniques and presentation, as with any workshop there will always be an element of overlap on each workshop. The holidays are especially suitable for single people, no supplements, no sharing just 1:1 tuition in photography and editing. Great food, great wine or beers and a total learning experience.
The French workshops are now full for the rest of 2009, Bookings for the UK workshops are now being taken. They start in October 2009. To enquire about the French workshops in 2010 email me at fotocoursesuk@gmail.com
