Difficulty/Equipment
Fitness Level Required - Easy-Moderate
Easy - Moderate: meaning that most people with average fitness should comfortably deal with the short walks (15-30mins) and occasional steps or gradients.
Experience Level - Beginner to Intermediate
The class and workshop are suitable for any level, including beginners. Ideally, you will understand exposure, and aperture and be shooting in Aperture Priority or Manual Exposure mode.
All participants receive 1-2-1 tuition and support on practical workshops so that tutoring can be tailored to the individual’s needs and experience.
You will be provided with a guide beforehand to set your camera up in preparation and ensure you have everything required
Equipment for this workshop
What to bring:
Your camera, fully charged battery and spare battery if you have one.
Remote Release Cable to take/time shots without touching the camera.
Wide angle (10-24mm) is good for framing large vistas and architecture. A zoom with any range between 24-200mm is good for isolating details at distance if required.
Tripod (essential) I can hire you one for the session at the cost of £10 but let me know in advance if you want one.
Sensible footwear – it can sometimes be muddy and sticky underfoot so walking boots or trainers with good grip are recommended.
A large sandwich bag and an elastic band to wrap around your camera and lens if we have light rain
Water, snacks or whatever you need for the event duration
Raincoats or equivalent – we might catch a shower!
If you have any specific questions regarding equipment please contact me directly or take a look at my recommended products page.

My Approach
My Objective: Is to Improve Your Photography
“A good teacher gives you a gift for the rest of your life.”
That doesn’t mean “trophy” images – it’s the means to create images you like.
I aim to.
Provide you with an educational, fun, safe, well organised experience.
1. Help you improve your camera craft – settings and use of functions.
2. Help you use your equipment more effectively – lenses, tripods, filters etc.
3. Help you improve your creative thinking and composition.
4. Help you develop an approach to improving your landscape photography.
On this workshop Alan will guide you through:
Thinking more about composition
Using colour, texture, shape and more
Framing and designing the shot
Using camera settings to vary the effects
Learn the impact of using long exposure, shallow depth of field and other techniques.
Recognise correct lighting, contrast and texture to shape and form each shot.
Work with Alan to review your shots, try new ideas and improve your photography.
