One to One Workshop - Autumn in the Lake District: Join Andy for the day to experience and capture the vibrant colour and beauty of the Lake District in autumn.

Autumn is recognised everywhere as a special time of year to capture the landscape in all its glory. The Lake District is no exception. The fells and woodlands are transformed into a tapestry awash with reds, yellows and browns of every hue. It is the season to capture sparkling reflections in the lakes and swirling mist clinging to the lakeside forests.

This course offers the opportunity to discover this spectacle under the expert guidance and tuition of an experienced and dedicated landscape photographer. We will explore how to use neutral density filters to generate mirror-like reflections, polarising filters to enhance colour and tips on composition which will bring your ideas to life.

locations on the agenda include Tarn Hows and Tom Heights with grand views towards the Langdale Pikes and the magnificent woodland of Manesty Park at the southern tip of Derwent Water. Locations are negotiable if you have particular preferences.

The session will be limited to just one photographer with an extra guest coming for free and will involve some walking. It will be an early start to make the most of morning light and any potential mist. If you prefer this on a one-to-one basis, this can be arranged.

DSLR’s, tripods and ND filters are available for loan, but these are limited so if you have your own, please bring them along. Call Andy on 07979 273683

Drive over the sands and causeway to Holy Island and prepare yourself to enter another world. Lying just a few miles off the Northumberland coast, Holy Island is cut off twice-daily from the rest of the world by fast-moving tides. Both an island and a picturesque village, Holy Island carries a wealth of history within its tidal walls. Join me for a day wandering around the island visiting all the best locations as well as the slightly more hidden gems of the island. Get your camera ready to take some stunning landscape images throughout the day. Full guidance on settings with loads of hints and tips given all day from myself, a professional photographer.

Join us on the rugged east coast at Gibraltar Point, which is a National Nature Reserve, for a morning of creative coastal photography. With it being a nature reserve, there's likely to be an opportunity to photograph the wildlife as well as the scenery.

This is a relaxed, fun group session running from 8.30am until around midday, providing the opportunity to learn, build, and practice your photography skills with other like-minded people.

You'll learn how to create and expose for those stunning smooth water and smoky sea images, how to use polarising and ND filters, and we will also look at the art of composition and how to best capture the Nature Reserve.

There will be a Zoom presentation in the week leading up to the workshop, usually on a Tuesday evening, and the practical part of the workshop, which lasts around 3.5 hours, will take place on the morning of 31st May at Gibraltar Point. There will be plenty of time on the day to review your images; however, you can also opt for a short personal review over Zoom. Joining instructions will be emailed to you around a week beforehand, so you know where to meet, what time to arrive, and what to bring.

Filters are available to borrow on the day; however, please bring a tripod with you to make the most of the practical session.
