We are realistic about what you can learn and achieve in a one day workshop and have a set plan to ensure you walk away happy and very confident that you have the right platform to build on your photographic knowledge.

We start with the basics of aperture, shutter and ISO, their function and relationship of each and how they relate to correct exposure. We discuss depth of field, slow and fast exposure, panning and apply specific practical indoor/outdoor exercises to reinforce your learning.
