Confused by all the buttons and settings? Not sure what aperture, shutter speed or ISO actually do?
This relaxed, practical beginner workshop is designed to help you understand the fundamentals of photography using the camera you already own - whether it’s digital, film, mirrorless, DSLR or something older you’ve inherited and want to bring back to life.
Bring your camera along and, in a small group of at least two people (max 6), we’ll work through the basics together, building confidence and helping you understand how your camera works in practice.
Understanding your camera’s controls and settings
Aperture, shutter speed and ISO - explained simply
How exposure works and how the settings work together
Moving beyond Auto mode
Focus, light and common beginner mistakes
Practical guidance tailored to your own camera
And if time allows, we’ll spend some time shooting together so you can start to feel how these ideas work in practice.
Complete beginners
People wanting to get off Auto mode
Anyone confused by camera settings
Those curious about moving into film or analogue photography
No prior knowledge needed - just bring a working camera, your questions and some good energy.
A practical understanding of the foundations of photography - and the confidence to pick up almost any camera and begin using it intentionally.
Minimum two participants per session.
Under 18’s must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
