Photography Workshops and Mentoring in Aberdeen
IMPROVE YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY SKILLS…
Is your camera gathering dust in the cupboard, because you are unsure how to unleash its full potential?
Let’s change that! Get those batteries charged and start enjoying photography again!
Come along to one of my photography workshops and let me help you improve your skills, teach you new techniques and help you become a more confident photographer!
Photography is a lot of fun. It’s a great hobby to get out of the house and capture memories, but isn’t necessarily the easiest skill to learn, even basic cameras have so many buttons and different functions, where do you even start… I promise, once you understand your camera and photography basics, and you put in the work to practice what you learned, it’ll all start making sense and your images will improve.
