Street Photography & Camera Handling (digi SLR cameras)

WHAT IS IT?
The Street Photography & Camera Handling workshop will equip you with essential camera handling tips and a correct approach to expand your photographic knowledge. We will boost your skill set giving you the creative freedom to successfully capture the city streets.

You will never see the streets or your camera in the same light again!

WHO IS IT FOR?
• You know your aperture from your shutter speed and want to use them instinctively, allowing you to work effectively and creatively with your camera.
•You're proud of your camera but not of all your pictures.
•You've got ideas and projects but find yourself missing the technical depth or experience to realise them.

If you have answered yes to any of the above then this workshop is for you!

HOW IS THE COURSE TAUGHT?
The two day course is taught in small groups (no more than 6 people). You will learn how to capture the delightful East End (Shoreditch, Spitalfields, Brick Lane) the way the you see it, and perhaps more importantly how you want your audience to see it. The small numbers allow for discreet street photography and personalised tuition.
Everyone will gain something regardless of his/her specific approach or technical level. The workshop will combine concise classroom tuition and outdoor adventures, with an emphasis on putting into practice the skills gained immediately - supported by helpful guidance, care and attention.

You will carry out a number of challenges designed to exercise different techniques, practice new skills and encourage creative experimentation. Individuals will have the opportunity to pursue the ideas and techniques that most interest them with as much guidance as is required.
There will be opportunities to review the photos from the day and the time between the course days can be used for further practice with the opportunity for feedback on the second day.
