A full day of learning, shooting, and growing confidence with your camera.

Beginner Photography Workshop

Ever picked up your camera and thought… where do I even start?

You’re not alone.

This one-day Beginner Photography Workshop is designed for people who want to feel comfortable behind the camera without getting lost in all the technical jargon. No pressure, no egos, just a relaxed day in Manchester learning the essentials, practising with your camera, and building confidence shot by shot.

We’ll keep it simple: how to use your settings, how to find good light, how to compose a photo that actually works. Then we’ll head out together on a guided photo walk where you can put it all into practice, with support right there when you need it.

By the end of the day, you’ll walk away with a set of photos you’re proud of, the confidence to keep experimenting, and a clear idea of what to practise next.
