About this Event
Whether you are a beginner or keen amateur the workshop will provide a framework of support for those interested in connecting with nature through photography. We will look at capturing shapes, contrast, tone, texture, and composition and get you to consider what inspires you and why. Whether it’s the detail of a beautiful old growth oak tree, close up shots of flowers and fungi, or the spectacular grassland expanse with the back drop of the London skyline - there are countless opportunities to capture creative images on The Heath.
The day will be split into two sessions:
The morning will be spent at a specially chosen site in the 700+ acres of London’s Hampstead Heath, with ample time and support provided for photography. The second half of the day will be spent at the Kenwood Dairy, group discussion and printing. Participants will take home a beautiful, exhibition quality print from the day.
Timetable for the day:
8.30am: Meet at the Kenwood Dairy.
8.40am: Leave for a brisk walk to the chosen location and a chance to meet and greet group members along the way.
9.00am: Shooting commences - The aim is to provide an environment to explore creativity and share ideas, take your time focusing on a specific subject or viewpoint and have lots of fun in the process. I will be on hand to help and advise with any technical difficulties and cater to your individual needs. Tea and coffee will be provided.
12.30am: Pack up and make way back to the Dairy.
1.00pm-1.25pm: Bring your own lunch as we select images from the morning’s shoot.
1.25-3.55pm: Guided, basic image adjustments in Photoshop, group discussion and feedback, final image selection and printing.
4.00pm: Workshop Closes.
