Beginner’s Photography Workshop in Canterbury | Learn Manual Mode

If you’ve got a camera and feel like you’re not quite getting the results you want, this workshop is exactly where you need to start. This 3-hour beginner session in Canterbury is designed to take you out of auto mode and give you the confidence to understand and control your camera properly.

What to Expect:

We start with a relaxed introduction to get a feel for your experience level and what you want from the session. From there, I’ll walk you through the key foundations of photography in a way that makes sense—then we go straight out and put it into practice.

This is a hands-on workshop. You’ll be taking photos throughout, not just listening.

I’ll be there to guide you, adjust your settings, and explain things in real time so it actually clicks. I’ll guide you step-by-step so you not only learn the fundamentals, but actually understand how to apply them in real situations. No jargon. No overwhelm. Just clear, practical teaching that helps you improve straight away.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to move off auto mode with confidence
• Understanding aperture, shutter speed, and ISO
• How to get sharper, better exposed images
• Basic composition techniques that make a difference instantly
• How to start shooting in manual or semi-manual modes
  

Who This Is For:

• Complete beginners with a new camera
• Anyone stuck using auto mode
• People who want to understand photography properly
• Those looking to build confidence and consistency
  

Why This Workshop Works:

I teach photography in a way that makes it simple, practical, and usable.

You won’t leave confused—you’ll leave understanding your camera and knowing how to use it.

This is about building real confidence, not just learning settings.

Spaces are limited to keep the session personal and give everyone the support they need.

If you’re serious about improving your photography, this is the best place to start.

Book your place now and take control of your camera.

Info: and grab a coffee

Info: Whether you are using a DSLR or mirrorless or a bridge camera, its time to look at what each of those buttons and dials do

Info: We go through the exposure triangle and how aperture, shutter speed and ISO work together to process and image, composition, and answering such questions as: - What is AV Mode? - What is TV/shutter priority mode? How do I take photos in manual mode?

Info: Time to take that theory and put into practice. We put together what you have learnt about your camera and the theory and into simple and fun exercises so you learn to get the most out of your camera and the knowledge to produce the images you've always wanted.
