REVIEWS:
“I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone who wants to develop a portfolio. A really enjoyable weekend of art photography. I learned a lot about how to produce a consistent body of work.”
Meirion
“Thank you so much for such an amazing course! It was even more inspiring and interesting than I had hoped. It has made me want to start shooting again, and look at other photographers work again too. (After quitting it all a few years ago when I got sick of the fashion world!)
Now I have to see if I can ever create a distinctive style!
I raided my Dad’s camera collection this evening and found a couple of different ones to try!
Thank you for all of the links and extra info and I would love to do a darkroom workshop in the future. I will finally set up the equipment I have soon and see how far I get.
Thank you again for such a fun and inspiring course, and for so much invaluable advice and encouragement.”
