Latest course reviews...

Excellent Course

The trainer was clearly very experienced and provided a well thought out course. I liked that he was adapted to be most useful to those in attendance after asking us what type of photography we were interested in and what cameras we had. It was a bespoke course for us. The course was very useful and the technical bits were explained in an easy to understand way, we were encouraged to ask questions and this helped to clarify any information we were unsure of.
