Z8 AF

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: NOVEMBER 2024

COURSE: Mastering Z 8 Pt. 2

The best part of the course is the "voice over" of Neil, explaining which options to ignore, what are great tricks and re-education on the rules of camera settings with high resolution mirrorless cameras. Very insightful.

Beautiful waterfalls in the Dales

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: NOVEMBER 2024

COURSE: Experience Day: Landscapes - Yorkshire Waterfalls

Another really good course with Neil full of learning.

Neil always makes sure you get the most out of the day and out of your camera. He will help find the shot, guide you to set up your camera, find even better compositions and achieve your vision for each waterfall.

His knowledge and ability to find the best shots is inspiring.

Thank you Neil, as always I've got some fantastic images.

Red Squirrels everywhere!

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: NOVEMBER 2024

COURSE: Experience Day: Wildlife - Red Squirrels

It's the second time I've attended this workshop and it doesn't disappoint. The squirrels really put on a jumping show for us and I managed to get some stunning reflection pool shots.

Neil was always on hand to help us achieve the best from our cameras and get the shots we wanted. He also made sure we all had a chance to photograph at the reflection pool and in the woodland hide at least twice.

A fantastic experience.

An Astro course just at the right time!

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: NOVEMBER 2024

COURSE: How to: Astrophotography

This course came just as the right time as a week or so after I was travelling to Iceland for some Aurora chasing.


Neil shared a lot of useful information and information that made me question how I already approach Astro photography and Aurora. All put into practise when I went to Iceland. I even added a Nikkor Z 14-24mm f2.8 as a rental and left my Nikkor 20mm f1.8 at home. Suffice it to save that lens jumped to the top of my wish list after returning!

I recently attended a bespoke course on the Nikon

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: NOVEMBER 2024

COURSE: Mastering Z 8 Pt. 1

It is incredibly insightful. Neil was exceptionally knowledgeable and tailored the session to accommodate all questions, making it feel personalised. I picked up nuanced insights that would have taken months, if not years, of field use to discover. This course is highly recommended for everyone—from beginners to advanced professionals as it offers something valuable for all. For Z8 users, it’s indispensable, diving deep into the camera’s capabilities beyond any book or manual.

Studley Royal Deer Rut

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: NOVEMBER 2024

COURSE: Experience Day: Wildlife - Studley Royal Deer Rut

An instructive, informative, well organized day that allowed many opportunities for learning and obtaining photographs you can be pleased with. Neil, as always extremely enthusiastic and helpful. Just listening to him tell participants what camera settings he was using as he lined up his photograph was hugely helpful on it's own. It is a day well worth participating in, in a beautiful setting with no shortage of photo opportunities with constant help available if that is what you are looking

Great course!

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: NOVEMBER 2024

COURSE: Mastering Z 6 III Pt. 1

Over the last couple of years I have come know Ricci’s delivery of knowledge and information of all things Nikon. I also follow him on YouTube. Ambassadors like Ricci and Neil are valuable additions to one’s whole photography journey in my opinion. My personal learning journey owes a lot to Ricci’s and Neil’s expertise but also their ability to respond to any question without judgement. Simply knowing they are there to answer questions anytime is both reassuring and somewhat personable.
