Review of Excellent Course

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: FEBRUARY 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Image Composition

I attended this course recently and found it excellent. The technical advice on the use of Nikon cameras was very good and has expanded my knowledge. It will help me with my D500. The information on image composition was very good and there were opportunities to get some practice around the centre. Pity about the bad weather. I enjoyed the course and am thinking of booking another.

Going back to the golden age of steam.

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: JANUARY 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Portraits - Steam Trains Didcot

Neil and his assistant gave an obligatory briefing on safety and then explained what we could expect from the course. He gave his usual insight on exposures and ISO settings and took a few questions. The atmosphere was created by the actors, props and lighting. The smoke machines were used for good effect and Neil and the team were happy to move things around when requested. As on all courses, Neil was on hand to analyse your photographs and make suggestions.

Learn the secrets to shooting in low light

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: JANUARY 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Low Light - London Southbank

Capturing the perfect photo at night requires thought, skill and experimentation.

The Nikon course lead by Ricci Chera was brilliant, really helped me improve low light photography as we put into practice the exposure triangle, ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture to get the right balance for each photo.

Thanks to the Nikon course I have loads of great night shots of London!

Learning something new everytime

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: JANUARY 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Low Light - London Southbank

Ricci really knows his stuff and Nikon cameras. Low light photography is, in itself, fairly simple - point and shoot using a long exposure. But knowing what additional settings to set up to enhance the end result is invaluable. Got some great shots on the evening which I know far better than I would have taken without Ricci's input.

COURSE: Experience Day: Low Light - London Southbank

It was a great course despite heavy rain through most of the outdoor session! Perfect balance between theory and lots of opportunities to practice. Both Neil and Ricci were very helpful and I'm looking forward to taking part in more of their courses.

COURSE: Experience Day: Portrait Photography

I arrived at the Nikon School and was made to feel at home, we helped ourselves to Tea and Coffee at the beginning and in intervals.
The course was great fun, with practical activities to engage in the basic methods for Photographing various types of Portraiture.
I feel that I am now easily able to apply simple techniques to everyday Photography.

Portrait photography

RATING: 4.8 of 5
DATE: DECEMBER 2018

COURSE: Experience Day: Portrait Photography

Very interactive and plenty of opportunity to ask question of Neil throughout the day. Really interesting to learn about lighting and how you can manage any situation with speedlights. It was also good to speak to the model about how to work with a subject and get the best from them. Overall a great day.

Great opportunity to photograph London at night

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: DECEMBER 2018

COURSE: Experience Day: Low Light - London Southbank

I appreciated learning about low-light photography technique in the first part of the course, then having the opportunity to put it to practice by going out and taking some shots of the city at night in a small group. The instructor is a very skilled photographer and showed us some great spots to take pictures. Definitely recommended.
