Away with the Birds

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: APRIL 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Wildlife - Birds of Prey

Flying with exotic birds of prey. What a day, encounters with a Bald Eagle, “no it wasn't bald”. Having my head gently caressed by the silent wing of a Great Grey Owl the ghost of the forest as it flew by. Hearing the gentle purr of a New Zealand LittleOwl. Joining Black kites as they gambled for food in the warm spring sun. Watching Secretary Bird trying to dispatch a rubber snake, poor thing. All in all a grand day out.

An excellent course in understanding Portraiture

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: APRIL 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Portrait Photography

I found the course well presented and organised supported by a very patient model. I learned the basic needs in portrait photography from the kit required, camera settings, focusing, composition through to understanding light, speedlights and studio soft lighting set-ups. Ending with a rewarding and challenging practical exercise. Thoroughly recommend this excellent course.

How Could It Not Be Great

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: APRIL 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Portraits - Dog Photography

If you like dogs and taking pictures then this really couldn't be more perfect. A day packed with unusual and rare dogs, great training and advice, Nikon gear and a sprawling lunch spread to boot.

Getting started with macro photography

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: APRIL 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Macro Photography

The day was really well structured with plenty of hand-on tasks. Ricci was able to catch everyone's attention showing great practical tricks! I particularly enjoyed the end of the course when speedlights have been introduced to create awesome affects!

Dales VIP - Doug Robertson

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: APRIL 2019

COURSE: VIP Experience: Bolton Abbey

The day was really well run, I learnt a lot particularly with reference to using filters, in camera modes of use for landscapes and exposure settings for landscapes. Neil brought good humour, brilliant enthusiasm and was always willing to tailor the day to our needs and wishes.

Macro Magic

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: APRIL 2019

COURSE: Experience Day: Macro Photography

I entered the class with a shiny new macro lens and no clue how to use it, and left having taken close up photographs of strawberries that would make an M&S Food photographer salivate! I cannot believe how much I learned in just one day. Nikon School is hands down the only place I have been to study photography and left with actual, practical skills that are immediately applicable. I’m not drowning in technical jargon and I’ve been able to put the things I was taught into practice. Brilliant.

Discovering Antrim

RATING: 4.8 of 5
DATE: APRIL 2019

COURSE: Nikon School Adventures - The Best of Antrim Day 2

My wife and I attended all three days as the course offered the opportunity to visit and photograph some of the most beautiful parts of the Antrim coast. Neil and Ricci were always on hand to answer questions and provide advice on camera settings and the best locations. We were also able to borrow a better set of filters to try long exposures, and it was useful to see how Neil processed his images in Lightroom back in the hotel.

Excellent 3 Days - Informative and Enjoyable

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: APRIL 2019

COURSE: Nikon School Adventures - The Best of Antrim Day 2

Thoroughly enjoyed 3 days of landscape photography in Antrim and learned a huge amount. The locations were great and offered opportunities to capture compelling images. Neil and Ricci were consistently attentive and provided the required amount of advice and guidance in addition to being available in the evenings to demonstrate post production.

Would not hesitate to recommend the Antrim courses.
