Once again having attended the first part of the course, the second part under Ricci's guidance , I found the course both informative and fun. his relaxed style is great. the practical work was very useful as a new Nikon camera can be daunting .The course was great at covering the different aspects of picture taking and gave me much more understanding of what my camera can do. I really enjoyed both courses- great value and very useful as an entry into basic photography. many thanks. nick wege

I supervised my 8 year old daughter who has had a Nikon camera since Christmas. The instructor was calm and patient and covered a lot of information with just the right amount of detail. There was time to practice inside and outside. My daughter came away confident and excited to continue her hobby.

I recently jumped ship from a rival and had hired various systems before deciding to buy the Z6 and get some help as I couldn't understand the Nikon focusing system whatsoever (loved the IQ though). Honestly thought all I'd take away would be how to focus and that I knew everything else offered. How very wrong was I! Ricci was amazing. I learnt an incredible amount not just about Z cameras but about photography too. He gauged the group's level really well and set the perfect pace. Thank you!

A great day of training with Neil who had so much knowledge to share with our small group of 5. A really good learning environment and delivered at a steady pace to allow us to take it all in and make copious amounts of notes. I would thoroughly recommend this course for anyone starting out with wedding photography either as a business or even if you're just planning to photograph for family or close friends.

This course was so much more than I'd hoped for. It was a lovely group of people with a fantastic instructor! If you are starting out with photography and need a better understanding of lighting and how to take portraits, this really is a great course to go on!

I am a geek and a nerd, and to be honest I can normally find just about every option on a camera if I wanted to. The issue is that this camera can be fairly complex to use if you take it off auto. Ricci and the course helped me understand what it all meant, so I now have some confidence in using outside, now all I need to do is use it :)

So we had Ricci as our course trainer and not as advertised. But that really does not matter as Ricci was great at delivering the course and his knowledge was great and open to helping everyone out on the day. I would really suggest anyone attend this day as it was really informative. The training facility is great and the team makes you feel really welcome. I'm sure I'll attend another course in due time...

the course was excellent. very good course tutor who explained in understandable terms what can be daunting concepts for people new to digital photography. Nikon is an iconic name in the camera world so being able to learn the basic concepts of photography will stand me in good stead for the future. I am going on a 60th birthday trip of a lifetime to Alaska in may 2020, where a picture paints a thousand words.

I loved this trip. The weather was perfect. We saw the lights almost every day. Neil and Mark Andreas Jones took us to superb locations, some of them less well known to other photographers. It was fantastic to have the expertise of someone who really understood how Iceland's weather moves and the micro-climates. This enabled us to swap locations and shoot in good light before revisiting the original plan in better weather. I have come away inspired by Iceland's rugged beauty and 6000 photos.

We were very lucky to photograph the Northern Lights on the doorstep of the hotel. As these lights are usually elusive both Neil & Mark kept a nightly watch for us and we were rewarded with spectacular displays on 2 nights. Both Neil & Mark were on hand to give their advice on best camera settings to capture this phenomenon. The Icelandic landscape is monochromatic in winter during the day, so most of our shoots were of sunrises and sunsets. Neil & Mark were great in guiding us to locations.
