Wild Day with Wild Life

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Experience Day: Wildlife - British Wildlife

Excellent day out at the Wildlife centre with Ricci. Ricci was, as usual, was full of technical advice for all the various cameras the delegates were using. He helped with a couple of aspects that I too was unsure of. He also gave good compositional advice and checked everyone was getting their shots. I took over 1500 during the day and am very pleased with the results. Others were a no show but we managed to shoot a Badger for the first time. Squirrels and Foxes are still the stars.

A great Photo Walk experience

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

Part of the Photography Show, but more than a typical show presence. A chance to think about light in a real life situation, work with a professional model and learn about your camera at the same time. Thank you Nikon for making the exhibition experience memorable for me - the best part of the Show.

Photography Show Shoot

RATING: 4.8 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

The highlight of the photography show this year (2022) for me was a 1 hour tutorial with Neil Freeman from the Nikon School. Neil bought along a fabulous model Emily and the two of them put our group totally at ease. Neil demonstrated off camera flash and his Nikon product knowledge was exemplarily.
All too soon the 1 hour shoot was over but I came away withy some nice images and a better understanding of flash.
All in all a great experience at what turned out to be a bit of a mediocre show.

TPS Portrait workshop

RATING: 5 of 5

COURSE: Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

Very enjoyable session led by Neil - relaxed pace and highly informative. Neil taught us how to build a properly lit portrait - both inside and with fill-flash outdoors. Highly recommended.

Outdoor portrait shoot

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

Having done very little portrait photography using two different methods outdoors was very useful. Having one to one time in each of the locations with the model was good.

Great intoduction to Capture 1

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Digital Darkroom: Introduction to Capture One Pro

I am looking at changing my software, the relatively poor performance of Adobe Raw with Z9 files being but one factor. Capture 1 was of interest and this offers a good introduction. Neil took us through the basic workflow and edited sample images of different types to help us start using this powerful software. I had just downloaded the trial version and this session greatly help in exploring the options and tools available. Recommended if you are thinking of using Capture1

Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

It was brief but very useful workshop during Photography Show 2022 in Birmingham. Both trainers were very helpful and gave a lot of practical tips. We could do some outdoor photos in a nice location with a model to enhance our portfolio.

This class is a must for any photographer who needs to get to grips with their new Nikon Z series camera. I'm so glad I booked this course which gave me so much information from a tutor that explained so much clearly and concisely. Thank you.
