Good session as always from Neil, I learnt a good deal.

A completely new insight!

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Digital Darkroom: Black and White Photography

Excellent course! If you’re wanting to get in to B&W then you must do this course. Neil took us first through ‘black and white thinking and vision’ to help understand the composition, subjects and lighting that makes a good B&W image. Then, after taking us through the practical photography aspects, we covered digital editing to process B&W images to maximum effect.
As someone who wants to get in to both digital and film B&W, I learnt a lot to apply to both.

Great photo shoot!

RATING: 5 of 5

COURSE: Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

This was a great opportunity to learn about light in outdoor portrait shooting. A nice simple shoot using a professional model and experimenting with refracted, reflected (x2) light and fill in (off camera) speedlight. As always the instruction and advice from Ricci was superb!

NEC Photo Shoot

RATING: 4.8 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

Neil did an excellent job in explaining how the shoot would work, what we’re trying to achieve and helping everyone with settings etc. though the whole shoot was really good. The model, Emily, was friendly and obliging in helping the photographers.

Really interesting actionable insights!

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Photography Show Portrait Photo Shoot

Neil was really engaging and made sure we all understood what he was explaining, and - importantly - got plenty of time to put it into practice. In one hour I learnt the foundations of controlling ambient lighting and how to use flash, and this was incredible value for a free course!

Must do course for Nikon Z6II owners

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2022

COURSE: Mastering Z 6II & Z 7II Part 1

As a newcomer into the Z system, I needed to be trained on the use of my Z6II. This course was beyond my expectations. Being a follower of Ricci's youtube channel, I was delighted to know he would be the course host. Therefore quality content as expected, clear and thorough explanations. This course provides a solid foundation regarding the use of the camera. I am certain that the second part of the course will not disappoint either.

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.
