Matt provided excellent tuition for taking photos on the 'manual' setting, and great locations to take night shots. I now feel confident to set my camera to manual mode and develop my photography skills.

Very well run with good explanations and interesting mini-projects. Participants were encouraged to try new things and look at functions of the camera they may not previously have considered.

Jose led a nicely structured photography program, leading us through use of light, leading lines, curves and composition. The group size was perfect, with Jose giving every participant individual time during the morning's session.

Lucy was very understanding on everyone's level of expertise and was very open to any questions. unfortunately I had to leave a half hour early as I was not feeling too well but she was good about that. However by that time I still had gained a lot of knowledge about my camera.
