Sunday June 2nd, in the lovely surroundings of Charlton Park (Canterbury, Kent), a private country house, you’ll spend the morning going back to basics to learn how to get the most out of your camera and get off the auto setting. In the afternoon you’ll learn how to photograph people, working with natural and reflected light and flash.
You’ll need a Digital SLR camera with optional manual controls to attend this workshop. Ideally you’ll have a flash gun that works both on and off your camera but you can still learn valuable techniques without this. Book both sessions and save £25.00! BOOK HERE
