Basic photography training for family photos
This photography training course is targeted at people who haven’t touched a camera in some time and want to learn a little bit of information on what digital cameras are, and how to make the most out of them.
We cover training on Point and shoot cameras as well as SLR (d) cameras, the limitations of digital cameras and how to carry out some basic photographic editing on your computer or laptop.
Course Structure
The course is a mixture of media and information. We will send you over some information, which is general reading material, which should point you in the right direction as a start.
The next step is about buying a camera if you don’t already have one, how they work what they do and what the different modes do etc..and what a camera cant do. so this is the technical part.
Your next part is a technical assessment of your photo’s, this will show where your going right and wrong, this is call a critique. You then take what we say and try again.
There is then some videos to watch and learn from. This will give you an insight to professional photography and image taking.
You will again try out your photography skills and see how you get on.
The final part of the course is a hands on day shoot and review with one of our photographers, you can ask questions and have them answered over the 6 hour time period and we will review your images as we go.
For some who fail to grasp some of the concepts this course, the photography training may actually be longer.The course is delivered online and can be also face to face if required.
The New to Digital photography course:

- What the settings do
- Digital limitations over film

This photography training course is targeted at photographers who are moving from film camera to digital cameras. There is a difference between the two types of cameras and the menus can seen that bit to much with about 20 settings to do one thing and combinations. Digital photography is pretty simple once you grasp the basis of how the camera works apposed to film and understanding its limits and differences.
Course Structure
The course is more hands on than our basic photography training course in that we will provide you with information on the cameras, the technical limits and how to do the things that you do with your film camera on a digital camera.
We will go through a shoot (random) and walk you though so that you can see the differences and ask the questions as you need to. In basic form this photography course and digital photography training is a bit like having a friend that knows about digital and film cameras that you can ask all the questions that you want and we will show you.
we have digital SLR cameras that you can use if you haven’t bought your own digital camera yet and are holding back on taking the step toward digital photography.
This one to one time with a photographer and a digital cameras can give you a greater insight into using a digital SLR camera, how its work, its limits and how to make the most out of it.

“I have to say looks as if you have captured the actual substance of the state of affairs close at hand. While others seem to have obscured the crucial point of it, when you expressed above is enlightened in addition to being on the nose; all the same, I must say you did rendered me reason to ponder several of the main ideas that I conceived and entertained as unyielding beliefs in that regards, and time for someone like myself to ponder a wee bit more on a couple of your major items. I would have to say I must compliment you for you have done an excellent job.”
Thanks for publishing about this. There’s a heap of good tech info on the internet. You’ve got a lot of that info here on your site. I’m impressed – I try to keep a couple blogs reasonably up-to-date, but it’s a struggle sometimes. You’ve done a big job with this one. How do you do it?
There is a lot more to go on this photography training website as I will go through a whole range of subjects, it is a struggle as there is a lot of areas and also with photo shoots and other commitments with other websites, its a long day of around 18 hours!
at the moment the training website is not a major ‘thing’ to push through as it is a back end of the photography businesses and directory’s that I run through National photographer http://www.nationalphotographer.co.uk/
But I will try to keep this site more up to date as the last update on this website was in 2006, and I hope that the new format will allow people interested in photography to learn more.
