Beginner's Photography

What a fantastic day, beautiful weather and a lovely group for Jo Andreae to teach. The subject was Beginner's Photography concentrating on composition. After some time talking about everyone's cameras, lighting and various F numbers it was time to go outside in the sunshine. A couple of hours were spent taking photographs concentrating on architecture, traditional shots, contemporary, studying depths of field.

Next week, the group will return with their photographs for some analysis!

Summer Beginners Photography Class

Spring Beginners has completely sold out, so I have managed to get Jo Andreae back for another Beginners class in the Summer.

Part A is on Wednesday 20 May with Part B on Friday 5 June.

The timings are from 9.45am-2pm.  This includes a light lunch and refreshments throughout the day.  The price is £100.

On a Treetops photography class, the emphasis of the day is to understand more about photography, your camera and for Jo to broaden your horizons. It is a creative day.  There will be some time indoors, but Jo will have you outside too. The class is divided into 2 sessions, so that you can get your photos developed inbetween and bring them along to be analysed at Class 2, look at what worked, what didn't and what can be improved upon next time.

Class size is kept small, so that Jo can provide an excellent level of attention and tuition.

New Photography Class March 2009

We have the dates for the next Photography Class! Titled "Beginners - Understanding your Camera"

It is run over 2 dates, so that you have time to develop your photographs inbetween.

The dates are: Friday 20 March and Wednesday 25 March.


The day starts at 10am and finishes at 2pm with a light lunch included. The price is £100 for the 2 days, all refreshments, 2 lunches and any materials used.

The emphasis of the day is on the practical side, some theory will be covered but primarily the day is about seeing, creating and taking photographs not just sitting in a classroom environment.

The class size is kept small so Jo has plenty of time to give you some individual attention. When booking, Jo will ask for details of your camera, so that she can tailor the class to the group and your cameras.

This class is perfect for you if you have recently got a new camera, come and understand its new features and functions. Learn how to get the most out of it and take fantastic photographs. To book please call Emily 01635 44850.
