From Snapshots to Great Shots 

Making the most of your photos course

Photo enhancement via post-processing on your computer.

Using professional software installed on your computer, you will be given detailed instruction on how to quickly enhance your photos by techniques including, for example, cropping, brightening areas in shadow, removing unwanted items such as telephone wires, sharpening and so on.

If required I can also carry out a colour calibration of your printer to ensure faithful colour reproduction on prints.

Both courses are on a one-to-one basis, and are completed in two morning sessions. 

Groups are limited to a maximum of 4 people.

Please contact me to arrange dates, or for any additional information.

If you have not decided on which camera to buy, and would like some free guidance, please feel free to contact me for a chat.

Would you like to find out how to take photos that will stun your family and friends?

Are you frustrated by not getting the pictures you want just using the 'Auto' setting all the time?

Is the manual with your camera impossible to understand?

By taking my one-to-one, two morning course, you can learn how to make the most of your camera.

Modern cameras are very clever, but cannot read your mind. 

For example, on automatic your camera will detect faces. But if there are many faces in the viewfinder, how can it tell which is the one you are most interested in? It can't, so it will focus them equally.

With a little knowledge, by taking the camera off 'Auto', and making just one setting you can make your subject really stand out. 

Have a look at the the photo on the right.

If it had been taken on the 'Auto' setting the camera would have made all the faces equally in focus and the child at the front would not stand out from those behind.

On my course you will learn how to easily make the one adjustment needed to get this result. The camera will do the rest.

The terminology is unfamiliar, and it all seems so complicated when reading your camera manual, that most people never get round to learning it.

But the basic principles of photography are very simple to understand if explained in an uncomplicated way.

I have the years of experience to enable me to do just that.

On my camera course you will get:

* one-to-one tuition

  * specific instruction on using your camera.

  * Practical guidance on getting good composition for all types of  photo.
