What to expect
Your photographer meets you in central London and walks you through camera anatomy—buttons, dials, menus—before moving into the field. Each short assignment targets a specific technique: freezing action, crafting depth of field, controlling colour. You're shooting actual scenes, not practising in a studio. The instructor adjusts explanations to your camera's layout and your existing knowledge, whether you're upgrading from your phone or dusting off a camera you've owned for years. Expect to feel the difference between guessing and understanding by the final hour.
