• Would you like to capture photographs of Liverpool similar to those featured here on my website and in my books ? 

• Just starting out in photography but don't know where to begin with your camera ?​

• Simply looking for a new hobby that will get you out in the fresh air more ?​

• Understand the basics but looking to take your photography skills to the next level ? ​

• Only in Liverpool for a short time and want to make the most of your visit whilst enjoying a day or evening of photography ? ​

• Or simply looking for something different to give as a gift to someone who enjoys photography ?

 

 

My Liverpool photography walks and tuition are the perfect opportunity to learn more about your camera and photography and capture the beauty of the city around you. I offer evening, half-day, or full-day photography walks/tuition. All of my walks are offered as 1-2-1 tuition or as part of a small group, and our start time can be flexible if you wish to capture the city after dark or even at sunrise.

 

I want people to enjoy photography as much as I do and so would like to think my friendly and patient approach to teaching means everybody will have a productive and enjoyable day. Every individual participant will also receive a personal one hour zoom session with myself at a later date, where I will use some of the photographs you have taken on the day to teach you how to edit your work effectively. If it is just your editing that you are looking to improve then I also offer the 1-2-1 zoom session on its own.

 

Who are these photography walks for ?

 

Anyone with a camera or phone camera who wants to learn about photography and improve their photography skills at the same time as exploring one of the most photogenic cities in the world.

 

What will I learn ?

 

This will largely depend upon your level of photography before you join me for the day and what you personally would like to achieve, but I aim to pass on as much of my knowledge as I can without overloading you ! I purposely limit the size of any group in order to spend as much of my time with everyone. I also send out a survey prior to the day so that I know more about your photography experience and what you’re looking to learn, and whether you are hoping to visit any particular part of the city. Some of the topics covered will include:

 

Understanding the basics of exposure - Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO.

Getting to grips with a camera - what do all the buttons and dials do !

What lens should I use for what shot.

Focus - where exactly and when to use manual focus rather than auto focus.

What determines whether a photograph ‘works’ or not - importance of composition.

How to find originality in photographing a famous city or landscape.

Understanding how light and conditions are so important in photography.

When and where should I use a tripod. Low light photography and night photography (if evening walk).

How to take a series of photographs in order to ‘stitch’ together a panoramic shot.

How to edit your photographs effectively - I coach you individually via a 1-2-1 zoom meeting at a later date.

 

Where will we visit ?

​

As Liverpool is a relatively small city with most locations within easy walking distance, we can cover the majority of the main landmarks within our time together. I will also take you to some of the lesser known spots within the city for further photo opportunities. If time permits we can take the ferry across the Mersey in order to capture the famous city skyline. Where possible, if there is a specific place you wish to visit or even if there is a specific photograph of mine that you wish to take yourself then I will always try and accommodate you (this of course is easier to do during a 1-2-1 tuition walk).
