The following is a sample itinerary of what you might expect during a full day photography walk:

​

Meet at the Beatles statue at the Pier Head.

Take the ferry across the river in order to capture the magnificent skyline.

Shoot the iconic Three Graces and surrounding architecture.

Head over to the Royal Albert Dock for the classic views.

Walk up to Castle Street and the Town Hall. Possibility of going inside the Town Hall and shooting the beautiful staircase and dome.*

Stop for lunch and to review images so far and talk all things photography and Liverpool.

Walk to William Brown Street for the civic buildings and neo-classical St George’s Hall.*

Visit the Catholic cathedral and surrounding Georgian Quarter.

Walk to the stunning Anglican Cathedral and head up the tower for the views of the city.

What equipment do I need ?

 

Camera - these walks are aimed at all abilities. Although you will learn certain elements of photography using your phone camera, you will benefit more if you have a dedicated stills camera. That could be a simple point and shoot, an apsc, dslr or a mirrorless camera.

Lenses - if you have them bring them - a standard zoom lens should be sufficient. The majority of my work is taken using a wide angle lens of 35mm.

A tripod will be of benefit (especially at sunrise or in the evening) but if you don’t have one I may be able to lend you one.

Suitable clothing for the expected weather - ideally an umbrella and drying cloth for your camera if rain.

Comfortable shoes as we will be walking a fair amount.

A notebook or notes app as you may wish to make notes on some of the elements that I teach.

 

What are the costs and what is included ?

 

3 hours as half a day or evening tuition as part of a group is just £60 per person or £80 for 1-2-1 tuition.

6 hours full day or afternoon into evening as part of a group is just £120 per person or £160 for 1-2-1 tuition.

Mersey Ferry tickets and Liverpool Cathedral Tower entry may be an additional £10 if we visit these attractions.

​

All sessions include a free one hour 1-2-1 zoom call at a later date in order to improve your editing skills.

​

The stand alone 'how to edit your images' 1-2-1 zoom call is charged at £30 for an hour.

 

10% of all fees will be donated to the Whitechapel Centre, Liverpool’s leading charity for the homeless.

 

What dates are available and how do I book ?

 

Please email me in order to discuss availability. I am fairly flexible and so if you let me know any specific dates when you would ideally be looking to do the walk and I will look to accommodate you on the most suitable one for us both.
