The following is a sample itinerary of what you might expect during an evening photography walk:

 

Meet at the Beatles statue at the Pier Head.

Shoot the iconic Three Graces and surrounding architecture.

Capture the sunset and the blue hour light from around the Royal Albert Dock.

Photograph the Waterfront buildings as the many lights are switched on after dark.

Walk to a suitable location in order to capture light trails from the moving traffic.

If requested, head across to Seacombe in order to capture the city skyline and colours at night.

 

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 essential for these evening /after dark walks 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 evening tuition as part of a group is just £60 per person or £80 for 1-2-1 tuition.

​

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.
