We would like to ask you a few questions about your camera gear, your interests in photography, your skills, and most importantly – your photographic needs.

How much do private photography lessons cost?
Private photography lessons cost £75 an hour and we do a minimum of three hours sessions.
Occasionally we also do 2 hours of private lessons. We can be especially flexible if this is your third or fourth tuition.
Time flies very quickly and especially for the initial course we strongly recommend booking 4 hours. This should give us just enough time to go over the fundamentals of photography plus do some practical exercises.
What should I bring to my 1to1 photography course?
Generally, all you will need is your camera, but you are welcome to bring as much or as little gear as you like!
If you have a selection of lenses, please let us know, and we will recommend which lenses will be the most suitable for your one to one training.
Do you offer free camera hire?
Yes, we offer a free camera hire for the duration of all our photography workshops and 1to1 lessons.
This is a popular option as you can learn about all the different camera functions before buying one.
We have Nikon and Canon cameras available.
