Description
Street Photography Course in Central London
Do you enjoy watching people and noticing the small, unexpected moments happening around you?
Would you like to feel more confident photographing life on the streets — without worrying that you are too slow, using the wrong settings or unsure how to approach people?
Our Street Photography Course is a practical and enjoyable day exploring central London with your camera.
We’ll start at The Travel Cafe with introductions, a look at some inspiring street photography and a quick check of everyone’s camera settings. We’ll then head outside and spend most of the day taking photographs, trying different ideas and learning through practice.

During the course, we’ll look at:

Small groups and personal help!
We keep the group to a maximum of six participants.
This gives everyone plenty of opportunities to ask questions, receive individual help and get honest, useful feedback during the day.
We have been teaching photography since 2010 and have helped hundreds of students explore street photography and become more confident taking pictures in public.
“I learnt so much more about my camera and discovered new ways of taking more creative pictures.”
