Course testimonials:
- Great tutor, very knowledgeable. Lots of examples and practical sessions.
- Julie was fabulous, great educator. Very hands on and a belief of more practical than just words on a page - it was enjoyable, interactive and made me a better “photographer in training” . I will probably be back for more at some point :)
- I gained confidence in using my camera. the training was what i needed to go out and use my camera more, I feel that i can now take better photographs.
- I thoroughly enjoyed the photography course and learned a lot in a short space of time. Julie was a great instructor, using a mix of theory, practical and her own examples to demonstrate how and why you use different settings.
- The teacher (Julie) was very easy to work with and had good knowledge to pass on from her experience in the field. The hands on field trips to different locations were great.
- Julie was great - really knowledgeable, able to talk from personal experience and share examples of all aspects of photography skills.
