Introduction to Creative Photography Level 1

See the world in a new way on this one day, hands-on photography workshop led by Professional Photographer Myles Shelly. You will be introduced to essential camera skills and hacks that will show you how to get the absolute best photograph with your camera. Start taking a new style of photograph with confidence.

In a series of practical exercises on still lifes, landscape, architecture, depth of field, movement, compositional elements, looking at key images from some of the masters of photography Myles will heighten your visual awareness and show you professional hacks that will elevate your skills to new ways of seeing.

Using aperture and shutter speed functions to manipulate depth of field and movement, these exercises will help you to create dynamic and creative compositions, heighten your understanding of light sources and introduce you to professional methods. You will improve your photography skills and learn how to plan your images, understand what to consider in the making of your photograph and learn how to capture great images in the lens.
