Group Courses
Over the years I have developed and delivered a range of photography courses that I have delivered in the East Kent area. These have proved to be highly successful and very popular with the local community.
Typically I run three different courses
-
Basic Level Photography course (for those who want to understand the basic principles of photography)
-
Advanced Level Photography course (for those that understand the basics but want to take things further)
-
Editing Course (Looking at what can be achieved in Lightroom, photoshop and Nik Efex)
One to One Tuition
I have also been asked by several people to undertake one to one tuition to give a fully personalised focussed training experience.
Photo Walks
As a result of the Street Photography talks I have delivered to camera clubs and photographic societies I have been asked to do Photo walk training sessions for the club members
Details of these types of training sessions can be seen below.
If you are interested in any of the courses/training please contact me on

Course Reviews
Emily
It's a fantastic course and it so nice being able to use your camera without having to set it to auto!!! Ian is a great teacher who breaks everything down for you and it's a good laugh at the same time!! Love being able to take a pic of a water fall with Smokey effect
John
I enjoyed the course a lot, found it very friendly and useful. Really quite difficult for Ian with all the differing equipment and abilities, but he managed to find a happy medium to suit all of us and we became quite a close knit group.
I would be interested in further courses, covering composition and photo manipulation
Stephen
I considered myself as someone who knew a bit about photography, having SLR cameras for most of my life, however Ian really adds the icing to the cake. In his down to earth and practical manner he conveys the technicalities of photography to all levels from complete novice through to seasoned photographers with his obvious passion for the art. I would highly recommend attending Ian's courses if you are looking to get more from your photography
Lara
