About
Photography Courses in London for all levels of skill and experience! Our photography courses explain the science and art of photography from the ground up with almost constant hands-on activities. They will get you familiar with your camera (DSLR, Mirrorless system or Bridge), in no time and allow you to start taking real control over your photography. Our workshops are suitable for everyone from the complete novice who has virtually zero experience and knowledge of photography to those who have owned a digital camera for a while but are still struggling to get off the automatic programmes and need that vital kick-start to help them understand the fundamentals and get their creative photography underway. Pretty much all cameras are suitable: Nikon, Canon, Sony, Fujifilm, Pentax, Panasonic, Olympus, and more. Please get in touch if you would like to double-check your camera suitability. Courses are run from our photography studio in London, at Wimbledon Art Studios.

A great session! Filled with information, practice and insight. Roland is very knowledgeable in photography and makes the course feel personalised to your specific goals. The class size is small so you maximise learning time and get 1-1 time throughout if you get stuck. I am leaving feeling much more confident with my camera and can finally get out of Auto modes.
Amazing course, amazing tutor ! Would recommend to anyone getting started with their camera.

Did the Intensive DSLR Photography Course a week ago and loved it! Aga was such a brilliant, patient and knowledgeable teacher and it was so inspiring and really has given me the confidence to step away from using the program mode. Manual mode rocks! Thank you Aga, I enjoyed every minute!

I would highly recommend the intensive beginners photography course I attended recently. Aga was a brilliant teacher and very friendly. The course content was very useful and well presented and the whole booking experience was very pleasant and efficient.
I will definitely do a follow-up course.

I recently attended the Intense Photography Couse for Beginners. This is a one day course, very intense and really useful. The content was excellent and Roland run the course really well. I would recommend it to anyone with an interest in photography. You don’t need to have any knowledge of photography to make the best of the course, just a camera which you want to get to know better to take interesting pictures.

I attended the intensive beginners course and would highly recommend it.
I went into the course with zero experience and left feeling completely confident using my new camera on the fully manual setting.
Roland was a great teacher. He gave me advice before attending on what equipment to get to meet my needs. And on the day he was patient, helpful and knowledgeable.
I really enjoyed the course and once I’ve practiced what I’ve learned, I’ll definitely book myself onto a more advanced course.

Excellent introduction to photography - fun and interactive. Roland is very knowledgeable and helps everyone with their specific type of camera. I left with the confidence to take my mirrorless system off auto!

Great course. Learnt so much more about my camera, and discovered things about it and taking pictures had no idea existed! A good balance of practical exercises, and clear visual aids and verbal explanations. Thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommend, thank you!

Hi,
I was just wondering if once you complete the course do you get a certificate stating that you've completed the course?

Hi, yes, you can receive Certificate of Completion that is signed by the tutor. It looks very professional and is printed on high-quality paper in case you'd like to frame it. You can mention it on your CV or LinkedIn profile, but I hope you understand that this is not the same as a degree from a college or uni. Our courses are one day long.
Hope it helps, if you have any more questions please email us or just call the studio on 020 8947 8118.
Best wishes, Roland

I am planning to travel for few months and decided to buy sony a6000.. I saw you have one course for beginners and another one for beginners/ travel photography. As a complete beginner do you think I could go straight to travel photography? Awaiting for your reply, thank you!

Hi Ruta,
Thank you for emailing and your interest in DSLR Photography Courses.
Yes, you can sign up for the Travel Photography course.
In general, we have three courses for beginners and amateur photographers, two studio based and one outdoor.
The studio based are:
Beginners DSLR Half Day (10.00am-2.00pm) £75
Intensive DSLR Full Day (10.00am-5.00pm) £125
The Intensive Course is very comprehensive and our most popular.
The first part of the Intensive course covers pretty much the same content that we do on the half day Beginners DSLR - all the technical aspects of photography and how to use a camera in fully manual mode (the aperture, f-stop sequence, shutter speeds, ISO, metering and focusing).
From 2.00pm to 5.00pm, we look at more "intermediate" topics, problems in low light conditions, lenses and their use, composition and troubleshooting.
But what's really important - on the Intensive course we do a lot more of practical exercises, we look at composition, and try some major creative techniques.
We take pictures of 'exploding' water balloons using fast shutter speeds to freeze the movement (use in sport and action photography) and slow shutter speeds to 'paint' with light.
For the aperture - how to use a shallow depth of field to blur the background in portraits or have everything sharp when photographing landscapes.
All of our courses have a maximum of 7-8 attendees and you will be able to practice in our studio and a nearby park.
The outdoor course is called - The Art of Travel Photography.
It is very similar to Beginners and Intensive, we cover all the important aspects of photography and how to take pictures in manual mode (M), but I think it is a bit less technical and more practical than the other two.
In the Travel course, we've included a visit to the park (nature and flowers photography), market and street photography, portraits, a walk along the Thames/Embankment and taking pictures of landscapes, as well as city centre and architecture.
It is a full day course from 10am to 5pm, and the cost is £125.
For more details, upcoming dates and current availability please visit our website.
Hope it helps,
if you have any more questions about our courses, how to book or submit payment, please get in touch by email or call our studio on 020 8947 8118.
Best wishes,
Roland
