Learning in person means you get my full attention and support, tailored just for you.

 

No confusing jargon or one-size-fits-all lessons; we work together at your pace, focusing on exactly what you want to learn. You’ll get hands-on practice with your own camera, real-time feedback, and answers to all your questions as they come up.

 

This kind of personalised coaching helps you build confidence quickly, so you can start taking photos you love sooner.

​

Plus, being in beautiful South Wales, we can explore different locations — inside and outside — giving you practical experience with real lighting and settings. It’s more fun, inspiring, and effective than trying to learn from books or videos alone.

​

If you’re someone who prefers friendly, face-to-face learning and wants to feel supported every step of the way, in-person coaching is the best way to really understand your camera and unlock your creative potential.
