Beginners Photography

Sunday the 4th of September
Portchester Castle - 10am - 3 hours
A fantastic three-hour event in the beautiful and scenic surroundings of Portchester Castle, Hampshire. Once you meet the group, we will go through introductions, and then dive right in with the basics and use of a DSLR/mirrorless camera in manual which is one of the most important fundamentals to understand in photography. We will go through this with plenty of time through some very soft challenges. Once you feel comfortable, we have a fantastic area for you to practice! I will be there with you every step of the way. There is something for everyone's photographic abilities - the sea, people-watching, the church, and of course, medieval architecture! A fantastic event to meet like-minded photographers and explore the local beauty in Portsmouth.

ABOUT PORTSMOUTH
PHOTOGRAPHY
GROUP
Come along to our photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.

Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers!

We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations around Portsmouth.

New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next on is!

Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

Join the Portsmouth Photography Facebook Group here to share your photos after the session.

Our classes and photography sessions are limited to a max of 5 students - due to current COVID restrictions

An interesting course that introduced me to the idea of moving away from always using Auto to trying manual control of aperture etc. Most of the session was pitched at the right level. A few items were a bit more technical, but were used to give background info. Carlos was very approachable and did a good job with leading the event.
