Photography Workshops, Training and Experiences
I love to share my passion for studio photography and run intensive but fun studio days in Brighton, East Sussex. These workshops are for small groups of photographers and cater for beginner’s and seasoned veterans. Each workshop follows a different theme, from headshot photography, creative portraiture, dance photography, and even a series of masterclasses based on the techniques of the likes of Irving Penn! Please do sign up for my newsletter as it is the best way to keep up with these workshops and find one that might suit you!
