A superb training day for  for all photographers wanting to learn how to use studio lighting and edit the images to best effect. (see also.....Photoshop Training days  and Location Photography  workshop)


I'm offering a complete day's workshop with 'Timmins', our resident and experienced model, at our studio in north Leeds. The day will offer:

• a 2 hour shoot in the morning, with tuition on studio lighting. Timmins will be your model and offer all styles from fashion to lingerie and up to art nude. You'll have the opportunity to learn how to use lighting to full effect, get some great shots for your portfolio and gain experience in the studio setting.

• 2 hours in the afternoon, learning photoshop techniques....developing your skills and confidence to allow you to get the very best from your work. And...you'll leave with a selection of shots ready to post on your portfolio.
  
  We'll even throw in a light lunch and refreshments.
  
  All for just £99

Sessions are delivered on a one to one basis and will be tailored to meet your experience and knowledge. Each session will focus on areas that you, as the 'student', wish to concentrate on.

Timmins is a mature model with many years experience. Personal feedback from shoots has been highly positive.....so I am sure that you'll find her very helpful and photogenic. She also has unlimited patience......so you can take your time whilst learning.

I am a very experienced trainer and photographer, able to develop your skills and help you get the best from your shoots. I am fully qualified and hold an honours degree in Professional Training and Development backed up with 30 years experience, including work with local colleges and Leeds Met University.

Recent comments from some of our satisfied 'students' include:

"Thank you so much for this afternoon. It was a really enlightening experience! Mike should take training up full time, he has the right knack of intervening only when necessary and for putting points across really well. For me it was about gaining as much knowledge as possible in the short period of time we had.

You (Timmins) were great. I know I have some very good images. I've only had time to work on a couple of them, and I know they will be very good final images.

Thank you also for being so helpful and for putting lots of effort into ensuring the best possible relationship with the camera.

Please pass on my thanks to Mike for his patient understanding.
Thanks very much again, and hope to see you again, soon."

"I  enjoyed everything in the day and had some useful ideas from it. Of course I'm already thinking 'which button was it to do .....' on photoshop!
I did enjoy doing the art/nude ones & I am now keen to get a model for some more experimentation at that level. I'm quite envious of you really. Not only do you have  a loyal following of models at your call but you have the fairest of them all at your side!
 
It's great to work with a model who is easy to get on with, helps with ideas , has loads of experience and is attractive, and thats what you get with Timmins.  I would have no hesitation in recommending her.
 
So thanks again for everything and if you get to the other side of the Pennines (either of you) please call in to see me. I really mean that . It's my own business so it would be no imposition. Hope to see you soon"

"Many thanks for today, really enjoyed it - I plan to wait a while before deciding the next steps, but think that if you and Timmins are willing, I'd like to have another go for a couple of hours and concentrate on direction with lights.   

Lunch was great (and I'll have to find out the tea recipe) - the lights and set up instruction was sound, Diane fantastic and patient and I got some good tips for photoshop.  The concept of cradle to grave or 'All you need to know about Glamour modelling, but were afraid to ask' is great.  You have a great model who is prepared to produce great results without any effort from the photographer - and then you take those results and improve them with PS.  A winning combo."

This is a great opportunity to get to grips with both studio work and editing.
