Photography projects are a great way to take your image making to the next level. On this workshop we will look at what is involved in tackling a photography project from single day projects to longer term collections which could be used for a book or an exhibition.

The day will be split in two halves. The first 3 hours will take place in the riverside hamlet of Pin Mill where you will be challenged to come up with an idea for a short project which will involve about 9 images which you will shoot during the morning. The session is timed to coincide with sunrise and the early morning light. There are numerous options for photography and your project can include any of the following:

riverscapes, long exposures, intimate landscapes, macro shots

The second half of the session will take place in my studio at Hollesley where we will look at choosing and sequencing images for a panel. We will look at the considerations for making a panel or small zine and will discuss how to process and select our images so that they form a cohesive body of work. I am an avid collector of photo books so there will be a good selection of other photographers work to study for inspiration.

The procedures we cover in the studio session can be applied to producing a small panel or triptych as well as bigger projects such as books or an exhibition.

The workshop is designed for 2 people with 2 Mac’s available for your use in the studio.

This is a creative workshop and is suitable for all levels but some experience of Lightroom and Photoshop would be useful.

What you need

You will need your camera and a selection of lenses or focal lengths.

Workshop notes will be provided.

If you have a laptop with Lightroom and Photoshop downloaded you are welcome to bring that along to the studio session.

Customer Reviews for the Project Masterclass

‘Thank you for the inspirational session. I really enjoyed the workshop on Saturday and had a lot of fun playing around afterwards with the photos to make my panel.’ 

‘Thank you so much for an excellent day at Sizewell and in your studio. You were very kind, and very helpful in guiding us to take better photographs without restricting our freedom of choice. In other words, you helped enormously without telling us what to do. The overall result is good and I have a story to tell in photographs.’
