You will work with me through a series of exercises that will not only help you understand your camera more but will help you beat the fear of shooting on the street.
You will cover:
Inspiration
Shooting Candidly
Beating the Fear
Understand your Camera Fully
Understanding Zone Focusing
Getting in close to shoot stories
Street Themes
We will concentrate on building pictures and stories using the sound principles of; Light, Composition and Moment.
This is a practical Hands-on Street Photography Workshop with plenty of time for one to one tuition as well as shooting time throughout the day.
Next Available Date:
📅 Friday, 23rd April 2027 - Bristol £100
➡️ Includes post-workshop recorded editing session
Photograph Bristol’s energy, contrasts and everyday stories with greater confidence and purpose.
This is a practical, small-group street-photography workshop built around guided assignments rather than an ordinary photo walk.
We will move between Bristol’s energetic city centre and the changing rhythm of the harbourside, using people, colour, reflections and urban structure to work on observation, timing, composition and candid photography. I will explain each exercise clearly, give you room to photograph and remain available for individual help throughout the afternoon.
After the workshop, I will send you private access to a pre-recorded editing lesson on my website. You can watch in your own time as I explain how I select and process street photographs, and how post-production can support rather than rescue an image.
