Photography learning programme¶

28 September 2026–30 May 2027 · 35 weeks · eight hours per week

Start with Week 1: Foundations and first portraits, then the long-term plan.

Hands-on photography begins in Week 1. Golden autumn, pre-Christmas portraits with your wife and toddler, extended-family Christmas and January snow are built into the programme. The core priorities are directing ordinary adults, mature and fuller-figured subjects, light, posing and natural retouching, followed by families, couples and wedding rehearsal.
