Smartphone Photography Workshops

My smartphone photography workshops are fun, practical and always relaxed, with plenty of time to put your new skills into practice and ask any questions you may have. They are suitable for beginners, but even if you know your way around a phone camera, you'll still come away with photography tips. editing techniques and creative ideas.

I also run sessions for workplaces and organisations. Workshops provide a fantastic team-building opportunity, as well as equipping team members with the skills to create impactful images to help promote what you do! Please contact me for prices.

I also offer a longer course with a wellbeing focus, as another way to support your team. I combine my Occupational Therapy skills (from my previous career) with photography in various engaging ways. The 4-week Gratitude Gallery is an example of the type of wellbeing-focused course I offer.

To stay in the workshop loop, please join my mailing list to get my monthly mailouts.
