TUITION AND COURSES
Pixels and light offer tuition and courses to new comers to photography and novices, with an emphasis on hands on practical experience rather than technical classroom teaching.

Our courses can be tailored to your individual needs and can be run for individuals as well as small groups of up to 10 people.

1 to 1 tuition includes anything from a 2 hour session costing from £45 and covering camera familiarisation and basic techniques for taking landscape photographs up to 1 to 1 tuition over a weekend in a location of your choice. A typical weekend of tuition would include some discussion on basic techniques including camera familiarisation, exposure control, digital process, lighting equipment and composition followed by hands on photography at location or locations of either your choice of our recommendation. We would hope to cover a mixture of coastal, land and river photography from dawn through to dusk.
