LAKE DISTRICT RESIDENTIAL WORKSHOPS
SOLD OUT
Are you ready to experience the stunning landscapes of the Lake District? Designed for all levels of expertise, these workshops offer a unique opportunity to sharpen your photography skills while capturing the beauty of this picturesque region.
Explore the best of the Lake District
The Lake District is a photographer's paradise, boasting awe-inspiring landscapes at every turn. From the tranquil shores of Derwentwater to the rugged peaks of Scafell Pike, each workshop will take you to some of the most picturesque locations the Lake District has to offer.
Perfect for all skill levels
The Lake District is the base for my photography, and where I’ve lived all my life - very few landscape photographers know its landscape as intimately as I do. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced photographer, my workshops cater to all skill levels. My relaxed and encouraging approach will help you build a strong foundation, regardless of your previous experience. During the workshops, you will receive personalised instruction on composition, exposure, lighting, and much more. You will also have the opportunity to learn invaluable post-processing techniques on your images to bring out their full potential.
Hands on tuition from a multi-award winning photographer
To ensure an intimate learning environment and personalised attention, my workshops are limited to a small group of participants (4 max). This allows me to provide in-depth guidance and one-on-one support to each attendee. You will have ample opportunities to ask questions, receive feedback, and learn from my approach and experience.
Getting you to the best locations
As a local I have a vast knowledge of the area having lived here all my life, and will always get you to the best locations for any given weather scenario. Inclement weather in the Lake District is common, so it’s important to be with a workshop leader who has a wide variety of shooting options available irrespective of conditions - I always plan workshops flexibly based on this ethos to ensure you’re in the most suitable location for the prevailing conditions.
Superb accommodation ideally located
All my smaller group tours are based at Sunnyside Guest House, who provide excellent accommodation and service. Based in Keswick, we’re ideally placed to move from location to location cutting down on travelling time. All places are based on bed and breakfast and superbly appointed single-occupancy rooms. The breakfasts Paul provides are worth the trip alone!!
Our base will be the gorgeous Sunnyside Guest House, located in Keswick town centre. Accommodation will be provided on a bed and breakfast basis, with all workshop places provided single occupancy / en-suite rooms.
We will also have use of the large communal room with super-comfortable leather recliners, where we can discuss our images and work on post-processing and image critique.
I choose to use Sunnyside as they provide a relaxing environment with impeccable service.
