.PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOPS.
Damien’s photography classes and workshops in London and other cities provide an ideal opportunity for photographers of any level to brush up on their skills and to learn something new. Free from jargon and pretension, all of these days are designed to provide photography-changing skills and techniques in a way that anyone can digest. None of Damien’s courses are ‘photo walks’ or days on which students are expected to spend time on their own or unguided – Damien is ever present and keeps groups small so that everyone gets the attention that they need.
Discussion and thought-sharing are important parts of these courses, and students are gently encouraged to work together and compare images and experiences to broaden the knowledge and vision of the group as a whole. All sessions end with coffee accompanied by friendly, constructive critique and a celebration of the achievements and revelations of the day. They are days of thought-provoking learning, but above all they are fun and enjoyable.
