A great detailed introduction into photography. This was my second course with SPW and I have thoroughly enjoyed them both. Alot of information to take in, but plenty of opportunities to practice and ask questions along the way.The course notes are handy to return to later so you can enjoy the day without having to make notes on the way. All of this in one of the best locations in the world. Thanks Glenn for sharing your knowledge and experience.
Really enjoyed the class. Very informative and helpful for my journey into photography. My brain did hurt afterwards, but in a good way. I have so much more practical knowledge now.
It was a great class. The trainer made every effort to give personalised attention in answering people’s specific questions. We were given plenty of technical information and skills, but not overloaded, so easy to understand and start using the skills. Would recommend this course to beginners and people wanting to refresh their knowledge and skills which was my reason for doing the classic cause it had been a while since I used all the functions.
I did the 4 hour Photography Essentials Course. Glenn was a very friendly and good instructor, he explained the theory very clearly before helping us put it into practice. Im very glad I did this course and got exactly what I wanted from this workshop and am now excited to experiment and practice all the lessons I have learned in my travels. Thank you SPW.
This workshop was very helpful, the instructor was very professional and gave lots of time for each participant. Very worthwhile and I learnt so much that my DSLR camera is capable.
