1-on-1 Bespoke Photography Tutoring


Photography doesn't have to be such a scary world.

Many beginners suffer the same fate. They are simply too overwhelmed with complex settings, rules and intricacies. Some find school courses to be a poor way to learn with more time making PowerPoints than taking photos.

Those who choose to venture off the beaten path and learn on their own are often swamped with YouTubers and blogs only trying to squeeze out ad-revenue and get you to buy their LUT-presets. There's just no winning!

Well, if I've just described you, there is a way to win. Take it from someone who found his way with nothing more than a hand-me-down camera and a dream. 

I'm proud to be offering fully bespoke 1-on-1 tutoring for a price that won't break the bank.

I guarantee that I will take you from complete beginner to competent manual-mode experimentalist ready to conquer the scene and find your own style.

I'll teach you the ropes at your pace, everything from spotting potential shots to the finishing touches editing your masterpiece.

We'll do it the way you want. Online chat, call, in-person, heck, even fax machine.  ...If I can find one.

No Camera?

No problem.

I can help you get the most out of your phone camera, teach you a few nifty tips and tricks and guide you to your new favourite mobile editing software where you can perfect your style. No hardware needed.

These were taken with nothing more than my iPhone 11. I'll let them do the talking.
A close up shot of the tank, headlight and bars of a Yamaha MT-125 motorcycle. The tank is silver, reflecting the dim glow in the scene. The bike is parked beside a bench in an idyllic garden. Behind the bench, which follows the lines of the bike, is a flowerbed and a tree. The contrast between nature and machine is thought provoking.
A very provocative architectural shot of some glass buildings in Stockport. The side of the building has an interesting pattern of wooden beams, greatly contrasting the otherwise very blue image.
A brutalist black and white architectural shot of some buildings in Manchester's Northern Quarter. The side of the building has an interesting pattern of pushed out windows, breaking up the otherwise minimalist flat styling.
