ABOUT EDMONTON
PHOTOGRAPHY

Come along to our photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.

Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers!

We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations in Edmonton.

  • New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next on is!

  • Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

  • What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

    The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

    Join the Edmonton Photography Group on Facebook to share your photos after the session.

    Fun review of using camera basics in the "wild." It is easy to know there are different options on the camera but easier to try when someone is there to guide you along the way.

    This was a very pleasant experience. I learnt to take more time to really see a location and to use a tripod if for no other reason than to force me to slow down and think about what I am seeing. I wasn't too excited about the location or the time of day, but it was a good spot to practice skills.

    Hiking in an out of the way location on the north east shore of Cape Breton there is a little fishing village called Smelt Brook Shore and this is a hike following the shoreline out to the sea. It was a windy day and the surf was amazing.

    Title or Location: Colombia, in the Sierra Nevada
    The Sierra Nevada is a bird photographer?s paradise. Traveling by 4x4 up the mountainside for 1 1/2 hours you are rewarded by an amazing assortment of birds. Fortunately, I turned around in time to capture this hummingbird, enjoying a sip of poinsettia!

    I use photography to help with my mental health and I love capturing the Chimpanzees and most primates due to how expressive they are. Many of my images that I post (like this one) are to represent how I am feeling at that moment in time.

    Title or Location: Cromwell Bottom Nature Reserve
    This is a shot of one of the many species (over 300 types in the uk) of long legged fly. These are predatory and this particular one is about 5mm long. Shot taken with a lumix g9 and 45mm macro lens using a flash and diffuser. Ive loved bugs my whole life and recently switched to macro due to the smaller gear and my ill health stopping me carrying larger gear. I love that there is a whole world in a bush.
