From the first frame to the photograph you meant to make.
Spend four hours exploring London with James, then return to your images in a separate two-hour Lightroom workshop. This is a private experience for photographers who want to connect what happens on location with the decisions that give a finished image its character.
On location
Work on composition, exposure and light along a route tailored to your interests. Learn to shoot with the edit in mind and recognise the frames worth developing.
In Lightroom
Choose your strongest images and work through a practical approach to colour, tone, cropping and local adjustments. Explore how to create a consistent feel while keeping the photograph believable.
Included: a four-hour private shoot and a separate two-hour editing workshop for one person. The editing session can take place online by arrangement. Bring a camera; for the workshop you will need a computer with Lightroom installed. Software subscriptions are not included. No physical gift box is included.
Duration & party: 4-hour shoot + 2-hour editing session · one person. The price is for the complete private booking.
