"I had an excellent day with Chris who carefully planned our day and took a great interest in our differing levels of skill and knowledge. He tailored the day to suit our level of capability and I think all of us got something different out of the day. I had no idea photos of a grey January day could be taken to look as spectacular as they did. I was impressed by his patient teaching and explanation of technical subjects which I previously had not understood. I cannot recommend highly enough and even a few hours of tuition has taken my skills to the next level"

Jamie L - 2018

"I didn’t realise it was possible to learn so much about camera settings and photography in just 3 hours! Not only are you a very skilful photographer you are also a brilliant teacher and I am truly grateful to you for enthusing what I expect will be a very engaging hobby. Both Hilary and myself will be booking some of your photo courses in the new year."

Trish T - 2014

"Thank you for the follow up notes and very informative photo workshop yesterday. It was really well presented and inspiring, your pictures are amazing. I look forward to joining you again on another of your workshops."

Paul K - 2014

"Thanks for this afternoon. It was exceptionally useful. I’ve spent another couple of hours playing with Photoshop. I know I’ve got so much more to learn but I can honestly say this was the most useful session of IT / software instruction I’ve ever had."

John S - 2016

"Glad that you seem really busy and that you are getting a great reputation because your courses are superb."

Sarah W - 2016

"I'd like to start by saying what an absolute pleasure it was to spend time with you on the landscape photography workshop last week. It is amazing that you managed to cater for both my novice needs together with Tony's more advanced requirements; you pitched things brilliantly for us both and were wonderfully patient, accommodating and encouraging. Your great teaching skills and your amazing photography expertise meant that the whole experience was a complete joy and revelation. You have certainly opened my eyes to a whole new world of photography and a whole new hobby now awaits me, which is incredibly exciting; I will always credit you in the future for starting me on this road - I cannot thank you enough"

Bridget W - 2016

"Thank you Chris for a fantastic course, your photos are inspirational! We both thoroughly enjoyed it, in fact Tom and I took what we learnt and tried it out at Lymington Quay on Sunday evening and will continue excitedly to enjoy our cameras now that we know what is going on in Manual! ..you have given us the tools to truly enjoy documenting our travels, thank you and all the best!"

Max & Tom - Mar 2014

"Thank you for yesterday’s class. It was really useful and I learned a lot. Especially your email made it perfect. You are a professional person and a really nice teacher. As a teacher with more than 30 years of teaching experience, I really know how knowledgeable and skilled you are".

Abbas S - Apr 2014

"thank you for a brilliant day yesterday - it delivered everything that I had hoped for and a lot more. Not only did I appreciate your photographic skills but your wildlife knowledge was truly amazing. I now feel confident to go out on my own and explore the natural world. I’ve not yet downloaded them onto my computer but just checking them yesterday evening in camera there are some really great photographs. Doubtless I will be seeking your help to identify most of the species!! Thanks again for a memorable day"

Gareth M - 2016

"Just a quick note to thank you for a superb few days in Cornwall. The locations were excellent, well thought out from a "best time and place" photography perspective and not too much travel involved between each place. Your guidance and your personal professional nuggets of advice really helped bring to life what I thought would be bland photos. Suffice to say, having had a quick skim through my photos now I'm home, I am delighted with the outcomes. Thanks again and look forward to the next one.....please include a slippery slipway for those more humorous moments!!!!

Craig B - 2017

"I have just returned from an afternoon spent with Chris on his Kimmeridge and Durdle Door photographic workshop. Whilst I met the group at Kimmeridge, Chris met up with the other 2 participants at a convenient location near to Southampton and chauffeured them to and from the locations. I am sure that some really helpful advice was given on the journeys. Throughout the afternoon and into the early evening Chris was the perfect tutor, sharing his knowledge, expertise and even equipment with the group. At no point was anything too much trouble. I thought I knew how to use my camera, but with a couple of tweaks from Chris it turned into a far more useful piece of kit. Some of the images I captured, with technical and compositional guidance from Chris, were fantastic. In addition the guidance notes sent after the course are really useful as well. I cannot recommend Chris highly enough and if you have the opportunity to join him for one of his workshops don’t hesitate. I know I will be back for more in the future. Thanks for a great afternoon Chris"

Mark P - 2017

"Thank you so much for such a thoroughly enjoyable and great day; both Chris and myself had a fantastic time. Your approach was spot on, with just the right amount of teaching input and time to explore our cameras, lenses and filters. Catering for our range of abilities you explain things really clearly and simply in a friendly and informative manner that just made the time disappear. We both learnt so much and as so often it is the simplest tips on how to achieve the results that stick; it has certainly rekindled my enthusiasm. Once again thank you for sharing not only your extensive knowledge and company but the great locations we visited. Look forward to meeting up again in the near future."

Nigel & Chris W - May 2014

"I had a fantastic afternoon on Sunday. It was really great to meet you and Jamie. The locations we visited were really inspiring, and I will certainly return to each of them. I will definitely book another day with you later in the year."

Andy N - 2016

"Thank you very much for this morning’s instruction. I thought it was well organised, at the right level of detail and well delivered ensuring that all participants needs were met. The chance to experiment in a guided way and without any pressure was invaluable and after having quickly reviewed my photos there are some very good shots. I have taken away many things from this morning regarding landscape photography and will practice them to continue to improve. The major learning moment for me was the use of hyperfocal distance and switching to manual from auto focusing. I now have the confidence to use manual focusing and this technique much more. The written notes and guidance/ links are also first class and in an understandable form I can print off and keep with me as an aide memoire"

David G - May 2014

"Firstly thank you for a great workshop, the 3 hours flew by and both Jan & I can’t remember learning so much in such a short time! The notes are great, providing a reference to every thing you covered. It was pitched at exactly the right level, giving us all the tools and inspiration to do more. We will certainly be signing up on one of your smaller group workshops soon."

David & Jan G - June 2014

"Fantastic talk - Chris was a great speaker, he showed a lot of interesting images, gave lots of interesting useful and valuable advice and left the members buzzing. Thank you!"

Southampton Camera Club Aug 17

"I really enjoyed this morning and think you are a fantastic teacher. I really appreciated the care you took answering my questions and the way your help is always clear and specific. I feel I learned a lot which is very exciting."

Helen P - Apr 2014

"My order was received today. The photos are beautiful. I have purchased them for my friend who emigrated to Australia, as a little reminder of her roots......she will be very pleased."

Jo G - Mar 2014

"The lesson has certainly taken my photography onto a new level !!!!"

Richard M - May 2014

"Great morning out, Summer, my daughter learnt a lot and you encourage her to want to know more. Thank you"

Julie D - May 2014

"Thank you for what you did yesterday, not just your excellent and patient tuition (and no doubt about it I gained important knowledge with equipment and techniques, which coupled with my previous knowledge, will significantly improve my ability to compose and take pictures) but also your kindness in driving us everywhere. I for one am definitely up for another session with you, especially your Dorset trip."

Glyn P - 2014

"Really enjoyed meeting you and thank you for your help. The notes below and attached are absolutely fantastic and I am much happier using my camera. You are a very patient and obviously talented photographer."

Shona A - May 2014

"Excellent would recommend to others"

Jan F - Apr 2014

"I had a great evening out shooting with you (as always!) see you in a couple of weeks time"

Emily E - 2015

"Thank you so much for a very enjoyable morning by the sea, and the insight into landscape photography. Your photo’s are truly inspiring, and i hope one day to try and get some photographs a little bit near the content of yours."

Helen B - 2015

"Hi Chris, Thank you for a brilliant day on the Dorset Coast, the best I have had for ages. It is a gift to be able to transfer skills and knowledge, you are a fantastic tutor and an amazing landscape photographer. I look forward to our next workshop and now know the level I want to aspire to. Many thanks"

Adrian R - 2016

"Chris, many thanks for a great day. I was very apprehensive thinking I would be too much a beginner and too old to learn modern digital concepts but you made it very relaxing and easy to absorb. Well done!"

David L Aug 2014

"A brilliant lecture last evening; the best I have attended by far! It was very informative & it was also great to see so many of your lovely images. You were certainly kept busy all the while and I don`t think you even had time to drink your coffee!"

Heath G-H - 2016

"Thank you so much for such an enjoyable and informative session. Not only are you an extremely skilful photographer, your photograph's are stunning, you are also a brilliant teacher. I learned so much from just one session, photographic terminology actually makes sense, I better know my own camera and I can't wait to put it all into practice. I will definitely be booking more sessions!"

Taster Session Participant - 2014

"I thought that you had an easy style which put everyone at their ease. I particularly liked the way that you took time to talk to the group as a whole followed by some 1:1 time. I felt that as a result of this my understanding of composition (something I wanted to improve) developed further. I also liked the fact that you encouraged us all to take our time and think things through - making suggestions that pointed towards a different line of thinking than would have perhaps occurred naturally! I also liked the follow up email and very datelined notes that you sent to each of us. This (for me) was something that put the workshop above some of the others that I have attended. It means that I can refer back to these and use them when I can't quite remember what to do - something that happens a bit more often nowadays! Thank you for the workshop, it was very worthwhile and helped me enormously."

Darren N - 2015

“I spent a day with Chris to help me make the transition from point and click to SLR before I bought the camera. Following an introduction to the basics we visited three different locations to put theory into practice. Chris is an excellent tutor, patient, helpful and passionate about his photography. I came away with a clear understanding what I wanted to do and the guarantee of follow-up help from Chris. I will be back for more of his workshops”

Meyrick W - Apr 2014

"Thanks for the course at Lepe this morning Chris! It was very interesting and enjoyable, and it reignited my passion for photography. I will definitely be signing up for one of the smaller group courses at some point!"

Rich H - 2015

"I just wanted to say that I think your work is stunning, I saw your Durdle Door picture and others hanging at Moors Valley Country Park. So beautiful I could hardly tear my eyes away"

Jess C - 2015

"Thank you so much for today. We were a very wide group of experiences but I felt learnt everyone learnt something new. It was useful that you could go around on a 121 so that people could ask questions at their own level. I am very keen to try out some of the new ideas and know a little more about what I need to add to my equipment. I will spend some time getting more confident with my camera and try another of your workshops later in the year. Thanks again."

Doreen G - May 2014

"Thank you again ever so much for the day yesterday! I thoroughly enjoyed it and am so grateful to you for showing me how to achieve the results I asked about! I am so excited now to invest in some more equipment and get back out taking some more photos and would be thrilled to ever achieve any images on a par with yours!"

Jasmine B - Jan 2014

"Hi Chris, thank you for a great session, I thought your level of preparation for the locations on Martin Down and your knowledge was exceptional."

Bernard B - 2015

"Very enjoyable & informative session. Would thoroughly recommend this."

Celia B - Apr 2014

"Many thanks for a most enjoyable and informative course yesterday. I learnt so much! Now I have to put it into practice!"

Ian P - 2015

"Firstly, thank you so much for the comprehensive notes - they are brilliant and will be SO useful. I really did enjoy yesterday. As I mentioned, I usually find group or even 121 tuition daunting but can honestly say that I really did value and enjoy the time with you. You explain things clearly and have immense patience. It felt ‘ok’ to make mistakes!"

Michelle H

"Chris was great. Very organised and skilled. I learnt much more than on longer more expensive courses. It has rekindled my enthusiasm. I can thoroughly recommend. "

Barry L - Feb 2014

"I just wanted to say thank you so much for a great workshop yesterday, thank you for helping me to sort out the exposure and focusing on my camera. I am sure that I will be getting back to you soon to arrange another workshop, hopefully a full day one with my friend."

Julia M - Apr 2014

"Just a quick note to say thank you so much for the wonderful Landscape Course yesterday. Zoe is absolutely buzzing following the course and has captured some wonderful shots...your tuition has changed my photography for the better, looking over the shots from yesterday, I cannot believe that I took them !!! Huge thanks for an excellent course, Zoe and I will be back for the Jurassic Coast workshop and perhaps for a one to one session in a month or so. Brilliant day thanks so very much."

Sarah & Zoe - May 2014

"Hi Chris, I had a fantastic day and now have much better understand of how I can get the most out a camera and its function. Thanks"

Colin B - 2015

"Patient, pitched for all abilities, knowledgeable and approachable. A great way to become more confident with your camera."

Kim S - June 2014

"Excellent course. Thoroughly recommended. Really nice guy always willing to help."

Natalya B - 2014

Thanks for a superb few days last week. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was really pleased with the photos that came out of it. Great locations, it is clear you have done your homework and identified best locations at best time of day re tide/ sun etc etc. Excellent explanations and guidance from yourself. You have great skill and knowledge and a very nice relaxed teaching approach which really helps"

Craig B 2016

"Just a note to say how much I enjoyed the Jurassic Coast course on Saturday, I am blown away by how much I learnt on the course and it has really given me the skills I was looking for to make full use of both my camera and the wide angle lens and to improve my overall photography. The location was superb and the whole day was so much fun. I was so pleased with the pictures when I reviewed them last night and my beach shot of the receding sea has shot up to popular (how proud am I !!.) Thank you so much for your wonderful Course and excellent tuition, see you one Friday soon for some Lightroom training."

Sarah W - 2014

"Thanks again for the workshop on Saturday. I found it very informative and very useful. I thought you struck the right balance when getting across some fairly technical information to a group of people with a variety of technical knowledge and experience. I came away inspired to improve my landscape photography and start building my experience."

John T - May 2014

"It was a real privilege to see your exhibition at Moors Valley today. I really had to let you know how much I appreciated the sheer quality of your work. As an amateur who dabbles in landscapes I can see the total attention to detail combined with vision for the wider perspective and composition. And I assume you must use top notch printing judging from what we saw today."

Jonathan M

"Thank you for a very informative and enjoyable workshop. I learned a lot and it really helped me think more about what makes the difference between a good shot and boring shot. I’m definitely interested in taking part in some of your other workshops in the future."

Paul W - 2015

"Hi Chris, just a quick thanks to say the two workshops I did with you this year were so beneficial and have really made a difference."

Christine S - 2014

"I cannot begin to tell you how much I learnt from your course and how easily I managed to understand your delivery of information. I am very interested in a 121 course with you covering seascapes which really do interest me. I loved your photo of Durdle Door and I am very keen to photograph and practice on the Dorset coast."

Kevin B - May 2014

"That's brilliant Chris, Thanks so much for the useful Lightroom notes and screen shot web settings. You have helped me enormously. I've enjoyed playing around with Lightroom and getting to grips with the editing tools. Your attached notes have helped clarify areas where I was struggling a little particularly re adjustments for printing. The next thing I need to do is to purchase some photo paper and download the compatible software."

Vanessa L

"I would say that the way in which you communicated the Summer Butterflies workshop booking, the conduct of the workshop and the follow up information you provided has set the bar incredibly high for any other photography workshops that I attend in the future that may be organised by you or other photography professionals. The choice of location was excellent and I took over 250 images in the 1st location alone, an absolute testimony not only to the location itself but specifically your ability to spot the photographic subjects. I have nothing but praise for your help and will certainly attend more of your workshops in the future"

John L - Aug 2018

"A fantastic afternoon at St Catherine's Hill, Winchester with Chris Button Photography for a macro photography course. Learnt a great deal from a very patient, calm and incredibly knowledgeable teacher...thank you Chris".

Delia A - Aug 2017

"A fabulous in-depth, but without being overwhelming experience. Superbly presented with consideration to all levels and age. Thoroughly recommended and terrific value. Cant wait for the next one. 5*****"

Geoff D - 2015

"I had a fantastic time and feel that I now have a basic understanding of how to use my camera but I am looking forward to learning much more! We are hoping to do one of your workshops so hopefully we will be in touch with you soon."

Colette J - 2015

"Fantastic taster course! I'll be back in touch as want to do the Jurassic Coast one later in the year too. I had such a great morning and learned lots in just 3 hours...Excellent handouts and instructions, well organised. Friendly and considerate...Very impressed with the photoshoot and would definitely recommend...Well-presented session with many great tips followed by a comprehensive information sheet...Thank you Chris Button Photography, I plan on contacting you for some more tuition. You are most definitely worth spending money with for photography tuition...A brilliant and informative session that makes me want to continue...Thank you so much for an expert and professionally presented introductory lesson. I really want to learn more and will definitely be attending your other sessions throughout the year...Chris was great. Good explanations and fun workshop... An excellent afternoon that passed too quickly. I came away a lot more confident in using an SLR"

Various - 2014

"Chris agreed to photograph our daughter's naming ceremony and we're so glad he did. He showed a real commitment to making sure we got a great record of the day, visiting the venue before the event to think about lighting and good positions for shots, calling us in advance of the day and arriving early on the day to again check he was well set-up. He got a great set of images both formal and informal and really captured the spirit of the day. He also got the finished edited versions of the photos over to us really quickly, in both hi-res and low-res so that we had ones for printing and ones for sharing online. We were really happy with the results and would definitely recommend Chris."

Jevon S - 2015

"Thank you for an amazing time in Cornwall, I learnt so much about so many things, now I just have to keep practicing and remember it all. You have such a wonderful enthusiasm for photography and I am sure it has rubbed off on us. You have an ability to make everyone feel at ease, that is a gift, do not lose it."

Christine D - 2018

"I really admire your work and every interaction I have ever had with you has been notable for the incredible care and generosity with which you have responded and the clarity of your explanations"

Helen P - 2015

"Hi Chris, Thoroughly enjoyed the course this morning, learnt so much in such a short time, thank you."

Karen N - 2015

"Very glad I attended, highlighted areas I was unsure of, very encouraging & enjoyable session. Am keen to take up opportunities to attend further classes"

Taster Session Participant - 2014

"Thanks for the new images in your update. Absolutely stunning, may I one day achieve something similar..."

Steve P - 2015

"I have just had a quick glance at the photos I took and really, I am astonished at the difference between No 1 and No 80 something...Thank you so much for all your hard work today and with these notes. Absolutely invaluable."

Maryanna R - Apr 2014

"Thanks again for a cracking morning."

Tony C - 2015

"The photos are absolutely beautiful, I am so pleased with them – I spent 15mins looking at them all once everyone had gone home last night and they really are quite beautiful and all so different – each time I look at them I see something different. They have gone down really well in the office as well. Thank you so much for all you have done and I am really looking forward to working with you again".

Julie W - Apr 2014

"Firstly, I would like to thank you for an excellent morning last Wednesday as not only did I learn a great deal but my enthusiasm for photography has been re-ignited! The indoor session worked for me as I think you need as much theory as you can get before you go out there to practice. The information and links you subsequently sent through is extensive and first class. I have already ordered the book and about to order filters (once I have decided what to buy) and a remote switch. I will purchase a wide angle lens in the near future and currently I am leaning towards the Sigma you quote in your notes. Once again sincere thanks for a very professional workshop - it is my intention to join you on a workshop next year but in the meantime I will try to turn the theory into practice!"

Ken W - 2014

"Thanks for a great afternoon. I learnt a lot, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Although a complete beginner, you never made me feel stupid or useless, and I will definitely booking further courses with you in the future - the only difficulty is choosing which one!"

Diane F - 2014

"I really enjoyed the workshop, it was very informative and I really feel I have learned some great tips. You made it seem really easy and the notes are great for reference in the future, I certainly want to do a coastal workshop and may well drag my sister along for a Dorset coast experience, I will come back to you in the coming weeks to arrange something. Once again many thanks Chris, I was quite worried I didn't know enough before the workshop but you made me feel comfortable and helped me achieve some images I am actually really proud of"

Denise H

"You are a gem Chris, you are one of the very few kind hearted and talented photographers to share your knowledge and secrets. You have taught me a lot and I am so very grateful"

Vanessa L - 2016

"We both had a really brilliant time. I would recommend your workshop to anyone who mentions to me about wanting to do one. Just the right amount of theory, practical and attention if needed."

Carla & Viv - May 2014

"Thanks for a brilliant morning in the New Forest, Chris - thoroughly enjoyed the workshop."

Dee D - Apr 2014

"Hi Chris, just wanted to thank you for great course on 20/07/2016 at Bratley View, it was a great course full of content & practicality & presented in an easily understood manner - it put to bed many mysteries for me. Super course/workshop, have & will recommend it."

Derek T - 2016

"Thanks so much Chris for the great course. I will be asking father Christmas for some filters! The notes are really helpful too. I will definitely consider a workshop in the Spring"

Liz R - 2014

"Hi Chris, Brilliant presentation this evening, stunning photographs. People I spoke to afterwards said how much they'd learned from all the info you shared and how your talk was one of the best held at the club."

Maggie H - 2015

"Thanks Chris. It was great fun and you are always inspiring!"

Ali M - 2015

"Thank you for a great session yesterday...you have whetted my appetite and now I cannot wait to upgrade my camera and get the additional filters which will help massively. Thank you also for the advice and links."

Brin H - Mar 2014

"Thank you for my 121 session with you yesterday. I enjoyed it immensely and am now much more confident about correct in camera exposure. You were patient with me and generous with your knowledge, pitching it at exactly the right level for me to feel that I have moved forward a big step in my ability to take the kind of landscape photos I desire. I look forward to spending time with you again in the future either on a different photo speciality or perhaps one of your other landscape courses. Thank you again for an exceptional day of instruction"

Geoff P - 2018

"If I am honest, you are the most helpful photographer I have ever met. I have approached others in respect of a comment of great image where abouts was it taken? And been met with frosty replies where people don't want to share info. Some photographers are under a very selfish illusion that some locations have been found by them and should not be shared. You are incredibly helpful with info about locations and printing... and queries I have! You have no idea how much i appreciate it."

Anon

"you are truly unique, honest, richly talented and genuinely interested in your students from the first recce to delivering the workshop and beyond"

Adrian R - 2017

"Really enjoyable photography workshop. Chris's is an excellent teacher as well as photographer."

Anon - 2015

"Thank you for another great workshop. Very informative with the right amount of tuition. Many thanks again Pete"

Pete T - 2015

"Obviously big, BIG Thank-you! For a wonderful photography tutorial and your seemingly effortless explanations that continued throughout the day. Also much thanks for your follow up email, complete with all your notes, which I know, even before I finish reading them for the first time me and my short-term memory will always be grateful for. Thanks again."

Sam D - 2017

"Hi Chris, May I say a big thanks for Saturday. I learned a lot and will use it in the future. A great day out and worth every penny . Sure I will do another one in the future."

Steve C - 2015

"Many thanks for a wonderful evening. "A speaker a cut above' 'What a superb evening'. Are just two comments I heard before I left the building. I'm sure I will hear more when the club meets next. You certainly wowed them, the preparation and detail was so impressive. The images were pretty good too! I look forward to joining you for a workshop sooner rather than later. Look forward to keeping in touch"

Rob T - 2016

"Chris, Thanks once again for coming to the rescue. I could hardly drag myself away from the computer last night I was so amazed at the difference on screen with my photos. Tonight I'll print some off. Mike has ordered the 'thingy' for calibrating the computer screen so it will be interesting to see if we actually notice any change. Mikes computer is much older than mine so he might see a change, mine might be more subtle. We know far less than we ever imagined!!"

Maggie H - 2015

"Thanks Chris – great day, great company. Much appreciated."

Paul T - 2015

"Many thanks for the workshop and the notes yesterday. It was a fantastic afternoon, and I learned so much!"

Ian R - 2016

"I thoroughly enjoyed the course on Thursday and went out Friday, Saturday and Sunday to practise my composition. I really enjoyed the relaxed nature of Thursday morning. You were very approachable and available; I didn’t feel silly asking basic questions, as a beginner these things can be quite daunting. I found it especially useful when you showed us how to do things using your own camera – I find it much easier to learn that way. All in all extremely helpful and I’m sure you will be seeing me again on one of your courses soon."

Jenny N - May 2014

"Superb for information, support, patience, value and professionalism as always. Highly recommended "

Geoff D - 2015

"Many thanks for your email and your very comprehensive notes. I thought your workshop was excellent. I feel fully invigorated and look forward to applying my new knowledge. I would definitely like to attend future workshops, finances and time willing and would not hesitate to recommend you. Please can you continue to include me on your circulation list as its inspiring to see your photos"

Tony H - 2015

"Absolutely fantastic! Very good ability of dealing with people of different experiences. I didn't feel that the theory was too much, in fact it helped to support some of the knowledge I have already learned. Very keen to have one on one session once I have built on my current knowledge so that I get the most out of the day."

Chris H - Mar 2014

"A first rate talk Chris, thanks. To any club programme organisers - I can highly recommend Chris as a speaker, he provides clear, well presented information on how to get the best from the situation backed up by some stunning images. One of the best evenings I've been to for a long time."

Brian W - 2015

"Thank you for the comprehensive notes and for the informative workshop yesterday. It inspired me so much I was out in the fields at 6am this morning with camera and tripod in hand for the early morning mist and sunrise. The dogs thought Christmas had come early!"

Helen M

"Having completed two sessions with you now, and they couldn’t be further apart (Macro & Land/Seascape), I would just like to register my sincere appreciation for your time and effort both in preparation for, during and after both sessions. Many of us can look but don’t necessarily see what is in front of us, I have to say that on the Macro session you certainly showed me what and how to look for the subject(s). The affable way in which you impart bite sized chunks, supported by demonstrations and followed up by written notes, makes for a good all round tutorial. All of this coupled with the additional links to equipment, suggested reading materials and more, will ensure that I would recommend you to anyone interested in starting or developing their photographic skills. Many thanks Chris & I look forward to working with you again."

Paul S - 2014

"Thank you so much for your terrific talk on Thursday evening. It was enjoyed by everyone and we really appreciated the technical tips and ideas that went with the photos. I cannot thank you enough for stepping in at the last moment and we all thought that your talk was our best of the year."

Anne R - 2015

"Thanks for another lovely workshop - I really enjoyed it. They cheer me up and give me a real confidence boost with my developing camera skills."

Fay Q - 2016

"today was enormous fun and enormously informative. Your passion for your subject is infectious. You judged your audience well - certainly in my case - and kept things crystal clear and super simple. Thus no technological crises for the technologically illiterate. No mean feat. Thank you again."

Jamie B

"I had a fab day yesterday and really enjoyed myself. Not only did I learn some valuable Macro photography tips, your friendly and patient approach made me feel at ease enabling me to feel more confident and take better photos. It was such a friendly group and I had a great afternoon. Thank you so much."

Vanessa L - 2015
