Where do the workshops take place?

The workshops are based in the New Forest in Hampshire and we will typically cover 3 to 4 distinct locations during the day. Please contact Mark to discuss this if necessary.

What level do I have to be?

Any level. Mark is experienced at teaching photographers of all abilities, from complete beginners to aspiring professionals.

What do I need to bring?

An SLR or mirrorless interchangeable lens system, a range of focal lengths (ideally from wide-angle to medium telephoto), enough memory cards (or film!) for the day's shoot, tripod and whatever filters or other accessories you already have. If required, Mark can lend you a tripod and / or filters for the day, but please let him know in advance. Also bring suitable clothing and footwear for the locations and time of year.

What if the weather is bad on the day?

One of the advantages of shooting in woodland is that it's a bit less weather-dependent than shooting open landscapes or seascapes. However, if the weather forecast is particularly bad, Mark will be in touch to arrange an alternative, mutually convenient date.

What happens once I have booked and paid my deposit?

Mark will contact you to discuss your requirements, potential locations and so on. He will then send a draft itinerary, which you can discuss with him and amend if necessary. The balance will be requested 48 hours before the workshop (or if the weather forecast is especially bad, the workshop will be rearranged at this stage).

What if I can't find a suitable date in the list of available dates?

Contact Mark to discuss it. He may be able to change some existing arrangements to make room for your workshop. If you don't ask, you'll never know!
