In addition to our very sucessful digital courses for beginners.
In conjunction with wildlife photographer Adrian Huxley, we are offering 1 day, 2 day and 5 day courses in wildlife.
The courses are based on a 400 acre estate in North Shropshire. The estate contains many species of birds and animals which can be photographed at close range from our pre-erected hides.
In addition to the birds and wild life the estate also boasts a wild flower pasture which contains some fantastic wild orchids.

"Remember me ? I came on 23 and 24 May. I said I would let you know
how my
Photography holiday to Spain went. I had a great time and I took some lovely
photos- which wouldn't have been possible had I not been on one of your courses
first.
I would have been lost had I not got to grips with F stops and depth of field
prior to the holiday. I even ended up imparting some knowledge to those less
knowledgeable than myself !!!
Thanks again and take care."
Debbie Magill
Forgive me for not writing sooner but I've been extremely busy in work
and putting into practice what I learnt on the recent course!
I think it necessary to express my appreciation for all you did on the recent
course that I attended as I learnt so much from it. Attending the course has
rejuvenated my photography and has made me a more competent photographer.
You also opened my eyes to the "landscape within a landscape" proving
the grand vista is not always necessary or desirable!
The bird photographs were amazing as well- must have been beginners luck!
Thanks again for your teaching, warmth and humour."
Alan Farley (Wrexham)
" The training I received from Trevor was the foundation to my career
as a Professional Photographer."
Stuart Eyres Chief Photographer CCLRC Daresbury Laboratory
"It's a nerve racking time when you are considering a new career
within the very competitive photographic industry. I spent a week with Trevor
learning the in's and out's of photographing house interiors and architecture.
Through his natural ability and experience of teaching, he was able to give
me the knowledge and confidence to go forward-
Thanks Trevor I'll be back."
Louise Bushell, Louise Bushell Photography, Hampshire.
"I first contacted Trevor in 1990 for a crash course in photography
prior to starting a new job as a Photographers Assistant.I have now worked
as a Portrait Photographer for the past 12 years and still ring Trevor for
advise in moments of crisis!!
His patience and expertise know no bounds and I would highly recommend him
as a teacher."
Mindy Clark, Oswestry.

Following a training in engineering. Trevor decided to study for a qualification
in photography.
He completed a Btec diploma course at Mid Cheshire College.
In 1985 he was presented with the BIPP National Student of the Year award.
Later that year he was successful in his diploma studies gaining distinction
in all nine study areas.
Trevor went on to teach up to City & Guild & Btec diploma level at Mid Cheshire College and North East Wales Institute.
Following commissions which have taken him as far as Australia & New Zealand he now runs his general photography business in South Cheshire. He still loves to teach and pass on his skills & experience to others. Apart from private tuition he offers short break courses which have proved extremely popular.
Although the silver image still gives him great satisfaction, the digital age has allowed him to cover more ground when teaching short courses.
Day One is spent learning basic theory followed by a field trip into the
beautiful scenery of North Wales to put theory into practice and develop skills.
Course numbers are limited to enable one-to-one instruction where required.
Day Two is spent downloading images and learning the basics of digital enhancement
and printing if required.
The practical content of courses will vary throughout the year to include portraits, architecture, interiors & wildlife. Please contact us to find out what's happening.
2 day course costs £180.00. Week long courses are by arrangement.
We look forward to meeting you........
We can take all major credit cards, please phone for details
