Terms and Conditions
Savernake Forest Photography Group Workshop (Max 6 Participants)
This group workshop will be limited to just 6 people, ensuring you get our full attention throughout and experience some of our favourite locations in their best conditions. When adding the workshop to your basket, please let us know of any individual requirements and what you’d personally like to achieve from the session.
Between us we will cover everything from planning a sunrise/sunset, understanding how weather and conditions should dictate locations you visit, and how to use the seasons to your advantage. You will only require a basic understanding of how your camera works, with plenty of time for us to show you some best practices of how to set it up with a focus for landscape photography.
Each workshop is completely unique, depending solely on the conditions and weather on the day - we will work with this to create different types of images and get the best from whatever skies/light we have on the day. You will receive honest feedback and advice to help you on your landscape photography journey, no matter what your current experience.
