I am really enjoying my photography course and lockdown is giving me lots of time to do it. – Tilly

It has been a great beginners introduction on photography. This course has taught my son Arun, to look at the world in a different way. It’s a fun thing to consider if you are looking to take up photography as a hobby. Lillie was really helpful and approachable.”
Great course. My son has learnt a lot and has come away inspired to capture images of the world around him. 5 stars”
I loved the course because at the beginning I had never done any photography before. I have learnt how to really be creative with photos and use all the different settings to my advantage. 5 stars

Great course for beginners, really helps you to understand how to use your camera and what the different settings do. It’s a really fun and easy skill to do as a hobby or as a course for DofE. I have learnt how to capture exactly what I want.

On the other hand I felt my strongest week was Week 5 as I found my groove and I was photographing a subject which I thought was very interesting.”

Nina (Parent)
“Helped me to get a grasp of what settings to use and use the environment to my advantage” Rated 5 out of 5
My son had a great time learning about photography & finding ways to capture the way he sees the world as part of his DofE. As a beginner to using a digital SLR camera he learned how to handle the features of the camera & grew in confidence through the course. Sharp Shots were very helpful in helping us find a reasonably priced second hand DSLR which did the job for this course & is a creative hobby that my son wants to keep doing. Thanks to all at Sharp Shots. Hope to see you on the Silver DofE course in the near future. All the best.”
