   I attended a beginners' group photography course with Glen on Saturday, and it was such a great experience! My husband has had lots of nice cameras for a while, but I honestly had no idea how to use them properly so wanted to learn. Glen was very patient, and he explained everything in a way that made sense and never made anyone feel rushed. In the afternoon, we went outside as a group, and Glen showed us lots of creative ways to take better shots. He gave everyone individual tips too, which made a big difference. The day was relaxed and friendly, and I left feeling excited to start taking photos on my own. Thanks so much!

   I thoroughly enjoyed the beginner photography course I recently completed. Glen was incredibly knowledgeable and supportive throughout, making even the most technical aspects feel approachable. Thanks to his clear guidance, I now understand how to use my camera properly and what all those buttons actually do! I feel so much more confident behind the lens. Glen’s teaching style was especially effective—he introduced the fundamentals in a way that made sense, then encouraged us to put them into practice straight away. The course was both accessible and insightful. I’m excited to explore more classes and continue building on what I’ve learned!

   Amazing course! Really informative! A great mix of classroom type activities and practical! Glen was awesome, very knowledgeable and helpful. I really didn’t think I could learn so much in one day. Thank you! I’ll definitely be back to do some of the other courses

   Signed up to the beginners class as I had bought a new camera and wanted to get the best out of it. I can’t recommend this course enough. It was fabulous. Mix of theory and practice with no jargon. Suitable for even the most beginner like me or someone that wants to get the best out of their camera - why go for average? Glen will give his professional photographer outlook to get a better than average picture what to do and look out for to get a good photo. It was worth every penny. When I got home put into practice what I had learned….. Thanks Glen

   I attended one of Glen’s beginners courses and it was absolutely brilliant. Glen is not only a superb photographer but also an excellent teacher. I have attended many courses in my long professional life (nothing to do with photography) and I can honestly say that this is the best course I have ever attended. I learned more from Glen in a day than I ever have from watching YouTube videos. I will be attending more of his courses, which is the highest recommendation that I can give him. Simply top notch.

   Can highly recommend a course with Glen. Everything is very well explained and there’s plenty of practical advice and suggestions to help you put together the theory side of things. Glen is an excellent, enthusiastic, and friendly teacher, who makes sure every student gets great value from every course.

   Glen is a fantastic teacher. The courses are well balanced between theory and practical activities. They are all small groups so you get help when you need it. Glen always reviews images at the end so you get useful feedback too. I like the excellent handouts and have many now which are great for reference. I have loved the challenges in ‘zoom’ club too during lockdown with great advise and practical activities. Highly recommend his courses.

   I love taking photos and my husband bought me a budget Canon camera for Christmas but I had no idea how to use the features on it so just used auto settings. I then googled and found Glen’s courses. The course was very relaxed in Glen’s home. We all learnt so much about what our cameras could do and why. The morning we learnt the theory and in the afternoon we headed out into the lovely village of Smeeton Westerby to put what we’d learnt into practice, then returned to analyse everyone’s pictures. I was so pleased with what my camera could do and can’t wait to count all my new skills into practice. Thank you very much Glen for making the day enjoyable and so informative.
