Nigel made learning about the manual settings of my DSLR and making photos without relying on auto modes easy and fun, and put the creative effects that can be made well within reach. Thoroughly enjoyable and informative with a great balance of theory and practice. Thank you!

I have taken two online courses with Nigel and found both very rewarding. Very quickly, a friendly, welcoming and supportive atmosphere was created. The subject was explored using examples from other well-known photographer's work. Then we were given a task to perform over the lunch break. Reconvening, we shared our results and discussed the successes, which everyone had. This was a very positive experience, with no-one feeling threatened, under pressure or belittled in any way. The session finished with a good summary and plenary suggesting next steps. The whole day was an enjoyable experience encouraging me to do more and follow up what I had learned. I'm happy to recommend the online courses to others new to photography and looking to improve.

I have attended a few on-line workshops and one in person workshop at BWC. I can recommend Nigel as a well-prepared, interesting and enthusiastic teacher. Students can learn a great deal from him. I hope to do more of his courses in future.

Nigel was extremely friendly, informative, very engaging with the students, kept the sessions lively and constructive. I learnt a lot in a very short period of time (1 weekend Saturday and Sunday).
The venue used was comfortable and Nigel went out of his way to make sure we as students were well cared for. I cannot recommend Nigel enough and I have recommended a number of personal friends who have subsequently attended his courses too.

Nigel explains about the various camera settings in such a way, that you understand it first time around. It’s been a joy to become a more confident photographer under the watchful guidance of Nigel.

I have attended at least 3 different courses with Nigel over the last few years and have loved every one of them. I have learnt more about my camera and photography each time and Nigel’s patience is always evident. Looking forward to in person courses some day soon again but have really enjoyed the online options in the meantime too. Thank you

Nigel takes the mystery out of the camera and all the settings. His ability to explain topics simply makes learning easy. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to get more out of their camera.

Upon buying a new DSLR camera, Nigel's beginners course was the perfect introduction to understanding my camera, as well as learning exposure, composition and different photography techniques. I would thoroughly recommend that anybody new to photography go on this course as it will hopefully pave the way for a fun and informed journey into the world of photography. Nigel is a fantastic teacher, and I have since attended 3 other of his courses (night time, wildlife and long exposure) and would happily sign up for more in the future.

Nigel's classes have been a huge inspiration to me as a keen hobbyist photographer. His classes are fun, relaxed and full of clear guidance and information to help you understand your camera and take better photographs. You are also encouraged to work things out yourself and go beyond your comfort zone. Some of my favourite photos were taken during Nigel's sessions.

I have been on a number of Nigel's courses and found them all to be great fun as well as instructive. I can particularly recommend the London night shoot along the Thames bridges and the long exposure one on Brighton beach.

I have been on at least six classes run by Nigel, and ‘Understanding your Camera’ was the first. Nigel taught us in a logical, easy to understand way with plenty of opportunities for us to put theory into practice during the session. Nigel sent us out with some photographic projects to try which were related to the course and the results were sensitively critiqued in the final session. This was a very enjoyable and worthwhile experience.

Great evening in London shooting the bridges. Nigel was very friendly, patient and explained clearly about how to obtain great shots.

I have attended a number of Nigel’s photography workshops both in person and online and have always found I have learnt a lot and come away motivated to try new things. Nigel is very knowledgeable, a great teacher and goes at a pace that is suitable for all members of the workshop.

From start to finish, the most engaging, informative & worthwhile 2 days when it came to learning about my DSLR camera.
I certainly came away totally motivated to hone my skills, which has subsequently shown in my images captured.
So glad I took the course!

This course was the perfect way to get to grips with my camera and start producing better photographs. Nigel has a knack for explaining everything clearly and covers a lot of ground so you leave feeling like you've made real progress. The sessions take place in a beautiful private members club in Soho, with lots of tea and biscuits. The course is designed to pack the most into the time without overloading students, while practical sessions in the streets outside allow you to put new skills into practice and receive invaluable feedback on your efforts. I really enjoyed attending and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to improve their photographs and gain confidence with their camera.

I have attended several of Nigel’s online courses and can highly recommend them. Nigel’s workshops are thoroughly prepared, interesting and easy to follow and I have learned so much about Photography from Nigel’s enthusiasm and ability to make you think about the subject and push yourself to be experimental but under expert guidance.

Nigel was very informative, reignited my passion for using my camera and gave me new confidence to try new things. I finally understood things I've been trying to work out reading magazines etc... The venue was lovely very central. Will definitely come to another class soon

Nigel has an amazing way of teaching. I did an into to camera course before elsewhere but was so confused. Joined Nigel’s class and he had such patience with someone so frustrated. I since attended more of Nigel’s courses and can’t wait to join more in the future. Even after my course, I was able to ask for advice and share some of my work.

I really enjoyed Nigel's workshop. He is engaging and covers his subject really well. I would absolutely do as many workshops with him as I can.

Leant how to use my camera understanding of aperture and shutter speed. The course also covered process of composition of photos. Nigel is a great teacher nothing is too much trouble and explains everything in a easy way for all styles of learning. His courses are great a lot is packed into the time. The venue was very nice clean and tidy perfect for learning.

He is a great teacher as well. A seasoned professional who can deftly handle queries as they arise. His love and enthusiasm of and for photography in all its aspects shines through. Truly inspirational!
Thank you so much for your help over the years.
