Client Testimonials

I thoroughly enjoyed the Glencoe workshop and spent the 4 days with lovely company. We had some pretty wet weather to contend with but David always found somewhere for us to shoot. I finally learnt how to get the best settings out of my camera. David was very patient and very knowledgeable. The areas he took us to were stunning and I got some stunning photographs. I cant wait until I can do another workshop with him

A great day out leading to a lot more confidence! My husband booked the beginners' workshop for me and I was pretty nervous, as well as excited, about it. I shouldn't have worried! David uses a pre-questionnaire to gauge your experience- I joked to friends that the only question I was confident to answer was the one about the camera itself - but it turns out, I was wrong about that as well! So you can understand that I was a total beginner! But after a quick chat and some camera basics, we were off and photographing! We visited great locations, I learned how to put the discussions into action and it was easy to experiment and see the impact of making changes. After lunch, David encouraged me to start experimenting myself with the choice of subjects, which felt great. I came away, with my expectations more than met, some great pictures and the understanding and enthusiasm to take my new hobby to the next stage. If you are considering one of David's courses, go on, give it a go!

I joined David on his Whitby workshop. A great day, I came away feeling far more confident about photography in general. I hope to do another day with David in the future.

I recently completed a 3 day course in the Yorkshire Dales, and it was great. I'm not a beginner, and I've been using DSLR's for 15 years or so. But David taught me a lot of new techniques and introduced me to half a dozen features that I've never used on my camera before. And even though the course was mixed ability I always felt that I had personal attention, and suggestions. He also knew all the best spots to go to across the whole range of weather that we had, from gusty sunshine to pouring rain (and the best places for breakfast...). I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend David to anyone looking to take their next step in photography. It's reawakened my interest, and I'm back out there trying things out.

Many thanks for an excellent two day workshop in the Lake District. It was not solely about composition and technical development ( and it was very much tailored to individual needs) but also the introduction of some stunning new locations and view points for me. I cannot recommend this weekend enough.

First off, David is an extremely talented photographer who produces some wonderful images – just check out his gallery if you haven’t already done so. He is also a top guy, very friendly with a great sense of humour, and someone who really cares about making sure that the clients on his workshops get the very best experience possible. He tailors the tuition to suit everyone’s ability and is extremely generous in sharing his experience and know-how (this is not the case with all photography tutors in my experience). We had a great day around Robin Hoods Bay. David knows his locations intimately and made sure we were in the right spot at the right time. The practical advice was supplemented with examples drawn from his own work to explain principles of composition etc and we even managed to squeeze in a really useful photoshop tutorial over lunch in a cafe overlooking the bay – wonderful! All in all a totally absorbing day which was great fun and has moved my photography skills on in leaps and bounds!

June 2021. I have just returned from my first 1-2-1 tuition workshop with David in Swaledale. I thoroughly enjoyed the day, the advice, information and guidance offered by David in his relaxed, unpretentious manner. We visited some beautiful locations, and he left me with tips on where else to visit, which I did the following day with a new-found confidence in my photography. Thanks to the tuition I feel that I am now in charge of the camera, rather than it in charge of what I take. I am now about to book further workshops to develop my skills further.

For various reasons (mainly involving work!) I had fallen out of love with photography. I just didn't have the time needed to feel happy with the outcomes. I am pleased to say that the Lake District course with David has successfully re-awakened my interest; I picked up plenty of tips, the most important being to take greater control of the process. David introduced me to some new techniques as well as helping me to brush up on the many others. If you, like me, feel you are in the photography doldrums, I can fully recommend David to sort you out. Equally, he clearly has the knowledge and experience to help you move forward with your photography, whatever your need.

Just returned from the Heather photography workshop in the Dales. This is the third one day workshop I've attended with David and I have to say that once again it was very enjoyable and informative. David has an excellent knowledge of the area, and always seems to have a good selection of locations available to suit the conditions and the particular interests of attendees. His passion and enthusiasm for both photography, and the Dales area are contagious. He has inspired me to return and explore on my own, and to learn to see the potential in my own local area. He sees opportunities that most would miss or not consider. I hope some of his enthusiasm and unique way of seeing the landscape will rub off on me. Thanks David. All the best and hope to see you again soon.

I would never have imagined that on a rainy, misty november day I could take photographs in hebden bridge and calderdale, of old mill buildings and waterfalls, that are, to my eyes, stunning! I would never have achieved this without the patient, dedicated and knowledgeable teaching, guidance and coaching that David gave through nine hours of cold, dull West Yorkshire weather. I'll certainly be back for another course.

I did the Northumberland workshop and would like to thank David for the effort he put in to make it work. He delivers essential information in a relaxed style in the field. He loaned me filters and a tripod head so I could learn new techniques and shared his time equally. A great course.
