About this Event

We will explore the fundamental building blocks of photography, including:

Day 1 - 8th February 2026 - 2pm to 5pm – Foundations of Photography

Theme: Seeing Light & Controlling the Camera

Introduction to light and its effects on mood and realism. Practical exploration of the exposure triangle (aperture, shutter speed, ISO) and basic composition principles like framing, balance, and the rule of thirds. Hands-on exercises in manual mode.

Day 2 - 15th February 2026 - 2pm to 5pm – Composition, Visual Storytelling & Lens Choice

Theme: Learning to See Like a Photographer

Focus on visual awareness, composition, and creative use of negative space, patterns, and symmetry. Introduction to lens choices and their impact on perspective and storytelling. Guided photo walks and themed assignments with group review.

Day 3 – 22nd February 2026 - 2pm to 5pm - Portraits, Motion & Creative Control

Theme: Capturing People and Movement

Techniques for portraits, lighting, posing, and communication. Motion photography, including freezing action, motion blur, and panning. Practical exercises followed by group critique on expression, timing, and technique.

Day 4 – 1st March 2026 - 2pm to 5pm - Editing, Style & Final Project

Theme: Developing Your Photographic Voice

Basics of photo editing: exposure, contrast, color correction, and composition. Exploration of personal style and visual consistency. Final photo series project with group critique and individual feedback.

This workshop is highly interactive – you’re encouraged to bring your own camera (DSLR, mirrorless, or advanced compact), a notepad to take notes, as well as your questions, and so you can learn how to use your equipment effectively. Our focus is not just on theory, but on practice: you’ll get to apply what you learn in real time, with expert guidance every step of the way.

Insights and techniques from our maestro, Antonino Pilade – founder of the Contemporary Reflection Art Studio, visual artist, filmmaker, and passionate photographer. Check his work at www.antoniopilade.com .

By the end of this modular series, you will have a solid understanding of your camera’s core settings, a sharper eye for composition, and the confidence to continue your photographic journey.

The module only costs £120. With this price you pay for all 4 days spread over the month. Unfortunately, we cannot adjust for purchases for 1 day of workshop and we encourage to pay the full price as each workshop leads to the other.
