Evening Garden Photography

---

Join us for an enlightening one-day workshop concentrating on garden and flower photography, in the beautiful surroundings of RHS Garden Hyde Hall. With this session having a later start time you will be able to make the most of the evening lighting and get the golden hour shots you have always dreamed of!

Looking at composition, lighting, choice of subject and more, you will be guided to great results. The day will consist of a slideshow and discussion in the afternoon, followed by an evening of practical photography in the garden as the sun sets, which incorporates some 1-2-1 time with each participant in order to address any issues, concerns or subjects specific to them. Suitable for all types of camera, from compact to DSLR and for all abilities, including absolute beginners and upwards.

Tutor: Daniel Bridge is a professional photographer with over 22 years of experience teaching others. He has taught a whopping 460+ classes and seen over 3000 individual students with RHS Hyde Hall acting as one of his regular teaching spots!
