What the course is about

We offer a  short introductory photography course called Explore Photography Using a Phone or Camera.

Learners should take this course first.

This more detailed Digital Photography course is the next step.

Join our Digital Photography – Gateway Level 1 Award in Progression, a beginner-friendly course designed to help you develop practical skills in a supportive and welcoming environment.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to take clear, well-composed photos
  • Understanding light, focus, and exposure
  • Using your camera or smartphone effectively
  • Basic editing skills to improve your images
  • Building confidence in your photography

Previous learners have gone onto great success in starting their own photography businesses. A good example is "By Sophie photography" (a quick Google search will take you to this).
