Duration: 4 hours (plus a 30-minute pre-workshop assessment call)

This personalised, one-to-one bird photography workshop is designed for beginner to intermediate photographers who want to improve their skills and capture stunning images of wildlife in the beautiful surroundings of Sale Water Park, Greater Manchester.

Before your session, we’ll have a 30-minute pre-workshop call to discuss your current skill level, photography goals, and equipment. This ensures your workshop is tailored entirely to your needs, so you get the most out of your time.

There’ll be no overwhelming technical jargon. Instead, you’ll get clear, simple guidance on how to set up your camera, track birds in flight, and use natural light to your advantage. You’ll also learn how to troubleshoot settings and understand bird routines to anticipate the perfect shot.

Topics covered during the session may include:

• Setting up your camera for optimal exposure and focus

• Technical workflows to improve efficiency in the field

• Tracking birds in flight and capturing dynamic movement

• Understanding bird behaviour and routines

• Using natural light creatively for stunning results

• Troubleshooting common camera issues

By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with practical skills, a deeper understanding of your camera, and confidence in photographing birds in a range of scenarios.
