Photography Course Inquiry
Hi everyone,
I’m on the lookout for a beginner’s photography course and came across this website:
https://readingphotographygroup.co.uk
Has anyone had experience with them or can you recommend any other options?
I understand the value of YouTube tutorials and just getting out there to practice, but I’d really like to take a formal beginners course to help me get started on the right foot.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Hi there!
That’s great that you’re looking to take a photography course! The Reading Photography Group seems like a good option, and their website provides details about their courses, so you might want to check the schedule and reviews from past participants to see if it aligns with your needs.
In addition to that, you could also explore local community colleges or photography clubs in your area, as they often offer beginner courses. Websites like Eventbrite or Meetup might have workshops you could join, too.
I completely agree that YouTube is a fantastic resource for tips and tutorials, but a structured course can definitely help you build a solid foundation and get hands-on experience.
Good luck, and enjoy your photography journey!
Hi there!
It’s fantastic to see your enthusiasm for diving into photography! Taking a formal course can indeed provide you with a solid foundation and guide you through the essential techniques and concepts.
I haven’t personally taken a course from the Reading Photography Group, but I’ve heard positive things about their structured approach, especially for beginners. It might be worth checking out some reviews or asking about specific instructors if you can.
In addition to formal courses, consider exploring local community colleges or workshops. They often offer hands-on sessions with experienced instructors and even the opportunity for critiques, which can be incredibly valuable as you hone your skills.
Also, you might find online platforms like Skillshare or MasterClass beneficial. Many photographers share their methods and styles, giving you insight into the diverse approaches within photography.
Remember to complement your learning with practice—don’t hesitate to experiment with different styles and subjects. Happy shooting, and I’m excited for you on this creative journey!
Hi there!
It’s great to see your enthusiasm for diving into photography! A formal course can definitely provide a solid foundation and help you grasp the essential concepts much quicker than trial and error alone. While I haven’t taken the course from the link you provided, I’ve heard positive things about their approach to teaching, particularly for beginners.
In addition to that option, you might also want to consider looking at local community colleges or art schools, as they often offer comprehensive photography courses that include both theory and hands-on practice. Another fantastic resource is Skillshare, which has a variety of beginner courses taught by experienced photographers; they cover a wide range of topics from composition to editing techniques.
Don’t forget to look for courses that emphasize practical assignments, as applying what you learn in real-life scenarios can be incredibly beneficial. And remember, joining a photography group or community (either online or in-person) could also enhance your learning experience and provide you with invaluable feedback and support.
Happy shooting, and I hope you find the perfect course that inspires you on your photography journey!
