About Mark
I have been practising and writing about photography for 25+ years, and am now based in the Cheltenham area, still travelling the country on assignments covering advertising, architectural and forensic work. I even do weddings. My websites involve equipment reviews, and I have built the internet's largest catalogue of 'alt.lenses' – inspiring creatives to use off-piste vintage lenses from enlargers, projectors and industrial machinery. I was inspired to offer private tuition by the process of filling gaps in two younger family members' college courses, which seemed to them a poor introduction to the exciting world of image-making, and to me a woefully inadequate preparation for real world photography.

Courses are available by Zoom, but it is preferable (at least sometimes) to work alongside students on field work and real-life assignments. You can come to me, or I can come to you. Students are free to define the length and objective of their lessons, but initial sessions aim to communicate the fundamentals of photographic technique. Academic modules are available to explore the history and social significance of photography and cinematography, as well as practical courses such as 'Event Photography', 'Post Production', 'Shooting People', 'Moving Images', and 'Equipment Choice'. I have worked with children of all ages, from 8-80, at all levels of experience, from absolute beginners to working pros. Photo trips are also organised for small groups.

mark is a knowledgeable tutor and experienced photographer he's taught me many things over the years for example one of the first things he taught me about was the three pillars of photography, iso, aperture and shutter speed he taught me what they do, how they work and the best way to use them to complement my photos depending on the subject this has helped my greatly in improving myself as a photographer, he's also taken my out on multiple occasions to his shoots and gave me some first hand experience in what it's like to be a freelance photographer. if you'd like to see some of my work you can find me at https://www.instagram.com/fo_toe_og_rafy/
Mark has many years of photography experience in diverse settings. He greatly helped me understand and improve my photographic technique by explaining the fundamental principles of photography and camera usage to a relative novice like me and did it in a clear and understandable way. I found his guidance invaluable and would not hesitate to recommend him as a tutor for all ages and abilities.

Details
The free introductory lesson is a half-hour 'getting to know you' Zoom session where you get the chance to tell me what you expect from tuition, and I get to see some of your photographs and assess your needs. On the basis of our chat – providing we get on! – I would plan a bespoke course for you, of whatever duration you'd prefer, and plan trips and events as necessary.
