Come along to our fortnightly photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.
Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers. We have a different photo theme each fortnight and the two hour sessions take place in different outdoor locations across Birmingham. Great opportunity to try something new with the guidance of a professional photographer, and come away with some new shots for your portfolio or album.




Join the Birmingham Photography Facebook Group here to share your photos after the session.

Very good. Lots of opportunity to shoot portraits. Very friendly and helpful instructor. Plenty of interesting models to work with and a good mix of natural and artificial lighting. Very nice studio space as well.

It was exactly what I expected :) The group size was just perfect. We had enough time to practice our skills and talk about techniques and our cameras. Whole meeting was very informative and run in a friendly atmosphere. I can recomend it to anyone seeking to gain some skills with a photography.

I had fun and learned things around storytelling and how the technical aspects of photography work together. I have a desire to do more which is always a good sign. It was confidence building and a safe space to make mistakes:)

Despite the awful weather it was a very enjoyable and educational event. Nice group of people and a nice number for the tutor to help and advise. Martin knew the location well and was very knowledgeable and helpful with ideas for getting the best images with the weather conditions on the day.

It was a good size group - I think 4 to one teacher is a good ratio. Martin was really helpful and provided general tips as well as helping improve the shots I was taking. I would definitely book again. I thought it was good value for money.

This was my first time of attending one of the group sessions and I thoroughly enjoyed my time. I have been self taught through reading and watching videos, but to have the benefit of asking a very knowledgeable instructor I feel I have learned more. I'll definitely be attending further sessions.
