Photo School Autumn Half Term

What a fabulous few days we've all had.  It's been non-stop extreme and experimental photography.  (that's experimental with the emphasis on mental!)

Here's just a fraction of what went on…



Keep an eye on our website and facebook page for details of upcoming courses for both kids and adults.

Wine time?

Making a splash!

Working hard to day with my Aussie helpers, Zac & Samara.
They are being patient as I try out the latest photoschool ideas on them.
Here are the experiments so far... with more to come!

Watery fun

We've had kids in the studio this week, trying out stuff with splashes and macro lenses.
It's been fun, we've called the squirts 'The Red Fairy' and the droplets 'Crowns'

Think you can do better? (we're sure you can!) Come along this half term, and play with colours it's like a science experiment as much as camera fun.

Here's some stuff to get your creative juices flowing.

Bullet-Time Fruit Drop

What to do with 9 kids, 9 cameras and some fruit…

Some photo school fun...

Days Two and Three

Well, we are all having a lot of fun, and just a few teaser photos to show, we can't show you all the groovy stuff until all the kids and parents have seen them on our showdown night.
So, some teasers from the last two days....

We girls slipped off to try out some photos to make your brain hurt.

 Elysia is our champion of holding the difficult pose.

 Well posed, Tori!

 Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the boys are a makin'

 Ooh, look - we went through a LOT of balloons... what were we up to? Keep an eye out for Saturday's post, after the students get first peek...

 Ah, this one is a big clue!

Week 1 Day 1

What a blast!  It started like Christmas morning - complete with suitable soundtrack - as we unpacked and set up our new cameras.  Then straight down to business with the exploration of time.  The afternoon was spent in darkened room painting with light.  That pretty much covers photography really — time and light.  What else could we possibly do for the rest of the week!?

Here's a selection of pics from our day… nothing too revealing because we want to keep the best shots secret until our Slideshow Showdown with family and friends on Friday evening.
