Nature Smartphone Photography Workshop

Discover how to capture stunning nature photography on your very own phone.

  • Booking essential

The workshop, led by professional photographer, Jane Burkinshaw, looks at how we can use our phones to capture fantastic images of nature by using our picturesque Quarry Bank scenery as the subject.

Tailored for families, teenagers and young adults, The workshop will give top tips on preparation, taking fantastic photos and editing. You’ll also have a chance to get out and about at Quarry Bank taking photos.

In wet weather, this workshop will take place inside instead of outside. This workshop is being run as part of our Great Big Green Week work with children and young people.

Jane Burkinshaw is a professional photographer turned tutor, with an all-consuming love for photography and a passion for helping others to love it too! She is a firm believer that photography doesn’t have to be all jargon and can teach you everything you need to know, in language that you’ll understand and with tricks to help you remember and use time and again. www.loveyourlens.co.uk
