Despite the fast progression of technology, black and white photography is still a very popular style, and many photographers desire to master the art of this medium. Simple and beautiful, black and white images often have more impact than colour images and require a different style of photography.

With our Black and White Photography Courses, you will discover the intensity and nuance of black and white photography. Focusing solely on light and shape, you will learn how to take your monochrome pictures to the next level. Our policy of teaching in small groups means you’ll receive individual attention to get the most out of this one day workshop.

YOU WILL NEED

A mirrorless camera, a DSLR camera or a compact camera with full manual controls

This course requires a mirrorless camera, a DSLR camera or a compact camera with full manual controls. If you do not have access to a camera, we can provide you with one. We will also provide all other necessary props and accessories.

We also recommend you bring the following equipment with you to the course:

• Your camera’s manual
• Fully charged battery
• An empty memory card
• Comfortable shoes
• External flash (for some classes, if owned)

You’ll also need a basic knowledge of aperture, camera lenses, shutter speed and ISO including exposure modes. If you’re a photography novice, then you may find it helpful to sign up to one of our Beginner Courses first.
