John Carroll reviewed: Landscape Photography Lessons for Beginners

"The first session I had with Frank would have been difficult to follow. However this, the second session surpassed any expectations. Frank has a way of making the difficult to understand, seem so easy. His patience and his step by step approach to instruction makes sure that you are sure to finish the sessions a far more informed and competent person than you started. An added bonus ………….. what a nice fella. John from Annan."

Frank Clarke responded:

"Thanks John, it was great to have your company and picking up where we left off. Keep shooting and see you in Scotland this summer to photograph some of your amazing wildlife and scenery. "

"This review is on behalf of my wife who joined Frank for a ' Training /Mentoring' session. The minute you meet Frank he filled my wife with a quiet confidence and one felt there would be no silly questions she could ask. She wanted to learn at least one thing from the session but came away with an increased confidence and having learned so many facets of photography. Frank immediately put her at ease and encouraged and supported as she began to take photographs in a variety of settings. Starting with scenic shots and then on to wildlife photography, the opportunity to ask questions and refresh her knowledge was excellent. Back to the Bridge Inn for some light refreshment and a look back on the shots taken was an excellent evaluation of the day's events. Frank continued to introduce new ideas and web sites to search where photographs taken can be analysed and changed to enhance the picture quality and if appropriate from colour to black and white. Frank reiterated her learning had only just begun and to go forth and practice while wishing her to keep in touch and share her experiences . 5 * from Mags and sincere thanks from me. One could not wish for a better tutor whom I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn from scratch to those with limited knowledge of photography . This tutor is first class."

Frank Clarke responded:

"thanks John! Was a great day teaching Mags and meeting you both."

"5 Star!!!! An absolutely fantastic course. It was like a light went on in my photographer brain. Frank was so knowledgeable and made it so easy for me (with my 'daft laddie' brain) to understand. Friendly and nothing was too much bother for Frank to explain. I will definitely be booking more tuition in the future."

Frank Clarke responded:

"Thanks John!! You picked it up really quickly! Im looking forward to taking you to the next level!"

Gary reviewed: Photography Lessons for Beginners

"A thoroughly enjoyable and instructive session in what has to be one of the most stunning locations in the Lakes. Frank was very easy to get along with and he pitched his explanations and guidance just right, encouraging throughout. I definitely came away with a greater understanding and enthusiasm to build on what Frank shared with me. I recommend this course to all those looking to improve their photography skills."

Frank Clarke responded:

"Hi Gary It was great spending time with you and Alison. Thoroughly enjoyed teach you and if your ever in the area again it would be great to catch up! Many thanks for the glowing review, means a lot!"

Jade reviewed: Landscape Photography Lessons for Beginners

"Frank is one of the most knowledgable yet down to earth photographers I’ve ever met. He found us a great spot to photograph, and I learnt so much in one session and even managed to start taking some great shots! Frank is truly a great photographer and an even better person and I can’t wait to continue learning from him in the future."

Frank Clarke responded:

"Thanks so very much Jade!! Can’t wait to take your photography further. Star pupil ?‍? "

Des Barr-Davies reviewed: Landscape Photography Lessons for Beginners

"An excellent course for the photographer at any level. Although, the course notes state Intermediate/Advanced level, don't let that put you off as a beginner. Frank has an excellent teaching style, that is relaxed and tailored to the skill of the individual. I felt that the main importance of my time on the course was to have fun and take photographs, all the time learning through practice and example rather than being full of technical terms. Don't get me wrong, if you want techy terms he has techy terms. I learned more in the time spent on the course, than reading the various photography magazines. The weather didn't allow for night shooting, but the relevant techniques were taught using a 10 stop filter (see I learned something). I would recommend this course, and try and stay at the pub, you'll not regret it."

Frank Clarke responded:

"Thank you so much Des for your great review!! Very pleased you enjoyed the course and you felt you benefited from my teachings. Hope you stay in touch and fingers crossed we get a clear sky for some night shots."

"Frank has an air about him that immediately puts you at ease. His knowledge of the subject and locations are excellent and his ability to adapt to the prevailing conditions was impressive - considering we had all the elements that could be thrown at us over the weekend workshop (and despite the weather preventing any night photography) I thorough enjoyed the experience, including the wonderful accommodation and food - I will be back!"

pavani reviewed: Photography Lessons for Beginners

"Beautiful location and the course was good. I have learnt new techniques regarding landscape photography. Frank is a amazing teacher, teaches in practical relaxing way rather than sticking on more theoretical way. I feel like I walked away with great images and an even better knowledge of landscape photography. It was really a wonderful opportunity to learn and broaden my skills with his help and guidance. The editing techniques on Mac are so cooI. I really did not find any negatives. I only wished if the workshop is for long i.e few more days."

Frank Clarke responded:

"thank you so much Pavani for your amazing review! Im so glad you like it and the work you produced over a very short period of time was truly amazing!!"
