Landscape photography training

This course is aimed at everyone with a keen interest in landscape photography and needs help to take their landscape photography skills to the next level. Whether you’re an absolute beginner who would like to gain a greater understanding of your camera, or an experienced enthusiast who would like to look at more advanced techniques, a landscape workshop can be tailored to you. Subjects we could cover include all aspects of landscape photography such as exposure, focusing, depth-of-field, composition, how filters can enhance your shots and HDR photography.

Photography workshops can take place in Cambridge, or at a location of your choice. This could be near your home or a location such as the Peak District, Yorkshire Dales, North Wales, Norfolk, or Suffolk. Please note that for locations For workshops in North Norfolk and the Peak District travel costs are not applicable, but for other locations reasonable travel costs will be added. The workshop will be tailored specifically to your needs and interests to make sure you get the most out of the session.

How much does a landscape workshop cost?

There are two options available:

£249 (5 hours)
£299 (full day 8 hours)

The prices above are for one person. Please add £99 for each additional person up to a maximum of three (including the main participant). By keeping group sizes small, I’m able to spend more time with each person, and the overall cost for individuals is significantly lower. For workshops in North Norfolk and the Peak District, travel costs are not applicable. For other locations, reasonable travel costs will be added.

Wanting a short course in photography and photo editing, I contacted James Abbott, who responded with the offer of an 'In Person', days workshop course in SLR camera use and a days workshop course editing using Adobe Elements. Having now completed both, they were exactly what I wanted and I could not have asked for more. James is a very professional and competent photographer as well a patient tutor, and gave the appropriate amount of time explaining each aspect until I had the confidence to carry out the tasks myself. I now look forward to using and further developing these skills, both taking photographs and editing afterwards. I would highly recommend his services and photography workshops, Dave T

Spent the day doing a 5 hr workshop on street photography. AMAZING! James knows fantastic locations. He’s very patient and explains things clearly and in depth when needed. He adapted the day to my skill level and focused on my request for training in specific areas. I was very pleased with the shots taken and will book again in the future.

Last week, I attended a day long workshop with James Abbott Photography in the Peak District. It was informative, inspiring and above all good fun. I would highly recommend James to anyone, whether professional or amateur who is looking to sharpen their skills in landscape photography. He has expert technical knowledge but he imparts the information with such ease and clarity. Truly an excellent experience!

In June 2019 I did a Lightroom CC One to One home workshop with James. Although I had been using Lightroom for a couple of years he helped me so much to develop a much better workflow and with his help I learnt how to properly use the programme. I had developed a lot of bad habits! His knowledge is incredible not just on Lightroom but on photography he has a wealth of experience from his background in the industry. His instructions were alway clear and precise. He was enormously supportive in helping me learn to what for me is a difficult subject as a photographer I would rather just take the snaps but with James' help from the workshop my photography has improved as a result of his workshop and I enjoy the processing of my images much more.I learnt valuable skills that you cannot get from a book. Booking a workshop was also very easy, his email communications were good with him setting homework before the day. We also had a conversation about what I wanted to cover and achieve during my One to One. This led to me getting so much more from his time. I recommend to anyone a workshop with James' you will not regret it!

Highly recommend James Abbott Photography, I had the pleasure of meeting up with him for the day and to see him work his photography magic. He's someone that poses a great skillset and you can see that from his imagery as well as being a very approachable person, couldn't recommend him enough for all you photographic needs.
