Andrew Jackson Photography: Workshops

Our next workshop takes place on Sunday, 22 May at the very lovely Rectory Hotel near Tetbury. Perhaps you have a wedding, a big family gathering or the holiday of a lifetime on the horizon; maybe you’ve just treated yourself to a fancy new camera and would like to know how to get the best from it...in which case, we would love to see you at this very informal, fun workshop.

Places are £85 PP (which includes lunch) and there are a few spaces left. There are a maximum of ten places available, with four remaining, so if you would like to come along please call Andrew on (01761) 452084 to ask any questions and to book your place.

Today I have been mostly excited about Shelley & Matt's wedding next year - I'm really looking forward to sharing the day with you both!

The Rectory Hotel, Crudwell: Congratulations!

The Rectory Hotel in The Cotswolds is one of my favourite venues, so it was especially pleasing to see it highlighted in The Times newspaper on Saturday in the "Cool Hotel" guide. The article starts "Sometimes a hotel just gets it right - and you can tell almost from the moment that you walk in. The Rectory is one of those places...". It is so true. I've been recommended there for my wedding photography for a while now but we also run photo workshops there and in June, I'm hosting a dinner for some of my favourite fellow photographers. So I know The Rectory really well and not at all surprised to see a score of 9.5 for service. A good venue only becomes a great venue if the team are committed and passionate about what they are doing - the Rectory have a great team and it shows. So congratulations Jenna - you deserve the good press!

Today I have been mostly enjoying a family gathering - lovely to have the time to stop the world and catch up for five minutes!

New Workshop Dates Announced

I am just putting the finishing touches to the next workshops, both to be hosted by the very lovely Rectory Hotel near Tetbury. Two workshops this time - an absolute beginners course, which is really for people you want to take a good snap, but have no interest in the techie side of things. The second is more advanced, with a starting point of taking the camera off the auto settings and taking control. We'll have a model and maybe some studio lights to play with, so you'll need to be a little more confident with your camera. If you might be interested, do call me - all the contact details can be found on the www.andrewjacksonphotography.co.uk website - and I can talk through which workshop might suit you best. All the previous workshops have been great fun and very supportive, so no need to hide at the back of the room if you are not sure about things - its a great opportunity to ask daft questions! The workshops are likely to be towards the end of September but let me know as soon as possible if you might be interested and I can keep you up to date.

Oh, and the fish picture has nothing to do with workshops - it just caught my eye as I was looking through some old images!

Workshop at The Rectory

Just back from another workshop at The Rectory Hotel, Crudwell. Just wanted to say a big thank you to Leah, our model (above) who was just brilliant and thanks to everyone for joining in! It always feels a long day, as there is always more to cover in the workshop than we have time for, but over all a great day. Watch this space for news of the next workshop, planned for September.
