Nov 18Quite often, experience overlooks and tramples ignorance especially when the window of opportunity is so small and the subject is so huge but I am glad Scott triumphantly overcomes that challenge with his overwhelming experience and humble personality to manage a group of novice beginners. His abiltiy to teach photography with an impeccable skill of getting in to only so much detail without creatiing any confusion is sheer brilliance. Scott balances theory and practicals effortlessly and that gives the students a sense of learning and accomplishment. I realy enjoyed my 4 weeks sesion, learnt a lot. I finished the course with heaps of confidence. Loved the conversations with Scott. Somnath
Nov 18To all and sundry budding and aspiring intersested persons in photography:
Do the course

Go for gold then do some more
I cannot recommend this course enough as a starting point to get your creative thoughts going. Do some more and reward yourselves with great beauty in your lives. Jake
Mar 18I was given this course as a gift from my son who lives in London. Chances are he chose the course becauseof its location in Manly, as I live on the northern beaches. As it turns out I would have traveled across Sydney to attend, it was that good!
Scott is a very experienced photographer and an excellent teacher. The lessons are fast paced and full attention is required to absorb the information being imparted, but the satisfaction of mastering the knowledge and technique is inspiring.
The 8 hours spread over 4 weeks is over before you know it and it was quite sad when it came to an end. However, this is the beginning of years of enjoyment in the wonderful world of photography.
Thanks Scott, it was great! Geoff
Mar 18A wealth of information to take in but I feel I am in a much better place to be able to start my new found hobby. Thank you for your patience. Richard
Nov 17I enjoyed the technical aspects of the course and am inspired to get out there and practice! John

Dec 15This is a great start to using your camera on manual and understanding the creative elements of photography. Anyone interested in taking creative photos will love this course. I want to thank Scott for making the course really enjoyable and interesting. Jane
Nov 15This was a thoroughly enjoyable course! Scott is a professional, extremely knowledgeable and a walking camera manual. He covered all the basic concepts in a fun, easy-to-understand way with - as the high point - the three-hour field trip in Sydney's The Rocks. Mark
Nov 14If you want to lift the lid on the mysteries of your DSLR and stop relying on automatic settings that never quite get the shot right, then this course is for you. It's excellent value (seven weeks AND a three-hour field trip) and you get to practice what you learn every week during the class. Scott is hugely experienced and very assured in his field, and you see almost instant outcomes and improvements from the first week. I felt liberated after the course and now look forward, with confidence, to picking up the camera and striving for the perfect shot. Five stars. Jamie

Mar 12I loved the seven-week photography course! I have learnt so much and my images have greatly improved. The course is a good mix of theory and time taking photos and the field trip was a real highlight! I'd highly recommend the course to anyone starting out with an SLR for the first time. Scott is a great teacher and I hope to be joining another of his course soon. Jo

Jul 11I thoroughly enjoyed the course. I came into the course wondering if I will ever veer from automatic and to my surprise, I now take photos with confidence on manual. Thank you for your patience in answering my 100 questions and teaching us to enjoy using our cameras, I definitely see my surroundings in a different light and get excited each time I take a photo now. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to get to know their cameras, its easier than I thought! Brigitte
Jun 11For a digital photography 'basics' course we certainly covered a considerable amount of information. For the first time in my life I feel confident enough to change the 'automatic' mode to 'manual' and give it a try! Thanks Scott, it's been great. Michelle
Jun 11Excellent course! If you want to do a beginners' photography course that gets you straight into the action, this is the course for you! Cheers Scott. Phil
Jun 11This course teaches you much more than the technical skills needed to operate your SLR - it teaches you to see potential images and art everywhere you go! Ben
Jun 11I would thoroughly recommend this course to anyone who owns a digital camera and wants to know how to get the most out of it. Scott runs the courses in a very informative but relaxed manner where you feel very at ease asking questions or asking him to go through something again until you fully understand. The mix between theory and practical is just right and the highlight for me was the field trip where the theory really came into practice and it all fell into place. I am very proud of the photos I took on the field trip and enjoy showing them off! Its great to finally understand how to get the most out of my camera and get some really great shots! Suzanne
May 10This course is great if you are interested in knowing more about your SLR and the basics of photography! Yolanda
