photography couses in london?

Question

can anyone recommend a good photography course in london for beginners?

Answer 1

Sure can! I'm going to do a beginners course at Central Saint Martins College (very good reputation for art and design) They run a beginner's course evenings and Saturdays. Check out their website: http://www.csm.arts.ac.uk/ go to 'Courses' then 'evening and weekend' and search for Photography.

Alternatively this link should take you straight to the Saturday course:
http://courses.csm.arts.ac.uk/shortcourse.asp?ct=1&ma=5&cat=43&ci=2364

It runs at different times (the next starts January 13th) lasts for five weeks and costs only £395.

Hope this helps!

You can be like the masses of humanity and buy a camera you can afford that has auto this and that for worry free picture taking. And learn through trial and error how to use something like aperture or shutter priority auto modes or even attempt to use the thing on full manual mode.
You seem to know already there is some thinking to using a camera and to take pictures. A good place to start is by reading the owners manual that comes with a camera. Read the information and look at the illustrations with part names and look at the real camera. Handle the camera and take pictures. Let me rephrase that. Take pictures to learn how to use the camera and maybe even to keep some. Don't start with important stuff you cannot photograph over again such as birthdays, a toddlers first steps. That puts picture taking out of the learning phase and puts the pressure and emphasis to taking pictures for real and to keep.
These first pictures are for you to learn how to use your camera. And you have learned how to use your camera when you can take pictures with it and can teach others how to use it. Honest. You can also go to a college in your area and take a beginning photography course. There you will be taught the basics even a pro must learn and do in their work. Camera handling and use, taking exposures with film and/or digital cameras, and maybe even some photo assignments to get some real time learning. In this learning do not take serious pictures you must keep as that detracts from the learning aspect of the class. Do so only if you have mastered the use of your camera before class is over.
It's like growing up in a way. And I am happy you know there is a way to learn how to use a camera and take pictures. It's like learning how to drive I suppose. Someone can teach you or you can get taught at a driving school. Both will get you a drivers liscense. One though will really teach you the fundamentals you can use for the rest of your driving career.

Answer 4

The Hotcourses website is a good place to look. I believe that the St Martin's college does photo courses, hotcourses were giving out a free paper in the tube stations the other day, I don't know if they will be doing that again soon.
