Paul,
Many thanks for the course yesterday it was both informative and fun. I would highly recommend this course to both people who are just starting out with an SLR and those who have had one for sometime but are frustrated by the lack of consistancy of their photos (I was definetly in this category).
Paul is very down to earth and explains all terminology in no nonsense plain english, I can image some photographers like to show off and show how much they know by blinding their students with terminology.
I will definately be booking the follow on course and am already looking forward to my next installment of photography with you.

Dear Paul,
Thanks so much for all the help, advice and guidance you gave me over the 3 lesson course. I started with no idea how to hold a camera, and now i can use it wirh confidence. The written notes you provide make learning fun and easy to understand.
I have exhibited 2 of my prints in exhibitions, one winning a bronze award. Now i'm so excited every time i take my cameras out of the bag.
My granddaughter is to wed later this year so i think i might pluck up the confidence to have a dabble with a spot of wedding photography too.
