Members Training Days

Members only

The Members Training Days have now been running since April 2010 and are getting rave reviews from the members who have attended so far.

The Members Training came about as a follow-on from our Mentor Me program. We wanted to be able to point members towards some skill training to aid their development as photographers.

So since April 2010, we have run courses on Wedding Lighting and Posing, Wedding Marketing, Post Production, Workflow, Commercial Photography, Event Photography, Photoshop, Lightroom, Aperture and RAW workflow.
