£40.00Low-Light & Long Exposure Photography at the Liverpool Christmas Markets – Mini Module with Masterclass
What Will Happen
Join the Welshot Team in Liverpool on what promises be a festive, fun filled, session of low-light and long exposure photography with a bit of street photography thrown in for good measure. This event will start the outside St Georges Hall (opposite Liverpool Lime Street Station) where we will spend some time wandering the Liverpool Christmas Markets, practising your street photography skills with the help of group and one to one tuition, support and guidance. Soaking up the atmosphere, and festive joy, as we make our way towards Liverpool’s Albert Dock which is where we will end the day making some low-light, long exposures of the Liverpool waterfront. Stopping for a mulled wine or hot chocolate will be a must of course.
The Masterclass will be about helping you to create long exposures in low-light conditions, specifically buildings but maybe some traffic trails too. We will also, if you need the inspiration or the motivation, provide you with a challenge to help you get your creativity flowing when it comes to street photography.
Whether you are a beginner to photography, a photographer who would like to try a new genre, learn a new technique or skill or a more advanced photographer who wants to build their image portfolio, you will be made welcome and we would love to help you get the best out of your camera.
The Welshot Team will be at hand throughout this session to assist and help you get the best from your camera, so you can leave at the end of this session with memory cards full of beautiful photographs and great memories.
Please Note: No food or drink is included in the cost of this event, and this is a fully outdoor event – please make sure you come dressed appropriately. If Welshot decides to postpone this event due to bad weather conditions you will be given a number of options regarding your booking.
Welshot will be keeping within Welsh Government regulations and recommendations regarding the Coronavirus and Covid 19 Regulations, and we expect our delegates to do the same
