The Art of Photography: Floral, Food & Still-Life – A Day of Creative Photography
Join us at the Welshot Creative Hub in Llandudno for an inspiring, hands-on photography experience where you’ll dive into the captivating worlds of floral, food, and still-life photography. Throughout the day, you’ll move between multiple carefully designed setups, each tailored to explore the unique aspects of these diverse genres. From the delicate beauty of freshly bloomed flowers to the vibrant textures of gourmet food and the artful simplicity of still-life compositions, each set will offer new opportunities to experiment with lighting, composition, and technique.
The Welshot team will be on hand to help, support and guide you through each setup, offering tips and insights that will help elevate your photography skills. You’ll learn how to use various techniques to enhance the visual appeal of your subjects, whether you’re photographing the intricate details of petals, the natural textures of food, or the elegant simplicity of everyday objects arranged in creative still-life scenes.
This immersive, full-day event is not only about capturing stunning images but also about igniting your creativity in a dynamic and supportive environment. With plenty of time to explore different setups, experiment with your camera settings, and get personalised feedback, this is an ideal opportunity for photographers of all levels to refine their skills and build their portfolios.
