Architectural Photography in Manchester – WelshotRewards Day

Architectural Photography in Manchester – A WelshotRewards Day

Architectural Photography in Manchester – it’s a Photographers dream. Commonly known as England’s second city and once a powerhouse of industry it is now famous for its extensive libraries and buildings. With the juxtaposition of old and new, Manchester is the perfect City to visit with your camera, so, charge those batteries and come join us for an Afternoon of photography. This is your chance to learn your camera, capture some great images and meet with like-minded people who just love to take photographs.

In this Weeks Two Minute Tuesday video, Welshot’s very own BossTog takes you through the differences of a Messenger Bag and a Backpack and how each have their own merits for the the photographers kit.

What could be better than walking the walls of Chester City with your camera. If you have missed getting out and about with your camera and enjoying the company of those who have a passion for photography then this is the event for you. Meeting at the historical cross on Watergate Street, Chester the Welshot Team lead a small group of photographers in this Welshot Mini Module – complete with a masterclass in architectural photography & how to shoot for HDR (High Dynamic Range).

Preparation for Shooting with a Model – A Model’s Perspective In our fourth video from the Welshot Does… “A Model’s Perspective” series of videos Rachel explains how with a bit of planning and preparation, you can make the most of your photoshoot with a Model.

If there is something Welshot does well it is variety, and the two days just spent in aforementioned dark room couldn’t have been more different. I am an amateur with no impetus to go professional but if the opportunity arose to make a few coins to cover my GAS (gear acquisition syndrome) then I wouldn’t say no. So the chance to spend a day with one of the few names I know in the photography world was too good to miss.

After 6 months membership of Welshot I decided it was time to arrange my 1:1 session with Eifion.  I have recently changed my camera and have had a couple of months getting to know some of its features but have still lots to learn and find most instruction manuals difficult to digest and put into practice.

I am now in my second year as a member of Welshot, a unique photography academy that I sampled a few times before joining so I have experience of them dating back a few years. I joined because I wanted to broaden my photographic horizons beyond the landscapes and architecture I naturally lean to. I’ve now done studio work with models and still life setups, an overnight landscape shoot and today I photographed dancers in and around Llandudno in North Wales.
