You know the old saying.... the best camera is the one you have with you. Well, that's certainly true, and having a better camera or other piece of photographic equipment won't turn you into a better photographer.
But it can make your life easier, and allow you to get shots that wouldn't be available to you otherwise (you try holding a camera steady for a five second exposure without a tripod!).
So, although our primary aim is to teach photographic skills, we do get asked a lot about the equipment we use.
So, in this section we'll list photographic gear that we have personally found to be useful.
It's not an exhaustive list as we've used so much kit over the last twenty years, and we're not sponsored by any specific brands.
You can be sure that if we mention a piece of equipment here, it's because we have experience of the brand and/or used a specific item and found it to be of benefit when creating images. As always, do your research, read reviews, and try to test kit yourself when possible.
Our trainers are all fully qualified members of both the Master Photographer's Association (MPA), and the British Institute of Professional Photography (BIPP). The MPA is the UK's only trade body for full time professional photographers whilst the BIPP exists to promote high quality training throughout professional photography. Membership of both these esteemed organisations offers reassurance to our clients that all training will be carried out to exacting professional standards.
