Focus On... Mastering Manual: Take Full Creative Control - Leeds

Learn. Shoot. Connect.

Whether you're just starting out or looking to level up your skills, Focus On... events are designed to get you out of your head and into your photography.

From relaxed photowalks with playful challenges to hands-on workshops packed with tips, techniques and lightbulb moments — we blend real learning with real connection (and usually a coffee).

You’ll leave with fresh inspiration, practical skills, and new photo pals who actually get it.

What to Expect:

✅ Engaging photography learning led by an experienced tutor

✅ Creative exercises to help you practise, not just listen

✅ Friendly, inclusive atmosphere (no jargon, no judgement)

✅ Optional mini challenges to stretch your perspective

✅ A chance to connect, ask questions, and share your shots

Who’s it for?

Beginners, hobbyists, and those who’ve been winging it and want a confidence boost.

You don’t need fancy kit or technical know-how — just curiosity, a camera (or smartphone), and a willingness to give things a go.

Some events are women-only, some open to all — check the event details.

Psst — all events are free or discounted for Focus On... Circle members. Join our fantastically supportive online community for creative prompts, first access to events, and actual encouragement from actual people.
