Feedback from previous students

"I have attended a number of Jamie’s exciting photography courses where he teaches everything from the basics of taking great photos to advanced and professional photography and editing software techniques.

As photography instructor Jamie holds nothing back in his fun, informative courses, he patiently guides the participants through photography lessons and his experience in the photography and arts is exceptional.

Jamie’s courses are well worth the investment for nowhere else could you get such good help and support from a serious photographer.

I have improved both in my photography and in my confidence because of the help and support I have received from Jamie. I have been able to work on two media teams due to the skills I learned from his courses so I highly recommend his courses to anyone seeking to improve their skills a photographer."

"I would highly recommend attending one of Jamie's Photography courses, if you want to progress and challenge yourself to gain knowledge with your photography skills.

Jamie House, the course leader, has shown great knowledge and patience throughout the time I have attended courses with him. He is very good at getting the best out of you, encouraging you to work on elements of photography which would improve and develop your expertise.

Some of the elements and techniques covered in all the courses attended, gave an in depth look at composition, lighting, portraits, directing models, movements, textures, colours and the whole arrangement of the subject, challenging every part of your photography knowledge, whether a beginner or an advanced learner.
