Loch Lomond Camera Training Courses
Is your camera set to 'Auto'? Do you wish you knew how to take control of it? Would you like some help and inspiration to improve your photography? If you answered yes to those questions and want a simple and easy way to learn how to take better photographs, we can help with a Photography Training Course by See Loch Lomond's Paul Saunders.
Paul Saunders is a professional wedding, commercial and portrait photographer. Nearly ten years ago, by popular request, he created this photography training course to help people understand how to take control of their camera.
The course consists of a 2.5-hour walk through Loch Lomond for up to 8 people. During that time, you will get 1 to 1 and group training, learn how to take control of your camera, and select the correct settings for different scenes. Throughout the course, you will also get the chance to take some photographs of the stunning Loch Lomond scenery.

Testimonial
“I recently had a photography course with Paul and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their skills, from beginner to more advanced. Being able to ask questions while taking the pictures, learning why one works and other ones didn’t and getting advice on how to best frame shots has made me more comfortable with my camera. He even had me shooting in manual mode, which I never thought I would do.”
