Cosplay Meets Photography – Chester Photographic Academy Evening

It's all about portraiture photography with a difference at this Welshot Photographic Academy Evening in Chester! If you want to learn about lighting and how to use it effectively for the different effects it can give you, then this is the session for you.  From using one light, two lights, then three, then four lights, you will learn how to "Build" your set, taking your photos as you go along and seeing the differing results that each stage gives you.  We will also be adding gels into the mix as well as modifiers.  If that's not enough, your model(s) will be Cosplayers - dressed in unique costumes which will provide you with vibrant fun characters to capture in your camera while learning/honing your portraiture skills.  We can promise you that you will leave this photography adventure with having learnt a thing or three and a memory card full of images that you will be proud to have in your portfolio.

It's back!  One of our most popular events with our Welshot Members - The Three Lighthouse Challenge on Anglesey - A WelshotRewards Day.  A very full day of fun, friendship and photography.  From sunrise at Penmon to sunset, at either the South Stack Lighthouse or Llanddwyn Island depending on conditions you are guaranteed to capture a wide variety of dramatic images.  From lighthouses to big skies, what more could the photographer want?  Our Three Lighthouse Challenge will see us circumnavigating the Isle of Anglesey in North Wales with our camera - getting creative with lens balls, long exposures and trying our hand at macro (clos-up) photography . Whether you are a beginner to photography, a seasoned enthusiast or someone who just likes being in the company of like-minded people, this day of photography will help YOU to get the best out of YOUR camera.
