Shore Cottage Studio: Learn Photography By The Sea

Look! Photos from six years ago, on the 5th August 2013 we began to build Shore Cottage Studio. We were being filmed for George Clarke's Amazing Spaces but we had to keep it a secret until it aired on Channel 4, so none of the pics we shared had film crew on. No mean feat considering they were everywhere! Why not visit our website www.ShoreCottageStudio.com and find your ideal creative course so you can come and check out how much we've changed over the six years?

If you are ready to move on to the next level with your photography then why not try our Mastering Manual Mode? Our 5* TripAdvisor rated technical photography course. Ideal follow up to our super popular 'Get OffAuto Mode' course.

If you've already had a 'creative composition' or 'take interesting photos' day here at Shore Cottage Studio then this is your next step! A full day course leaving with a framed montage. learn more and book your place at shorecottagestudio.com

Trip Advisor review from Helen M for our 'Take Interesting Photos' day...
"PERFECT DAY: Even the approach on foot to Shore Cottage was intriguing, then we emerged from woodland onto a beach with North Wales resplendent across the water. The welcome was warm and involved endless tea and home made biscuits. We three off-duty mums were relative novices to photography, with a selection of devices ranging from a proper digital camera to a mobile phone. Nevertheless, we produced e...xcellent results. Guided by Laura's unstuffy approach and simple advice we learnt to see things differently and search for images that no-one else has produced. Lunch was delicious with soup and homemade bread in big chunks to feed our creativity. All through the day the wonderful view from the picture window of the Shore Cottage Studio was evolving and changing as clouds and sun took turns to create new light on the scene. It was hard to leave, but we each came away with a framed print to remind us of a perfect day."

This is what Dawpool School's Spoonbills looked like at lunchtime today - halfway there. After a beach clean in the morning we concentrated on feathering our spoonbills with single use plastic - the school have been collecting clingfilm from their packed lunches for weeks. We'll share pics of the final piece early next week and then they'll be off for an exhibition to the Williamson in Birkenhead for the whole of the summer holidays.
