Come along to our photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.

Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers!

We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations in Rochester .

  • New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next on is!

  • Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

  • What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

    The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

    Join the Rochester Photography Group on Facebook to share your photos after the session.

    Was a good refresher for me. Location is kind of uncomfortable as you can get distracted by customers.

    This cardinal was difficult to get a photo of. Whenever I would get into position it would fly off. Just got lucky that day. Shot on my Nikon Z5 with 28-200mm lens at 200mm - f6.3 - 1/2000 - iso 1000.

    This is a excellent place for birdwatchers and stargazers alike, I personally like to take advantage of a nice clear night and lower light pollution of the area to capture Startrail and Milkyway shots.

    This was during the Lunar Eclipse and for once got lucky with the shot. I took tons of photos with different focal points. One thing I did was stack the images because when I would expose for the moon the light on the little light house would be too bright. So I did some photo stacking so that I could get a more balanced picture in the editing process. I was shocked that I was the only person there.

    I had some time to spare before taking some family photos. The colours of these flowers definitely stood out to me and I have always liked threes....

    I enjoy macro photography highlighting parts of everyday object wee usually overlook. In this picture, I noted the opening of the white rose petals to reveal the reds and oranges of the stamens and pistil against a golden glow formed from the light diffusing through the scene, like the opening of a painted paper fan.
