Overview of Norwich Photowalk
This photo walk is aimed at photography beginners and enthusiasts, though those who want to test out the range of equipment or enjoy a day out with our photography community are more than welcome!
With a lot of freedom to work at your own pace, Carol will help you navigate your way around and help you produce great images. There is less focus on in-depth tuition and genre theory, however, you do have the opportunity to talk directly to Carol who will be able to answer your specific photography queries.
This photo walk will allow you to take in some of the most historic parts of Norwich including the bustling Norwich Market, the art deco beauty of The Royal Arcade, the Norman Norwich Cathedral and its cloisters, the Tudor cobbled lane of Elm Hill and the River Wensum.
Who will be joining you?
Carol Hartfree
Carol Hartfree has been obsessed with photography since her early 20s when she got her first SLR film camera. With a degree in photography and many years of working as a freelance photographer and trainer, Carol has gained a great deal of technical and creative knowledge.
Carol is known for her kind and gentle approach to her subject matter, with her work being described as ‘photography with a light touch’. This way of working extends to her teaching, helping photographers get the most out of their equipment and their creative vision, whatever their skill level or experience.
What will you learn
After an initial refresh on basic camera settings, Carol will move on to explain valuable exposure techniques — including exposure settings, composition, and how to manipulate the highlights and shadows.
These will include tips for street photography, black and white photography, composition, and how to anticipate a compelling story to freeze the moment in time.
As ever, light and exposure are crucial, so they will receive due time and attention as the day progresses. You’ll receive different photo briefs throughout the day to help you experiment with camera settings and photographic techniques.
