Edinburgh

Tour start from St Giles Cathedral or your hotel and last approx 3 hours
​This photo tour usually starts in Edinb8rgh Old Town but as it is a private tour this can be adjusted to suit your needs. It starts off by instructing you how to get the best out of your camera if you require this (and skipping it if you don't) and then the emphasis is on capturing stunning photographs of Edinburgh rather than the usual tourist snaps that most people will capture. You really get to see Edinburgh in a different way and with the help and advice of Will who has worked as press photographer, covered humanitarian crises in Iraq, shot covers and content for Lonely Planet guidebooks, covered Fashion week for many years but now concentrates on teaching from his vast skill set.
​If you prefer the tour to take place in the New Town, Dean Village etc we can do that too.
We want you to see the best of Edinburgh, hear some amazing stories about our city and leave with great photos regardless of your skill level before your tour or the equipment you use. We will teach you how to get the best out of your camera or smart phone, explain everything in easy to understand language and help you "see" how to get a great photo.​
* We welcome people of all levels and have catered for absolute beginners to professionals.
* As well as photography, you'll learn the background to the places we visit and the stories behind Edinburgh's colourful characters past and present.
* We'll recommend places to eat/drink and other things to do in town to avoid the usual tourist traps.
* We don't mind if you use a smart phone, compact camera or DSLR, we'll help you get amazing photos using anything.
*We keep it simple, understandable and in no time you'll be getting photos you love.
*Why choose us? We have a wealth of professional experience, our photography clients include Lonely Planet, getty images and we have been exhibited&nbsp; globally. We take our experience and break it down to keep it simple, effective and easy for you to pick up and develop your own style on our fun and friendly tour.
* We recommend bringing the camera you are most comfortable with, whether it is a DSLR or a smartphone.
* For cameras with manual settings, we recommend a wide-medium range zoom (24-105mm range) as being the most useful but anything wider (16-35mm) or longer (70-200mm) as well as prime lenses (50mm fixed lens for example) will also be used on the session.
* If you are using a smartphone we recommend you download the "Snapseed" app before the tour. It's free and it an amazing editing tool.
* Please make sure your batteries are fully charged and have spare batteries with you.
* Please make sure you have space on your memory card/device.

Do you have a growing mountain of negatives and/or prints and wish to have them as digital files? This course will equip you with the skills to digitally archive your collection ready for reprinting and sharing online!It can be intimidating to approach alone, but this class will break the process down into an easy step-by-step tutorial &ndash; from scanning, to editing, and exporting. Having completed the course, participants will have a solid understanding of the required processes and can go on to take full control of their negatives and potential outputs. This workshop will take you through the scanning process &ndash; turning analogue negatives/prints into digital files &ndash; using two different scanners: an Epson flatbed and a Hasselblad virtual drum scanner. Providing an opportunity to look at how best to scan and restore prints as well as negatives, you will learn the benefits of both scanning systems and understand when and why to use them.Once images are scanned, you will then be shown how to take full advantage of all the information you have captured to really get the most out of the files. The course will guide you through the editing process using Adobe Photoshop to bring your photos up to the highest standard, utilizing colour correction, levels, adjustments as well as a walkthrough of the processes used to clean dust and scratches from your images.&nbsp;You will be shown how to export files for digital printing as well as for sharing online.All equipment and software will be provided for you, but in order to get the most out of the course&nbsp;you are encouraged to bring along a varied selection of negatives and/or prints to use during the course. It is estimated that you will have time to scan up to a dozen images during the day, so please do not bring along whole archives at this stage!Having completed the course you will be able to return to Stills to confidently use the scanning facilities here on a session or daily basis. However, much of the information and learning from these systems can be directly applied to your own home scanning setup if required.&nbsp;<hr style="color: rgb(80, 80, 80); border-color: var(--border-muted); border-style: solid; clear: both; break-after: page; -webkit-user-select: none; box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(80, 80, 80);">Courses are subject to minimum enrolment.&nbsp;Please register early, within five days of the start date, to reduce the likelihood of course cancellation.Please read our cancellation policy before booking.Students, anyone over the age of 65, and those in receipt of any form of benefits can claim the concessionary price, offering a 10% discount on the full course price.
