You know that photo workshop I ran yesterday… well the guys that attended were not the only people that learnt something.
I learnt something too.
That I have learnt a lot about photography over the last few years, and I do actually have a skill I can teach someone.
You may think that’s a funny statement to make… but after reading and participating in so many online forums and camera clubs over the years… you do doubt some days whether you actually do know what you’re talking about.
I don’t think people realise how much their glib statements affect you… but eventually you doubt whether you know stuff.
And it turns out I do.
The only problem I had yesterday really, was navigating around Kerry’s Nikon… I need to play a bit with one because the menus are so vastly different to the Canon… but seriously, that’s all.
I can actually do this. And I think I’ve found a niche… I keep getting more requests for more workshops.
Onwards and upwards…

You should never doubt that you’re brilliant – everyone else knows.

I’d love to do a workshop, but I dont have kids or a camera (yet)
Maybe you can suggest a good ‘first timers’ camera?.
Ive got 4 gorgeous nephews that I take loads of photos of, but my ordinary digital camera can’t do anything fancy.
