Our very first Tog-Talk podcast that is also available in video form.
Tog-Talk Episode 29
With this week's guest David Emery
In the very first Tog-Talk podcast to be shot in video, Kevin Ahronson interviews David Emery, a photographer he has known for four years.
David shares his journey into photography, which began with inspiration from his grandfather who had a cine camera and a 35mm camera. David got his first SLR, a Praktica, on his 14th birthday and started with film photography before transitioning into digital photography. Over the years, he used various cameras, including Canon's 350D DSLR and later the Canon 80D. He eventually adopted the mirrorless trend with the Canon EOS R.
David is a generalist photographer, not bound to a specific niche. He enjoys capturing moments and candid shots.
His technical knowledge on cameras has grown significantly over time, and he credits Kevin's masterclass for enhancing his understanding of the process of taking a photo.

Introduction To Photography (1-day Workshop)

Want something more?
Alternatively, If you want a course that raises the bar, something to immerse yourself in for a whole year, you'll want to join our Photography Masterclass. Run twice a year, with intakes during Spring and Autumn, it is our core workshop.
The Photography Masterclass (one-year course)
Students on the Photography Masterclass will build a solid foundation of technical and creative skills. They will learn not only how their cameras work and how to shoot with a creative eye, but there are modules on photographing people, working with flash, shooting landscapes, macro photography, as well as two modules on editing.
This is a ten-module photography course with photo-assignments between sessions. Each session lasts three hours and will include time to examine assignment images and take part in practicals (where appropriate). https://bit.ly/HSPmasterclass
