Barbican photography workshops
I have led affordable photo walks and workshops at the Barbican for a decade and in 2022 devised this self guided architecture photo walk with the Barbican for its membership programme.
The current one day workshops will help you to discover the urban realm of high walks, gardens as you photograph around London’s famous Brutalist Barbican estate. Learn about the design of the Barbican and how to photograph the architecture, details and textures as well as abstract compositions using reflections and shadows.
If you would like to understand more about black and white settings, the workshop covers camera colour profiles and colour theory including monochrome and analogous colour schemes to create tonally simplified but effective images.See some of my black and white photos here.
Interested in night photography? A shorter winter dusk workshop, concentrates on the Barbican lighting design so you can photograph stunning photos that show how illumination changes the look of the Estate.
