Having recently returned from the Yoga and Photography weekend I would like to say how much I enjoyed it!
Jane is a great teacher, who is very patient and knowledgeable. The whole weekend was very relaxed but at the same time I have come away having learned so much. We covered lots of different… Read more “Yoga & Photography weekend”

  The Ethical Christmas Table Styling and Food Photography Workshop was an amazing day packed full of learning, fun and festive cheer. We were welcomed on arrival by Jane Burkinshaw, Karen Barlow and Nikki Hill and had the opportunity to introduce ourselves to each other. Nikki was the hostess with the mostess welcoming us into… Read more “Fabulous, Festive, Fun Filled Day”

I have attended 4 workshops with Jane and had a course of one to one sessions to improve my photography. During this time I have gone from ‘ all the gear and no idea’ to someone who now shoots in manual, getting the shots that I want. I would probably describe Jane as the ‘Fisher… Read more “One to One photography lessons with Love Your Lens”

Loved Jane’s Love Your Lens phone workshop!
Jane is very friendly & welcoming – also an amazing photographer.
I never felt uncomfortable or that I couldn’t ask anything, and Jane’s resource guide is excellent. I feel more confident about editing as well as photographing things now.
Lovely coffees, teas & tempting snacks… Read more “Phone photography”

AMAZING food photography workshop, don’t even hesitate to get booked on. I guarantee you will love every minute and come away with serious knowledge and skill thanks to these two lovely ladies. I had a fantastic day and learnt an enormous amount, enough to create fantastic images in a matter of hours!  

Had a fab afternoon with Jane in Chester getting to grips with street photography. We all started off feeling a bit self-conscious, but her friendly encouraging style soon got us into the flow. Her advice re settings and guidance in spotting a good image were really helpful. In addition, she encouraged us to shoot only… Read more “One to one practical lesson”

My teenage son recently attended Jane’s “Photography for Teens” course. He found it really informative…learning lots about how to use his camera to get the most out of it. He commented on how friendly Jane was too 🙂 Highly recommended if you have a budding David Bailey out there

Had a fantastic beginners photography lesson with Jane, she really did make the lesson fun, interesting and the information easy to absorb! After only 2 hours I’m already off auto mode and taking much better photographs, I can’t wait for my next lesson.

A thoroughly enjoyable and informative day spent on the Get Off Auto workshop with Jane. Some great new skills gained for using my camera to its maximum potential with confidence. Looking forward to putting them in to practice. Thank you Jane. Would definitely recommend your courses and no doubt I’ll be back to try a… Read more “Get Off Auto”

I attended the ‘get off auto’ course on Saturday. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole session. Jane really is a great tutor and pitched everything in the right tone and the right pace. I will be going to more of Jane’s courses and would recommend this course to anyone who has a good camera but just… Read more “Get Off Auto”

I recently attended a product photography course with Jane and would highly recommend it. I’m a total novice and Jane did a great job of demystifying it all, so I came away with a better understanding, feeling so much more confident about my shots. I particularly liked the focus on natural light – after the… Read more “Product photography lesson”

I learnt so much from Jane’s Food Photography for Beginners. Jane’s teaching style is very encouraging and the day was a great mix of technical know-how, food styling and hands on practise…  all set in the beautiful, spacious and photogenic backdrop of Nikki’s home. We even got to share the delicious pumpkin dahl for lunch… Read more “Food photography course”

Excellent teacher; provides the simple explanations without dumbing down, all questions thoroughly and thoughtfully answered, a mine of information and damn good company to boot – whats’s not to like?

Thank you, Jane Burkinshaw! You’ve taken me from having an expensive bit of kit in my hands, not knowing who is controlling who, wary of going off auto and taking terrible shots, to knowing a lot more about my kit and to taking shots that I’m now pleased to admit that they are mine. You’re a… Read more “One to one tuition”

Recently spent an afternoon in Chester with Jane on a workshop. There were 3 of us all with different levels of experience. Jane established which area each of us would like to improve and learn. She’s incredibly patient and a fabulous teacher. It was my first time shooting in manual and the direction and instruction… Read more “Group Lesson in Chester”
