National Trust DSLR Photography Course One
DSLR beginner photography course at the Ashridge Estate National Trust

‘Learn to use your DSLR camera at National Trust Ashridge Estate’

Learning to use your DSLR camera and walking around the beautiful National Trust woodland of Ashridge Estate is a great combination. You don’t need any DSLR photography experience as you will learn the skills that will allow you to achieve the photos that you want to start taking. DSLR style or bridge cameras are suited to this day also but it is not for compact digital cameras.

The first part of the day will show you how to understand your DSLR and its functions. We will use plenty of practical exercises so that you can understand the aperture, shutter and ISO to help you achieve better photographs.

You will be photographing outdoor portraiture, some candid photography, wildlife and landscape. In the afternoon we will walk about 3 miles through Ashridge woodland giving you a chance to learn more about the woodland at Ashridge National Trust and practise your skills!
