Live online personal tuition and coaching for all types of photography including Lightroom, smartphone and creative vision for all levels of photographer.

Do you need some guidance to make the most of your creative vision?

Sometimes artists experience a mental block. At other times they need a little help to shape a project or to set a new direction for their work. On occasion they just need someone to be accountable to and make sure that they progress.

If that sounds like you, my mentoring can help!

We work together online in a relaxed atmosphere. I’ll help you understand and refine what you want to achieve during or time together. We will set out a pathway to agree how you are going to get there. At the end of each call we will set action points to make sure you progress. You also receive a recording of the session.

Here are some of the things that I help with:

· Inspiration and ideas

· Shaping and progressing projects

· Developing style and vision

· Smartphone photography and editing apps

· Lightroom editing and visualisation

We can work together for as long as you need. You may need a simple piece of help or direction and we’ll cover that in a one-hour session. Or we may agree to work on a new direction or a project together over a number of months.

If you have any questions or want to work out if I am the best person to help you then please contact me.

About Matt Parker

The details

Mentoring is delivered online by Zoom at a time to suit both of us. You receive a recording of our time together so you can review what we have covered after our time together. All my sessions are one hour, but you can book a longer session in 60-minute multiples.

Testimonials

The one-to-one concept is invaluable being able to ask questions and for clarification when the topic is new. It is much more engaging than learning alone from a YouTube video etc. Matt has great knowledge and very willing to help me meet my goals.

More Testimonials

I gained a much better understanding of photography and I really enjoyed the idea of storytelling. I haven’t ever really engaged with photographs in this way before – seeing them more as just snaps – so literally my eyes have been opened! You are very good teacher and dealt with all my questions very patiently!

Valerie J

I really liked your themes and exercises on the photo locations. It gave me a starting point but also helped seeing my environment with different eyes hunting around for some good shots. I learned a lot in a short time and didn't realise how quickly it went. I'm already using what I learnt and it has become second nature.

The relaxed atmosphere really helped in not feeling like a photography newbie and knowing that anyone can take great photos without having to know all the ins and outs of photography. It's a great introduction to taking proper photos with your smart phone.

Thank you, Matt, for an enjoyable and interesting day.

It was well planned out and in a small group, it was easy to learn. You were very open to questions and adapting to the skill and interests of everyone on the course.

"I loved this workshop. Matt is a brilliant, inspiring and patient teacher. I’m one of those who gets frustrated that struggled to take the pictures I can see in my mind. Matt talked us through some key tools and approaches to help and when putting these into practice, he provided guidance, pointers and encouragement. Over the course of just one morning, I was able to see definite improvements in how I take photographs which made me very happy. The afternoon was my first attempt at editing photographs and it was so much fun! Matt explained the various options to give us some confidence and then encouraged us to play, offering opinions when useful. The range of pictures we created as a group was lovely to see. Matt answered lots of questions from us all and clearly knows his subject and really loves to share it with others. I came away with a lot of ideas and renewed energy around taking photographs and knowing how to practise the tools to create some really interesting images – lots of playtime ahead! Thanks Matt – I will definitely be back for more."

I was lucky enough to attend a workshop with Matt and learned so much. Matt is an excellent tutor and presented the information in a clear and accessible way. He encouraged us to use our mobile phone cameras to take pictures that went deeper than the usual quick snaps. I took a photo that I really love which I had printed and have hung on the wall at home. I highly recommend this training if you want to explore better mobile phone photography.

Elaine S

For someone whose main ideas of photos previously had been a recorder of family events, the course was an eye opener.

The main attraction, however, is Matt's experience and ability to put this across. Matt has an excellent portfolio to illustrate his ideas and is a clear communicator in getting this across.

Very highly recommended.

Richard D

Matt’s photography training simplified the photography process. He inspired me to be much more creative, seeing photographic possibilities in a whole range of subjects. I’d really recommend one of his workshops.
