Now that the galleries are opening up again, you may have found yourself enjoying the serene peace of one of the quieter rooms, suddenly struck by the chilling beauty of one of the prints. Or perhaps you have been scrolling through online picture essays, intrigued by the urgent stories the images are telling, the way the subjects have been positioned to portray a narrative.

In this interactive masterclass with Anthony Epes, you will reconnect with your creativity, discovering a well of confidence within you to capture beautiful photographs with intention.
Presenting an inside look at how to use your camera artistically, Anthony’s workshop will cover the fundamentals of what it means to be the observer, from building a relationship between the different elements of your subjects, to the importance of remaining present. He will also guide you through the practical elements of photography, including selecting exposure combinations and mastering your camera - whatever its model.
