Drone Photography Workshops run in conjunction with leading industry manufacturer DJI
I found the course very helpful. It was just what I was looking for as an introduction to the concepts of drone photography. I think Chris Gorman is an excellent tutor – he explained things well without talking down to participants like me who came to the course knowing relatively little about the subject. I very much appreciated the hints and tips Chris provided.
Spent 4 hours with Chris and learnt so much! Flying all sorts of the latest drones from DJI and talking lots about photography and how to step up your ‘drone game.
Chris arranged a workshop for me to advance my drone photography. He is a brilliant teacher, and really knows his stuff. The course was everything I wanted, he answered all my questions and went above and beyond to make sure the session was worthwhile. I feel a lot more confident with the drone now and Chris has also shown me where I could take the drone photography by sharing his inspiring portfolio and cutting edge equipment. Thanks Chris.
