Photography - Camera Essentials - Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO

Modern cameras do an amazing job, but they’re still just a machine, and they don’t think or see the way you do. Learn how to take control of your camera to get the creative outcome you desire, instead of letting a machine make all the decisions for you.

Learn about depth of field and stopping or showing movement as well as adjusting exposure for creative effect. Figure out when to use P, Av. Tv (or S) or go full Manual. And find out how ISO fits into all of that, as well as much more.

This course runs for 4 weeks with practical exercises to reinforce what you learn.

Currently on offer at Prahran Place.
Wednesday nights 6pm - 8pm. 8th to 29th October 2025 (4 weeks)

Photo Walk - Fitzroy PhotographyScavenger Hunt

A Photo Walk with Deb is a great way to explore a new location, (or rediscover your own suburb), meet some new people, challenge yourself creatively and get some exercise too. There’s no pressure, it’s fun, not hard work! Put the phone down and stop doom scrolling, dust off the camera (and charge your batteries!) and meet us for a fun and creative Sunday morning walk in Fitzroy.

With 30 years’ experience as a professional photographer and over a decade teaching at RMIT, Deb brings both deep knowledge and a down-to-earth approach to photography. On a photo walk/scavenger hunt with Deb, you can expect:

  • Fresh Eyes – guidance on how to see the world differently, noticing details, light, and perspectives that might otherwise be overlooked.

  • Practical Tips – hands-on support with camera settings, composition, and techniques, explained in a clear and approachable way.

  • Creative Confidence – encouragement to experiment and trust your instincts, building skills while keeping photography fun.

  • Personalised Feedback – gentle, constructive advice tailored to each participant’s level and style.

  • Community Connection – a welcoming environment where participants share ideas, inspire one another, and celebrate creativity together.

Deb’s teaching style is patient, engaging, and empowering—ideal for beginners finding their feet as well as enthusiasts wanting to spark fresh inspiration.

Photography - Light, Design and Composition: Master the art of Seeing

Great photography starts with learning to see. This 4 week course focuses on the creative heart of photography – how to work with light, design and composition to create compelling and visually appealing images.  

Explore natural and artificial light, understand how composition guides the viewer’s eye, and learn how design elements can strengthen the impact of your photos. Through guided exercises, discussion, and image reviews, you’ll build confidence in making intentional, well-composed photographs that tell a story or evoke a mood.

For those who want to improve and refine their creative vision.

A basic understanding of camera settings is an advantage, but not essential.
If you’ve already got a good eye but you’re a bit technically challenged, you could look into my Camera Essentials course. Then again, maybe it would help you to know why or what is making your photos look good.

Currently on offer at Prahran Place.
Wednesday nights 6pm - 8pm. 5th to 26th November 2025 (4 weeks)
Bookings opening soon.
