Photography Workshops

What we do…

Our photography workshops are comprised of 8 hours of lessons over various timetable options.

All lessons are led by Paolo Loraso who has 35+ years experience in professional photography and his assistant, based in a fully working studio.

Our Unique workshops consist of mainly practical work, teaching you in small groups how to get the most out of your camera. Each week we build up your knowledge and techniques in the art of photography.

On completion of the beginners workshop we offer both intermediate and advanced courses and provide assistance in specialist areas of photography. Some of the courses we offer include Product/Commercial, Studio lighting and Portraiture among others. We also run a monthly group called ‘Photocafe Photography Group’ for people who have completed the workshops to get together and discuss anything photography related.
