Personalised One-to-One Photography Workshops

Master the Art of Noticing with Leigh Windridge

Photography is more than just settings and gear; it’s about how you see the world. Whether you are struggling to find subjects in "ordinary" locations or you want to master the technical craft of your camera, my 1-to-1 workshops are designed to help you bridge the gap between a snapshot and a story.

My Non-Orthodox Approach

I don’t believe in rigid rules or gate keeping. My approach to photography - from the moment I scout a location to the final edit - is built on The Art of Noticing.

I focus on the quiet details, the play of light, and the textures that others walk past. During our time together, I’ll show you how to strip away the "jargon" and focus on what actually matters: creating images that feel like you.

What we can focus on:

• The Creative Eye: Learning to find compelling compositions in any environment (Woodland, Landscape, or Wildlife).

• The Technical Build: Mastering manual settings, understanding light, and using filters (ND, Polarisers) effectively.

• The Editing Workflow: A relaxed look at my personal processing style and why it works for me.

• Confidence Building: Working at your own pace to help you trust your creative instincts.

Location & Logistics

I offer personalised sessions in some of the UK's most inspiring locations. I select specific spots based on your physical ability and photography goals.

• Primary Locations: The Peak District, The Lake District, and East Yorkshire.

• Custom Locations: Have a specific spot in mind? Get in touch! I am often able to travel to a location closer to you (travel fees may apply).

• Van Life Friendly: I typically stay in my campervan during workshops. If you are a fellow van-lifer or motorhome owner, I can advise on the best local spots to park up or campsites near our shooting locations.
