Photography Courses with Award Winning Leicester Mercury Press Photographer & College Tutor - Glen Tillyard.
As a professional press photographer, I have to get the best picture, in the shortest possible time, every time.
This is what I will teach you on every one of our 20 plus photography courses.
As a college tutor I know that every student has a different learning style so why would you choose to have photography tuition from a cheap wedding photographer or sales assistant?
Our jargon free courses are limited to six students and will suit everyone from the complete novice to the intermediate photographer. Training takes place in the picturesque village of Smeeton Westerby in beautiful rural Leicestershire. Course run from 9-30am to 5pm and include a light lunch. They are suitable for Digital SLRs, Mirrorless EVF Cameras and Bridge or Hybrid Cameras.
The Beginners Photography Course includes a free pocket guide to landscape, portrait and action photography.

I bought a DSLR camera a few years ago, and like most people, believed all I need was to leave it on 'Auto' and snap away. Feeling I need more from this investment, I sought out some tuition and hit lucky. In a relaxed environment, and a well-placed and friendly style, Glen opened my eyes to a new world. That journey continues to this day, Glen has sought me how take photographs that I am proud of. Whatever you want from a photography cause, Glen will teach you so much more. Recommended without reservation. Marc Darling
8/23/2019 - I have attended Beginner, Intermediate, Macro, Lightroom, Night and Advanced Night courses with Glen and each course increases your knowledge and understanding of the fascinating subject of Photography. Glens knowledge is simply astounding and covers every aspect of the subject and the workings and controls of any DSLR you could name. Information is presented at a pace that is easy to understand with no pretence or haste to move along. The beginners course alone will give you all you need to revolutionise your photography and head on out there with your camera ready to capture anything.....

2/23/2020 - I attended the beginners course yesterday and had a brilliant time. Glen is an excellent teacher I was impressed with his easy manner in putting across the salient points. The practical session in a lovely setting reinforced this learning and I was bitten. Without a doubt a first class course which I recommend to anyone you will be impressed. I am already booking further courses on my journey. Thanks Glen.

8/11/2019 - I attended Glen's beginner's photography course earlier this year and it was truly inspirational! For the first time I was able to move from the automatic setting on my camera and have confidence in experimenting with my photo taking. I am definitely going to book onto more courses!

8/11/2019 - Having recently completed two of Glen's courses (beginner and lightroom) I can highly recommend any budding photographer to do the same. The courses are well run and at a pace and style that makes learning easy and fun.
Glen has the patience of a saint and the ability to teach without feeling like you're being spoken down to or made to feel foolish in anyway.
If you are looking to improve your photography, whether you're just starting out or looking to go professional this is the place to come.

- Whenever I see a friend or colleague using their expensive digital camera in auto mode I recommend Glen to them. In the space of the day I went from thinking I knew how to use my camera to really understanding the techniques behind getting some great shots. Small group sizes mean Glen has time to spend on you, a lovely location great for taking pictures and the satisfaction that you're really using your camera to the best of it's and your abilities. Would not hesitate to recommend Glen and DPC.

7/16/2019 - Glen started me on the road with the beginners course. I have done several more courses since. They're fun and informative and have the right balance of practical work. Would highly recommend. I have attached some photos, my first attempts at new techniques, taken on some of the courses.

4/29/2019 - I have completed four courses with Glen, two editing and two with the camera. At all times his approach has been friendly with clear explanation and endless patience. The days are interesting and fun and I shall certainly be doing some more, as well as recommending others to learn from him.
