Photography Courses in Leicester & Leicestershire by Glen Tillyard

Excellent courses, clearly presented, lots of practical tips and advice that you can take away and use. I can highly recommend Glen as I have been on a number of courses and have never been disappointed.

Highly recommended. Glen's skill and experience is obvious and his passion is infectious. We went to learn product photography for work. I arrived with no interest in photography beyond the need to learn for work, and left with enthusiasm to continue learning. The course was exactly what we were looking for and had been tailored to our needs. We learned everything we needed to know and more. The teaching was delivered excellently and was paced well. The course was engaging and very enjoyable. We travelled from Devon to attend and plan to go back at some point in the future. It was well worth the trip.

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.

My wife bought me a beginner course as a birthday gift after I had bought a DSLR for our Skye holiday, where I pretty much just used the auto setting on the camera. I am now using all the settings except auto. Glen paced the course very well and established what the attendees wanted from the outset, so he had our objectives in mind when delivering the course. It was a good mix of theory and practical, putting into use what we had covered. The follow-up summary was very useful, including the advice on composition and shot selection. The after-course support is also top notch, providing a network to ensure the attendee can continue to develop and nurture their photography skills.

Found this as a result of a Google search, was looking to get my camera off the automatic setting. I was impressed by the website and thought that it'd be worth the trip down from Liverpool for the day, small group, well taught with a practical session, nice friendly people, and great support, it really is the 'group that keeps on giving!' Have done most, if not all, of the courses now. Loved every one. Glen is really good at getting things across and I learnt more in one day than I believed possible. Excellent find!

I loved everything about Glen’s introduction course … the small group size, the informal setting, instructions simply presented, Glen’s wide knowledge and endless patience, the beautiful setting to practice in, the handy size take home notes and online groups for support and feedback. Thank you, Glen. Shelly Smith

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.

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.

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.....
