  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Having now done several courses with Glen. I would highly recommend all his courses from beginners to the more advanced ones, they are all excellent and are taught at a pace that suits everyone. Glen is so knowledgeable with every course well-structured and interactive in an easy informal way.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • Had a fantastic weekend learning beginner and portrait photography with Glen. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about all aspects of photography. He is also able to explain techniques and camera settings in very simple and memorable terms so at the end of the day you are producing professional looking photographs yourself. I really hope to do more courses with Glen in future. All other students on the portrait course were returning students that had done previous courses with Glen!

After three years at university I’ve learnt more in 7 hours on Glen’s course than I did at university… It’s been a big help learning the tips and tricks off photography and I would highly recommend this course to anyone. Matt Letts

Previous providers of these courses have spent far too much time on unnecessary camera settings and constant adjustments. This course is so much more practical and I learnt a huge amount. I would highly recommend anyone interested in photography to get on one of these courses and you will surprise yourself how quickly your photographs improve. A great tutor who delivered the course content in an easy to understand and relaxed manner. Ian Cadwallader

I have done the beginners course with Glen and the Lightroom, i cannot recommend Glen enough his courses are amazing and his support is brilliant throughout the courses and after. Cannot wait to book my intermediate course with Glen.

I attended the beginners and intermediate courses on 14th and 15th September. Both were excellent, being practical, inspiring and enjoyable. The small-group size made the tuition very personal, with Glen able to respond to each group member’s particular skill needs or issues. I am now far more confident with my camera with a clear understanding of how to achieve the ‘wow factor’ in my photos. I look forward to attending more of Glen’s courses in the future. Warwick Franklyn

Having now done several courses with Glen. I would highly recommend all his courses from beginners to the more advanced ones, they are all excellent and are taught at a pace that suits everyone. Glen is so knowledgeable with every course well-structured and interactive in an easy informal way. Jim Wood

Having done the Beginners Course and the Bird and Landscape Course, I have learned a multitude of skills/techniques and feel far more confident and understand my camera much more. The tuition is very clear and very much hands on. Will I remember everything?? That’s down to me to get out and practice!! Now looking to enroll on more courses. Richard Beaumont

I rather naively thought I knew quite a bit about photography until I went on Glen’s courses. Even on the Basic course I learnt such a lot. Glen is a wonderful teacher. He is patient and explains everything in a concise and interesting manner with a good mixture of theory and practical. His passion for photography shines through. I would not hesitate to book up for any of the courses. Carrie Boardley

If you want to learn about every subject in photography book yourself a course with Glen Tillyard I have done several courses over a few years you have a maximum of 6 students on the course.Glen will get you off the auto setting in one day.Everything is explained in a straight forward way and easy to understand.don’t waste your money doing college courses.The macro course is the best I’ve ever done and is my favourite subject it’s made me so confident to take photos of insects and flowers that I could only dream of before.

Enjoyed and have benefitted from my various courses with Glen. He is very welcoming and quickly involves everyone (usually no more than six people on a session) enabling everyone to relax in each others company. My photography has improved as a result of my attending his various courses and I am really enjoying my photography now.

Well I started with Glen say about nearly 9 or 10 years ago with a new camera. Started with the basic course & yes he got me hooked. Changed to another camera, bought more lens. Also did many more of his courses. Loved the way he taught, easy & didn’t rush you through things. I have now so much enjoyment out of my camera & no more auto settings. Thanks Glen. X. Also thanks to Jacqui for lovely lunches & warm welcome from Misty. Di Norwood

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. Roger Brookstein

I have attended three different courses run by Glen. The courses cover the stuff you really want to know in order to see an immediate difference. Glen is very patient and will stop and explain when you get stuck so you don’t feel the content is ‘running away with you’ before you have understood it. Sian Power

Had a fantastic weekend learning beginner and portrait photography with Glen. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about all aspects of photography. He is also able to explain techniques and camera settings in very simple and memorable terms so at the end of the day you are producing professional looking photographs yourself. I really hope to do more courses with Glen in future. All other students on the portrait course were returning students that had done previous courses with Glen!

I have attended many courses run by Glen, he is an excellent tutor, explaining things in detail and in a way people can understand, I thoroughly recommend all of Glen’s courses. They take place in comfortable surroundings and always with an excellent lunch and refreshments. Caroline Hart

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! Debbie Burke

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. Jason Newell

I can’t recommend Glen’s courses highly enough. I learnt so much in a day and came away confident to try out all sorts of shots. I feared it would either be superficial or information overload but it was neither – instead perfectly pitched. David Painter

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. Eddie Spooner

Been on several of Glen’s courses and they’ve always been excellent. He has amazing knowledge and experience but, best of all, he is a terrific trainer and teacher. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who wants to further their understanding of the art of photography. Darrell Whitehead

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! Jane Allwright

I had been using an SLR for many years having started with 35mm. I had got to a point where interest in photography was dwindling, largely because I couldn’t get the results I wanted. I attended the beginners course based on the positive experience my Mum had. I have subsequently attended several other courses and have enjoyed my photography far more ever since. Glen is able to teach students in an easy to understand and practical way. There is a good mixture of theory and practical on his courses I’d strongly recommend anyone who wants to learn how to use their camera properly to at least attend the beginners course. Paul Rose

I attended Glens Intermediate Course and have to say how good it was being able to use the 221 space available. The course was relaxed and this is due to the surroundings, but also informative and extremely memorable, thanks to the handouts given which can be used for revision and swotting! Thank you Glen for two very good session and am looking forward to the Big Cats in September! Rich A.

Glen runs great courses in all aspects of photography – from beginner-level to advanced techniques. Very practical field-based stuff – not classroom theory. I learned way more from Glen in a planned series of 5 day-long sessions than in the previous three years of attempted book study put together. Very highly recommended and certainly worth the outlay. A real return on investment! Bernie Catterall

Excellent, can’t rate them high enough. I’ve done so many courses with Glen and can’t wait to do more.Stewart Dorey

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. Claire Jackson

brilliant course, taught me a lot well worth it. Has improved my photography a lot. Brian Macleod

I have now attended both the beginner and intermediate courses with Glen after my wife booked the initial course from a Google search for my birthday. Well she did very well! Glen is a very experienced and knowledgeable tutor, not to mention a nice chap aswell. I have learnt more in 2 days than I ever could have imagined. I attended a group booking (max. 6) which was a nice size, with everyone helping each other during the day. The courses are relaxed, friendly and everything is put over in an easy to understand way. Anyone who has been on a course with Glen can join his fantastic facebook group (free), which is a very friendly and helpful group for extra advice and maybe join the 52 week project(again free, post a picture a week to improve your photography through the year) or even attend a group day out and meet some great like minded people. Don’t hesitate to book, I will be again soon! Highly recommended. Andrew Johnson

Went on the beginners course and i have to say that within the first hour i had learned so much, no more auto for me. Im booked onto an evening course later in the year, it is done in such and easy atmosphere with small classes, well worth looking into at any stage of photographer, as there is a course for beginners to experts. Tony Bryan

Fantastic Beginners course. Learnt so much in a day. Amazed at how my photography has come on. Glenn made it fun and interesting as well as cramming lots of info in! Would definitely recommend if you are looking to improve your photography skills or are a complete beginner like myself. Cheers Glenn – great day and course! Olivia Robinson

Glen’s courses are excellent. I have attended two and I now understand my camera better, use it with confidence and have managed to compose some photos that I am really happy with. Ian Dalzell

Just finished a 5 day advanced course. Glen has a wealth of knowledge that he is able to share in a professional and friendly manner. would highly recommend to anyone want to start or progress in photography! Ben Caves

Glen’s courses are excellent, they are all limited to a maximum of six people so they are very hands on, the subjects are handled in a very practical way, you will come away having learned loads! What Glen doesn’t know about photography and editing is really not worth knowing, he has a vast experience and has an easy way of putting that experience across to course attendees. Robert Bent

I have come on so much in my photography since having my lessons with Glen, his teaching techniques makes all the photography jargon so much easier to understand. With a policy of 6 students to a course gives Glen the time to ensure you understand; if you don’t catch on the first time, he’ll get you there. I never hesitate in telling people what a good teacher he is. I always used to have my camera set on auto; after my first lesson with Glen I never use Auto. I’m attending my 6th course with Glen very soon, each subject opens my eyes more and more. Thank you Glen your courses are great. Julie Milne

I have attended so many of Glen’s courses that I am sure I own part of his house. Every one of his courses have been well researched and presented. I found that there was always just the right amount of people attending so never crowded which means that Glen can give you time and make you feel like you are the only one there. I have over the years learned so much which now seems like second nature and some people will say that my photography is of a standard that I should be professional. All of this thanks to Glen giving me direction and to a degree imagination. And to cap it all he has a really great dog whom you will be photographing if you attend his basic beginners course. I do not hesitate in recommending him and I am one of many who have just about attended all of his courses which must number in double figures. Keep up the fantastic work. David Allen

Whether you’re new to the world of digital photography or just wanting to improve your techniques, Glen will have a course to suit you. He has that rare ability to cut through the jargon and share his knowledge in a fun and engaging manner such that you’ll keep coming back for more – watch out, it’s addictive 😀 David Orme.

I’ve done many of Glen’s course and all have been excellent. His courses are well paced and no questions are too stupid. I have always been very pleased with the results I produce at the end of each course and I am able to replicate at home. Outside of courses he is always on hand to offer assistance and answer questions. I would definitely recommend, you’ll do the Beginners course and then you will be hooked! Sarah Seaton

I have been on several of these courses run by Glen Tillyard, the experience is unbelievable because you learn so much about your camera and how to take superb photographs relevant to the course that you are on. The instruction is well paced and Glen ensures that you fully understand what you are doing. You are able to use his face book site to upload your photographs after the course completes, this in effect gets feedback coming to you from more experienced photographers within the group which means you are able to keep improving on what you have learnt. Credit also to Jacqui, Glens wife for organizing the lovely food. Excellent value for money, Recommended to all. Thank you Glen and Jacqui. Lee Marshall

I thoroughly enjoyed the course. It was definitely of benefit to me having the 1 to 1 tuition. I look forward to practising the techniques. Nick Ward

I attended the 121 Beginner’s Course with Glen at the end of February and was a little skeptical that I would really come away understanding all those areas he listed under course content – surely I would never learn all those things, in one day? But wow, I was very, very impressed. Glen is a great photographer, and a great teacher – the two don’t always go hand in hand. I haven’t been on Auto since and now for the first time in seriously years, I feel I know my camera and at last can enjoy taking it out!  Needless to say, I’ve since booked the 4-course-package deal and can’t wait to learn more. If in doubt, book your course now – you can only regret what you don’t do rather than what you do!  Liz Staveley

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 to be honest and say that I was a little reluctant to do the beginners course because I had done one previously with someone else and I thought I knew enough to qualify as an Intermediate photographer.” “However, I had to eat humble pie and admit I learnt more than enough for it to be worthwhile. A lot of it was refreshing my memory from things I knew but had forgotten but there were also several things that, though basic, I just didn’t know! I think the beginners should remain a mandatory requirement for anyone.” Paul Rose

I was reluctant to do the beginners course, but extremely glad that I did. Even after taking photos for a lot of years it helped me to know the fundamentals and build on then. Getting off the ‘auto setting’ was crucial and gave control. The beginners course was the best money that I ever invested in photography. Jim Tyson.

This course simplifies the main elements of photography so well. This is by far the best photography course I ever attended by far. Erika Clarkson.

This day has made me so much more aware of the points I need to think about when taking pictures. The theory was well explained with a good combination of techniques , examples and trouble shooting tips. The course maintained a good pace with just the right amount of information and practical exercises. Carol B

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.

A wonderful photography course with excellent one to one tuition to help me pursue my personnel aims of moving subjects and focusing on difficult objects like flowers and getting the background blurry. I feel much more confident using a wide variety of settings on my camera and I’m very pleased with my pictures. Thank you!”

I found the beginners course very interesting and informative. Glen was very keen to help everyone and answer questions. I feel far more confident switching between the various settings now. Sian Power,

Fabulous day. Well paced and informative with lots of practical advice. As a novice photographer Glen was very patient and made learning easy. I can’t wait to get started now. Julie Jenkins.

Excellent Intermediate Course which covered lots of details but well worth it and I would recommend to anyone. Jo Burton.

Glen has been very patient and accommodating sorting out my camera problems. Rina Asbrey.

Great hands on experience day. Glen has very impressive knowledge. Debbie Burke.

A really great starter course. I feel a lot more confident going out to take pictures off the auto setting now, Janet Thomson. The entire day was well organised and structured. I already feel 100% more confident in using the correct settings and understanding when to use them. Glen is an excellent teacher and helpful in every way possible. Lara Addison

A great learner course, in a friendly environment, which leaves you wanting to learn and practice even more. Jarrod Christie-Smith.

Even as a teenager the course was easy to understand and has already increased my photography skills massively. Georgia

A really good photography course. I had literally only managed to put the battery and memory card at the start of the day. By the end of the course I had several photographs I feel proud of. I’m really enthusiastic to go out and practise tomorrow. Kim.

The Portrait Course provided a good balance between theory and practice. We were shown how to select the correct camera settings to take good portraits in different environments and given advice on how to set up a home studio. Yet another excellent course in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. I’m looking forward to my next one. Kamila Marshall

The ‘Beginners Course’ provided a very well structured introduction to DSLR photography and I now feel more confident in using my camera with the correct settings for taking creative photographs. I would highly recommend the course and will certainly be undertaking further courses. I’m looking forward to my next course. Kamila Marshall

A very friendly and easy to understand course. I wish I had met Glen before I purchased my camera because his knowledge and technical advice is amazing and I wouldn’t have wasted my money on a bridge camera. I can’t wait to get a new DSLR and take the pictures I want to. Tania Kent – Beginners Course.

A really well paced course and not full of technical jargon. Very effective teaching methods which were easy to understand and Glen made sure all our questions were answered. Nathan Ingram – Beginners Course. Superb!

Glen unlocked the mystery of the terminology and I feel much more confident in coming off Full Auto. Many Thanks. Colin Jones –

Beginners Course. Glen’s teaching skills were great and he was very patient. Before attending the course I was concerned I wouldn’t be able to keep up as I find learning about technical details quite difficult. I needn’t have worried as Glen made it easy to understand and proved that even beginners are able to take good photographs after just one day. Emma Anderton

Excellent Day! I was frustrated that I didn’t feel I grasped everything instantly but after practicing I felt much more confident being able to work at my own speed. This course has renewed my interest in photography. Caroline Jackson

The Macro course is probably my favourite course so far. It was really enjoyable, especially the practical side, and macro lenses are Fab. I feel I have learnt so much but I fear I may spend far to long looking at the world in close up. Shan Swann – Macro Photography Course.
