Embrace the art of photography at the picturesque Sewerby Hall in Bridlington, where I have the pleasure of hosting immersive photography workshops. Set against the stunning backdrop of the North Yorkshire coastal landscape, these workshops are designed for all levels of photographers—from beginners to seasoned enthusiasts.

At Sewerby Hall, participants can delve into the fundamentals of photography, explore the intricacies of composition, and discover the joy of capturing moments that tell a story. The beauty of this location provides endless opportunities for creativity. Attendees can expect to engage in guided walks around the hall's picturesque grounds, learning to frame shots that highlight the natural beauty of the area, from historic architecture to lush gardens.

On an exhilaratingly windy day at RSPB Bempton Cliffs, the conditions were ripe for a photography adventure. This spectacular nature reserve, perched on dramatic chalk cliffs overlooking the North Sea, is a haven for seabird enthusiasts and photographers alike. With the wind whipping through my hair, I was eager to capture the essence of the majestic gannets as they soared through the turbulent skies.

The gannet, known for its striking white plumage and impressive wingspan, is one of the UK’s largest seabirds. Watching these birds in flight is nothing short of breathtaking. The strong winds on this particular day caused the gannets to perform remarkable aerial displays, gracefully navigating the gusts with effortless elegance. Their ability to dive headlong into the sea to catch fish adds an element of drama that draws photographers to capture each intricate moment.

Setting up my camera with a longer lens allowed me to capture the action from a distance without disturbing the birds. As I looked through the viewfinder, I was struck by the contrast of the gannets against the deep blue ocean and vibrant sky. The wind created dramatic landscapes of clouds that added character to the scenes I was capturing. With each gust, the birds would rise higher, swooping and gliding, occasionally locking their wings for a brief moment of stillness before diving into the waves.

The RSPB Bempton Cliffs reserve offers one of the most spectacular birdwatching experiences in the United Kingdom. Nestled on the dramatic Yorkshire coast, it is renowned for its towering cliffs and stunning sea views, making it an ideal location for photographers seeking to capture the beauty of gannets and other seabirds.

I am absolutely thrilled to announce an incredibly exciting opportunity for all photography enthusiasts out there! On the 4th of June, I will be hosting a captivating photography workshop at the stunning and picturesque Newby Hall. This workshop is specifically designed for photographers of all skill levels, whether you are just beginning your creative journey or looking to refine and enhance your existing techniques. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of one of North Yorkshire’s most beautiful and revered venues, this workshop will immerse you in a comprehensive, hands-on learning experience.
