The session was wonderful and informative. Natalie was an excellent guide/teacher. I was nervous that I did not have enough knowledge of cameras/photography that I would not fit in and therefore, get discouraged to continue taking photos and learning. However, Natalie was so positive and gave helpful feedback. She definitely helped to build some confidence for me.

Weather was not on out side but it meant more 1 on 1 time which was great. Got me out of auto mode for sure and more confident using manual mode with a much better understanding of the exposure triangle, picture composition and different methods of shooting. Great teacher, friendly, outgoing and informative. Dog speed shooting was fun. much more aware of what i can do with my camera equipment now.

I attended the Street Photography Meetup with instruction and guidance from Al Montasser Othman yesterday; Saturday 9th September and I was very happy with the experience provided. Our host was friendly, open, knowledgeable and easy to talk to and could advise and guide experienced, intermediate and beginner level photographers with equipment ranging from DSLR cameras with extra lenses to mobile phone cameras. The group was small which felt reassuring and safe with the current COVID threat level. Also it was a perfect sized group so that every photographer had a chance to engage with our host and each other. The scenery and route (Great St Mary's Church and around the Marketplace through to Lion Yard) was ideal to capture a variety of interesting and challenging shots, subjects ranging from still life to moving people, vehicles, both colour and monochromatic scenes, and from architecture yo street performers to fascinating faces, bikes, street food vendors and much more and of course each other! We had a lot of fun supporting each other and I learnt a lot about my camera and how to take certain shots that I previously had absolutely no idea!! I am looking forward to uploading and sharing my shots ASAP, unfortunately I had an incident in which my camera got wet after the class had finished and it is dead 😭 so I am awaiting the chance to retrieve my shots from the memory card. I would most certainly join another Cambridge Photography Group event as soon as my equipment issue is resolved as i believe it has definitely added to my skill, knowledge, experience and confidence as a photographer and given me skills that I will use every time I pick up a camera.

I highly recommend this class!!

To be honest I used this event as an opportunity to "force" myself (or hold myself accountable, in a sense) to get out and use my camera. The stated theme of "urban" photography was also one of my favorite subjects: urban environements, not necessarily including people or traditional "street photography." With that in mind I enjoyed the opportunity. The event lead was attentive and checked in with me periodically.
