“Thank you for a very enjoyable and instructive day. I have learnt even more now with your words in my head and thinking what would you say of each image. I can see now how so many could be improved”
Andrew Hilton, Insect & Macro 1:1
“We all had a lovely time and Chaz learnt a lot about his camera etc. Thanks for the way you communicated with Chaz he responds much better when people don’t push him to speak.”

“Last year during the first lock-down, I decided I wanted to improve my wildlife photography and one of the first videos I found on YouTube was Paul’s. He explained things clearly and I thought once it was possible a 1 to 1 would be worthwhile and having now had that it was. He is enthusiastic about the subject and his constructive advice encourages you to get the best out of your images.”
Ian Pawson, Autumn Birds 1:1
“A consummate professional offering simple, effective offers of help, camera & subject guidance throughout the day’s Kingfisher photography. A most enjoyable experience, great value for money allowing me to achieve more than I ever thought possible. I will definitely be back for other courses later this year. Thank you.”
David Atkinson, Kingfisher Workshop
me will prove to be very useful as I continue to learn as a photographer.”
“I must admit to being a bit nervous at the thought of spending the day with a professional photographer as I am a total novice, but Paul is very easy to be with. He taught me a lot and by the end of the day I had photos I am proud to display on my wall. I also understand more about my camera and the art of photography. My next course is already booked!”
Julie Butterworth, 1:1 Nature Workshop

Janet Matthews Lane, 2:1 Landscape Workshop
“Thanks for a great day out in the wonderful Dales! I learnt several new techniques which I wouldn’t have come across anywhere else, so this day was such a valuable experience! It was great to visit different places to get the most out of the landscape, each time practising Paul’s top tips!“
Lucy Clews, 1:1 Workshop
“I had a great day with Paul and learned a lot. Even as an experienced photographer I picked up many tips and tried some new techniques too..”
Nik Goulthorp, Bird of Prey Workshop
“I went as a complete beginner, keen to learn some basics in wildlife photography that I could take away and expand on. Paul’s teaching skills, knowledge of photography and the structure of the day were absolutely fantastic! I learnt such a lot about camera settings, light and composition. After just one day, I felt I was no longer a beginner! I thoroughly recommend doing a workshop with Paul, whatever stage you are at.”
Sam Bell, 1:1 Nature Workshop
“Paul has a professional and enthusiastic approach to his work. The many tips and techniques he showed me were invaluable; I’m already looking forward to my next photo shoot..”

“Dawn and I want to thank you Paul for the brilliant time we had photographing birds of prey. The welcome to Ben’s place was warm, and, with their knowledge of the birds and your expertise at photography, the whole experience is to be recommended. We would love to join you again.”
Dawn & Julie Butterworth,
“Paul has been scouting different areas of Yorkshire for years, and knows many great places for wildlife. The moors above Reeth proved a happy hunting ground, with plenty of grouse appearing, posing, and entertaining with their amusing calls. The day started early-ish, at 7.30, but it was worth it in order to get the morning light and a period of the day when the grouse are more active. Paul took care of all the driving, motoring up and down the moor, stopping when photographic opportunities presented themselves, and effectively using the car as a mobile hide. It’s a wonderfully lazy way to do wildlife photography, but when the birds come as close as they do to the car, why not? It also makes life easier as the grouse, while more jittery around walkers, seem relatively relaxed around the car.
There were opportunities to get the classic shots of grouse in the purple heather, strutting around or with just their heads bobbing out, as if checking for predators. Others could be found posing on the drystone walls, and as well as the individual grouse, we came across large family groups – more than half a dozen perched together on a wall on the horizon at one point, later an even larger group right by the roadside. All in all, it made for a great day’s photography..“
Craig Lindsay, Red Grouse Workshop
“Hi Paul. I had a great time and learnt a lot, which was what I wanted. Really pleased with the day. I enjoyed your company just as much and have now subscribed to your blog. I will join you again in the future.”
Richard Hopkins, Bempton Cliffs Workshop
I would just like to say, that I thoroughly enjoyed my photographic day out with you, the locations and advice were spot on. I am already using some of your techniques…”
Brian Jacques, 1:1 Workshop
“Just a very quick note to day thank you for a great day, very enjoyable, and very informative and very inspiring – really enjoyed it.”
Nigel Green, Landscape Workshop
“Hi Paul. I had a most enjoyable day and learnt a great deal. It was a pleasure to meet you too.”
Peter Todd , 1:1 Workshop

Paul was extremely helpful, and taught me a lot. I enjoyed my morning in Golden Acre Park with Paul and the various wildlife. A lesson with Paul is highly recommended!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the morning Tatiana. You are very passionate about wildlife! I hope you continue to learn more about the photography.
