Come along to our photo sessions to dust off your camera and get snap-happy with a professional photography instructor.

Brush up on your camera skills and learn new photography techniques whilst on a photo walk class with other local keen photographers!

We run two hour photography sessions based on a photography theme/technique/style and they take place in various locations in Calgary.

  • New to photography? We also run a popular 3 hour Beginners Guide to Photography Class once a month. And once in a while we will run special niche 3 hour classes, for example, Astrophotography - so do subscribe to our newsletter to know when the next on is!

  • Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to keen amateurs. The photography instructor is there to help you with camera settings and provide any advice you need.

  • What to bring? We recommend bringing a camera that has full manual mode or semi-manual modes (Aperture or Shutter Priority). Compact cameras and smartphones also welcome!

    The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking.

    The event gave me an opportunity to take photos of things that aren't usually in my comfort zone. William brought lots of mirrors and 3D objects for us to try. I liked that we had input into some of the places we photographed.

    Overall, the street photography class was a thoroughly enjoyable and informative experience. The small group size, knowledgeable instructor, and hands-on approach made it a worthwhile investment. I would recommend this class to anyone interested in exploring the exciting world of street photography.

    William C was very knowledgeable about the different cameras each of us had. As well, W really knew the technical aspects of photography and how to use these to create the photos/effects you would want. WC is a patient instructor and gives attention, advice and suggestions to each attendee that relates to their level of skill and interest.

    We were hoping to hike to Troll Falls, Kananaskis, to check out an ND 64 filter I had just purchased. Due to the upcoming G7 meeting it was closed and we ended up doing the Widow Maker trail along the Kananaskis River.. I ended up taking this photo and was quite happy with the effect!

    Mount Yamnuska, also known as Iyamnathka or Mount John Laurie in Kananaskis Country. The summit stands at approximately 2240m above sea level. A capture I couldn?t resist as the early evening light was setting it splashed across the face of this magestic mountian.

    Title or Location: Nose Hill Park
    There?s something about this scene from Nose Hill Park that feels like the beginning of a fantasy adventure. The stillness, the snow-covered path, and the way the trees close in?it felt like stepping into another world. Shot on film, the grain adds a dreamlike, timeless quality, like a half-remembered memory or a scene from a storybook. Sometimes, it?s less about capturing a place and more about chasing a feeling.

    Title or Location: Cat Tales Wildlife Rescue, Spokane, WA
    I've lived in Spokane almost 15 years and had never visited the Cat Tales Wildlife Rescue in North Spokane. Finally got to visit and this wonderful tiger was posing for me as if I were directing it. I got several wonderful images but really loved this one. Taken with a Fujifilm XT-5, XF55-200mmF3.5-4.8 R LM OIS. Post processed with Skylum's Luminar Neo.
