GROUP TRAINING

For over 20 years Belfast Exposed Photography has been providing training and photographic project work throughout the region. Our current provision covers a range of training and project opportunities, from stand alone single day sessions to chunkier project type programmes that enable the exploration of ideas, themes and issues through a creative and challenging process.

We provide hands-on experience in both 35mm and digital photography, giving participants practical photographic skills including location work, scanning images and negatives, training in using Adobe Photoshop, traditional processing and printing, editing and exhibition planning and promotional advice.

Our previous clients are from a very wide range of individuals and organisations, including projects for Team Building Days, skills development for organisations that happen to use photography occasionally in their work, community centre based work and with individuals.
