Summer Fireworks Workshop
Join me on a summer fireworks photography workshop where you will learn how to take spectacular photos of fireworks launching from Tenby’s picturesque harbour. Also included as part of this workshop is a three hour photo walk where we will capture some of the best viewpoints around the town.
We meet for coffee and an introduction at 4:30pm. Here you’ll learn some of the theory of photography, and how this relates to taking good fireworks photos. By 6:00pm we will depart for a three hour photo walk around Tenby and its harbour.
We arrive at our shooting location at 9:00pm, after the sun sets. This give us an hour to practice the techniques in the dark.
Finally – the main event – the fireworks launch at 10:00pm. By this time we will be confident and prepared to capture some incredible fireworks photos.

FAQs
What happens if the weather is poor?
Tenby’s fireworks display goes ahead even when it’s raining, so the workshop goes ahead too! It does mean though that we need to take extra care to protect our camera equipment from the rain. Rain covers will be supplied, but bring your own umbrella just in case.
Is my camera suitable?
This workshop is suitable for any DSLR camera or a compact cmaera with manual setting. If in doubt, please contact me with your camera model and I will respond ASAP.
I don't have a tripod, can I still join the workshop?
A tripod is required for this session. One may be hired for the session at a cost of £12.
What is the cancellation policy?
Full payment is taken upfront. You may cancel your workshop up to 24 hours before and receive a full refund. A cancellation within 24 hours of the workshop will receive a 60% refund.
