Impressions of London Photography Workshop

  • 11th December, 2026

  • £319.00

  • Approximately - Loading...

Our Impressions of London Photography Workshop will take place in December and will be led by Bill Ward.

The South Bank of the Thames is an extraordinary place to spend time with a camera. Juxtaposition is everywhere. High tech modernity rubs shoulders with history and old school industrialisation. There’s the Tate Modern, the Millennium Bridge, St Paul’s Cathedral and The Globe Theatre. All humanity is here: a plethora of buskers, tourists, not to mention Londoners, going about their everyday lives. With purpose. And at some speed. There’s a buzz and busy-ness everywhere… places to be… the beating heart of central London…

Impressions of London Photography Workshop
And yet there’s quiet here too. Wide open space, and time for reflection. The Tate Modern garden, and the silver birches that surround it. The glorious views both across and along the Thames. Cafes, street and pavement art, and artists… even a surprise beach at low tide…

The photographic possibilities are pretty much exponential.

Our workshop will concentrate on developing our skills in what are often referred to as “Creative Photography” techniques, in particular Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) and In Camera Multiple Exposures, as well as Abstract. Your guide for the day, Bill, has been a leading practitioner of these for well over a decade, and is a regular writer/contributor for the worldwide ICM Photography Magazine. He’s particularly evangelical about their ability to get right under the skin of a place, a time, a feeling, and reveal their very essence.

London Photography Workshop

An actor by training, Bill is well versed in the creative process, the benefits of working with an open mind, the joy of improvising and going with what you’re given.  He’s particularly interested in working on the fly: staying in the moment, seeing what comes up on the back of the camera, and using it as a springboard for an unknown destination.

Bill spent 20 years living in London, much of it with a camera in his hand, and revisits it frequently. He is thoroughly looking forward to spending some quality time back in the thick of it…

The workshop, which will run from 10am to 4:30pm, is limited to 6 participants.

Luxury Editions

Essentially, a Luxury Editions tour is an exclusive micro learning group with five star tuition and treatment in all aspects of the tour. Each year a small number of ‘Luxury Editions’ tours will run where the group numbers no more than four photographers per tutor. Here the learning approach is more intensive where the leader is able to offer constant ‘hands-on guidance’ allowing them an opportunity to work in depth with each individual photographer in addition to working with the group on a collective basis. In addition to this, the accommodation will be of a high standard and special extras will be included. These tours are only taught by our long standing leaders who have years of experience and are highly sought after. If you would like to join a Luxury Edition tour, then the requirement would simply be a complete understanding of the workings of the camera and the desire and commitment needed to attend the workshop.

Off the Beaten Track

Our 'Off the Beaten Track' tours cater for those more adventurous photographers who would like to get off the beaten track and explore roads untrodden or delve into the culture of a place. Groups are small and you can be assured that although the tour leader will have an in-depth knowledge of the location, you may veer off track if an unplanned photography opportunity presents itself! The tuition is five star on these tours. The accommodation varies on these tours from mid range hotels, shared cabins on a ship to basic and clean camps. Our priority is to get you to the best locations in time for the best shot and if this means camping half way up a mountain then so be it! Our 'Off the Beaten Track' tutors will have experience and knowledge of the area, so you can be assured that you will be completely taken care off to allow you to concentrate on that award winning image. If you would like to join an ‘Off the Beaten Track’ tour, then a good knowledge of your camera would be an advantage, but not essential, and the desire and commitment needed to attend the workshop. We do also ask that you have a good level of fitness as these tours could involve a large amount of walking. Check each tours description for requirements.

Classic

Our Classic tours are aimed at those who wish to discover unique locations, but at a more leisurely pace than the Off the Beaten Track tours. There will be ample time to immerse yourself in the location and spend time on your photography. Classic tours also focus on sunrise and sunset (which are optional for those who like to sleep in!) and have a slightly larger group size (max 8 per tutor) to allow the social side of photography to be appreciated. Tuition is five star and hotels are mid-high range depending on the tour. Every classic tour is different so do refer to the tour description for details of accommodation and locations visited. If you would like to join a ‘Classic’ tour, then a good knowledge of your camera would be an advantage, but not essential, and the desire and commitment needed to attend the workshop. Fitness levels required vary depending on the tour so do check the exertion level under the description tab.

City Tours

Interested in architectural photography or street photography? Do you get a buzz from photographing city life? Then a city tour is for you. We have a range of tours catering to various styles of photography including People/Street, Intentional Camera Movement, Iphoneography or Architectural photography. Tours range in length from weekend breaks, ideal for those who don’t have may days holiday left, or longer tours to allow yourself to truly explore the city. Our tutors have an in-depth knowledge of the location and will take you to undiscovered spots to ensure you come away with a varied selection of images that you are proud of. If you would like to join a ‘City’ tour, the requirement would simply be a complete understanding of the workings of the camera and the desire and commitment needed to attend the workshop. Fitness levels required vary depending on the tour so do check the exertion level under the description tab.

Easy - Most locations are reached by vehicle or involve only very short walks on level ground. Subjects and viewpoints are typically close to where we stop. No particular level of fitness is required, although participants should be comfortable standing and walking short distances outdoors.

Moderate - These tours involve regular walking, which may include town streets, coastal paths, countryside trails, or uneven natural ground. Distances are generally manageable, but may include occasional longer walks, gentle gradients, or uneven surfaces such as sand, cobbles, or rough tracks. A reasonable level of mobility and comfort walking for extended periods is recommended. Please advise us in advance if you have any concerns about fitness or mobility.

Strenuous - These tours involve more demanding walking conditions, which may include longer distances on foot, steeper ascents and descents, and extended time on uneven or rough terrain. Locations may be remote or off the beaten track, where access requires sustained effort and careful footing.
