TELL ME MORE!
Anybody who knows me knows that I love Art Deco, Street Photography, Architecture & good old groovy oddball stuff. I've designed 2 Photography Workshops with all this in mind. I’ve also made it into a walkable route around Morecambe using a cool map that I have designed to help you.
I picked Morecambe because many years ago I was delivering around the town and came across the Midland Hotel in a dilapidated old state. I thought then (even before I was a photographer) that it would make an awesome photo if it was done up.
Fast forward to Urban Splash who took over the renovations and in 2008 it re-opened as the wonderful Art Deco Hotel that I had hoped it would be. Morecambe was also one of my dad's favourite places and he used to take us on many walks there. We caught the bus there and back and always had a chippy tea.
Those really were the days of our lives!!!
For me personally, I think it has slowly started to turn around the fortunes of this lovely little town. We go back every now and again and it wasn’t until earlier this year that you could see that the place was changing, so much for the better.
Street Art has also come to the forefront of the town also and it can be found in many places. It has taken me a while to find everything, but I’m sure there is more being added all the time. Keep your eyes peeled!!!
Luckily for you guys, I have put two Photography Workshops together with a mixture of Architecture & Street Art, which are:
BRING ME SUNSHINE - MORECAMBES' STREET ART & ARCHITECTURE TRAIL - PART 1
BRING ME LAUGHTER - MORECAMBES' STREET ART & ARCHITECTURE TRAIL - PART 2
(They are both totally different from each other, nothing is repeated from either workshop)
Bring Me Sunshine deals with the East & West Side of Morecambe
Bring Me Laughter concentrates on Central Morecambe.
They both have their fair share of Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Modernist, Street Art, and downright grooviness!
Check out some images on the video we took a while back to give you some inspiration!!
All the locations have been scouted by me and my husband Andy. We have spent about 2 months getting these two workshops together.
The locations, sites of interest, walkability, and photography flow were of the utmost importance to us.
Once you book this workshop, the night before you will get a mobile map of all the places we are going to visit.
We’ll work as a group and I’ll be there to assist all the way around.
Don’t bother with tripods, it will be a free & easy hand-held sort of day.
Be there or be square I say!!!

QUESTIONS:
Q: Who is this course aimed at?
A: It would be helpful to know basic camera skills, how your camera works & how to achieve a basic exposure.
Q: I don’t have a camera, can I use my mobile?
A: Yes, you can. Not everybody has a camera. The best camera you can have is the one that you have in your hand. If it’s a mobile, then so be it.
Q: Can I buy this course as a gift for a friend/family with an E-Gift-Voucher?
A: Yes - contact me for details (see further down)
Q: Do you have a wet weather plan?
A: If you bring an umbrella, you won’t get wet.
Q: Can I work in Auto mode?
A: Yes. If at the end of the day, you want to get off auto, then book a starter course with me, I teach via Zoom and in person.
Q: Do I need to know how to read a map?
A: No, I will be there to help. I will help you spot the attractions because some are in weird and wonderful places.
Q: Can I wander off on my own?
A: For every 99.9 percent of good folk, there is a 00.1 percent of plonkers. I’m a great believer in safety in numbers - end of!
Q: Do I have to be fit?
A: It’s all flat surfaces but there may be some mileage involved & you’ll be carrying your camera gear - just things to note.
Q: How many people will be there?
A: 6 students only.
Q: What gear should I bring?
A: Years ago, I just used to have 1 cheap camera and 1 cheap lens, so I constantly zoomed with my feet. It’s horses for courses and completely up to you. I do like to work very simply and spend more time looking at angles than I do actually photographing things.
"Perspective is everything..."
Q: How do I pay you?
A: Contact me at MY EMAIL ADDRESS and I'll send you all the details
