About

Capture the extraordinary in the everyday with this hands-on Street Photography course offered by The University of Edinburgh.

Overview

Document people and places and experiment with shutter speeds, lighting, and composition. Develop your technical skills through practical exercises, including a walking field trip through Edinburgh. 

Use Adobe Photoshop to enhance your images and present a final project. Explore, reflect, and collaborate as you build confidence in both creative and technical photography.

You will be taught in specialist art and design studios, and this course will feature field trips to locations in or around Edinburgh (your teacher will confirm the itinerary in class).

Learners are responsible for purchasing their own materials. You may be required to bring some materials to your first and subsequent classes.
