Where does one start  –  well my one wish was to learn how to use my camera on manual mode !

My impression of Julie prior to the tour to a week after finishing has been nothing but professional – at the same time I was very much a beginner and at no time did I ever feel as though I was less knowledgeable than anyone else.

Julie was always happy to help with either information, settings, help with composition, lighting and always praising me – which made my 4 days a remarkable experience.

For anyone reading this – Yes I am still using my camera on manual mode!!!!!

ISO, Shutter Speed, Aperture, and Histogram have become well known words in my vocabulary.

Not forgetting the following words : composition, hard and soft light, shadows, focus, bracketing, white balance, tripod, light meter, depth of field, and also finally LIGHTROOM !!!!!

Does brain drain come into this !!!!!

Early morning starts – fully packed days – lots of laughs, great company, information, assistance, amazing photos, and great meals – all in all a total success – if you have ever wished

to improve your photography I would firmly recommend doing a Julie Fletcher Photography Tour.

Until we meet again – hopefully sooner than later

Camera Settings do you really know what yours can do?

Know your camera well, free your creativity. Knowing where and how to adjust your camera settings is one of the most valuable skills a photographer can have. Out in the field, conditions rarely stay the same for long—light shifts, clouds roll in, wildlife moves, or the scene unfolds faster than you expect. If you have […]
