Close-up & Macro
We offer specific macro courses for individuals or small groups (max 5-6) where you can choose from a day to a week where you work with Paul Harcourt Davies, known internationally as the Macromaestro through his books, blogs, lectures and numerous articles. These courses are based around our home near Orvieto in Umbria where participants will have the opportunity to work in our fully equipped macro studio and use an extensive library. There is always plenty of time for appraisal of the day’s work and help and advice on post-processing in Lightroom.
We cater for all levels from complete beginner to expert, being flexible and able to accommodate your specific interests.
