Learn the fundamentals of cityscape photography with Dylan

About the event

Interested in learning how to capture captivating cityscapes?

Join award-winning photographer and Sony Digital Imaging Advocate, Dylan Giannakopoulos at his Introduction to Cityscape Photography workshop held at the Docklands on Saturday 11st February 2023.

Drawing upon the experience that he has gained from capturing cityscapes from around the world, Dylan has designed the workshop to teach you the fundamentals of cityscape photography and give you the confidence to shoot in manual mode.  

Taking place at the Docklands, participants will:

  • Learn about the three elements that make up the exposure triangle (ISO, aperture and shutter speed) and how to balance them to achieve correct exposure.
  • Discover how to utilise urban features as compositional elements
  • Understand quality of light and how it influences the best times of the day to shoot.
  • Master control of various camera modes and settings such as aperture priority, manual focusing, and learn how to read the camera’s histogram.

Strictly limited to 6 attendees, the small group structure of the workshop ensures that Dylan’s able to provide plenty of one on one tuition whilst ensuring social distancing.

After the workshop, you will be invited to join a private Facebook group which is strictly limited to past attendees of Dylan Gianna Photography Workshops. The Facebook group offers members a space to share their images, ask questions and learn tips and tricks from Dylan.
