How to Shoot Architecture and Interiors – A Green Campus

A practical photography course informed by technical insight

Designed for DSLR/Mirrorless System owners who are reasonably confident with their equipment, this course explores how to tackle modern campus architecture. Based at the acclaimed Jubilee Campus at the University of Nottingham, with buildings by Hopkins and MAKE, you will learn how to approach buildings both internally and externally, working with people and light to create pictures with impact.

What your day includes

  • A walking tour of Jubilee Campus facilitating a visual appraisal of both the campus and individual structures with their associated landscape settings.
  • Plenty of tips when photographing individual buildings in their lakeside setting with a chance to use perspective control lenses (Canon & Nikon fit only).
  • The secrets of light inside and out, and controlling long exposures.
  • Classroom lecture with technical insights.
