"Clear, honest and impartial tuition with passion and motivation - liberating, stimulating, informative, digestible and confidence-building." Andrew Boddington, course participant

Photo Iconic is the name for the photography courses run in conjunction with leading photographers and judges of the Travel Photographer of the Year.

From short, sharp workshops that last just a few hours, through to one, two or three-day UK courses and longer international photographic holidays, we offer a range of courses, masterclasses and international adventures, all tutored by award-winning photographers.

Our courses are unique. Designed for small groups, two tutors allow us to provide the individual tuition as well a group tuition and will help you take your photography to the next level. An amusing, interesting and highly informative time is guaranteed! Find out more about our courses below.

Something for everyone....

Whether you're a beginner, a keen amateur or have turned professional, whether you use a digital camera or shoot film, we can help you to create images with impact.

It’s not just travel - we cover almost all aspects of photography. Learn landscape, people, travel, wildlife, architecture, low light photography and much more. And if you want to make a career in photography we’ll even teach you how to shoot to a brief, how to sell your images as stock and how to earn a living as a photographer.

To help you find the right photography course for you we've developed four different styles of Photo Iconic courses:

Pro for a Day - On assignment
Assignment based courses where we teach you to shoot like a pro and to a brief. Ideal for photographers, writers, journalists and anyone who wants to sell their images or would like to learn how to shoot them to illustrate features and books.

These courses include shooting a real assignment. Participants also have the option to attend a feedback day where we will critique your photography and teach you how to edit and select your images for publication in print or on the web.
