The workshop starts in the centre of Cheltenham at the Cosy Club for a welcome coffee and a discussion on the plan for the day. After a brief for the day, Sam Nash will go through the four points above before heading out into Cheltenham to start shooting.

There will be a hour long break for lunch (not included) and to have chance for you to review your images.
