Programme Type:

Course Overview

We offer a broad introduction to photographic practices and studies, including knowledge of basic camera skills and photo techniques, working on location and studio practices, coupled with health and safety and best practice in relation to workflow and post-production. Skills are developed in the areas such as the use of shooting manually, developing industry-standard software, research, learning, and presenting skills.

Our Certificate in Photography combines the theoretical with the practical to give you a complete comprehension of photography.

  • You will develop confidence in both  analog and digital photography – confidence with an analog camera and developing prints in the darkroom will enhance your digital technique. 
  • You will gain experience with  studio lighting, which is key for portraiture, fashion, and still life advertising shoots. 
  • Small  class sizes ensure that you get the one-on-one attention needed to perfect your technical and creative skills. 
  • Our  lecturers are professional photographers, actively working within the industry. They have  extensive  experience in many genres of photography, including portrait, commercial, fashion, and editorial photography.
  • You will have the  option to progress  into Year 2 of the BA in Photographic Media, with the Certificate as a foundation and building block.
