1 - 2 - 1 Tuition For You
1-2-1 Photography Guidance with No RePete Photos
Personalised Support to Unlock Your Creative Potential
Photography is a personal journey, one that evolves through curiosity, exploration, and reflection. At No RePete Photos, we offer 1-2-1 photography guidance that goes beyond traditional teaching. It’s not about rigid instruction, it’s about inspiration, discovery, and helping you learn how to see the world differently through your lens.
It All Started With a Question...
“Do you run workshops or offer coaching?”
It’s a question I’ve heard many times. And for a while, I hesitated, because what I wanted to offer wasn’t quite a “workshop” or a “class.” What I envisioned was something more personal. More flexible. More attuned to the individual photographer and their creative growth.
That’s how 1-2-1 photography guidance was born.
Rather than a formal teaching environment, these sessions are designed as collaborative experiences, where we walk, talk, shoot, reflect, and grow together.
Whether you’re just starting out, seeking inspiration, or eager to sharpen your skills, this is your opportunity to step into your photography with confidence, creativity, and clarity.
Who This Is For
If you’ve ever felt stuck in your photography...
If you’ve bought gear but aren’t sure how to use it creatively...
If you take technically “correct” shots but want to make them more emotionally compelling...
If you crave guidance that fits your pace, your vision, your voice...
This is for you.
1-2-1 tuition is ideal for:
Beginners looking to master the basics without being overwhelmed
Intermediate photographers wanting to refine composition, lighting, and storytelling
Creative souls who want to find their own unique visual style
Hobbyists tired of cookie-cutter tutorials and seeking something more tailored
Anyone looking to reignite their passion for photography
These sessions aren’t lectures. They’re conversations. Explorations. Moments of shared insight. Think of it as having a seasoned mentor walking beside you, pointing things out, suggesting new angles, answering questions, and helping you uncover the potential you already have.
What You’ll Learn
Our sessions are designed around you, your goals, your skill level, your creative interests.
Instead of following a pre-set curriculum, each session flows naturally based on what you want to explore. But here’s a glimpse of what we often cover:
1. Seeing Differently
We begin with observation. What draws your attention? How do you frame a scene? What are you missing? You’ll learn how to slow down and see not just what’s there, but what could be.
2. Understanding Light
Light is everything in photography. You’ll learn how to use natural and available light to enhance mood, depth, and emotion in your images. We’ll explore shadow, contrast, and time of day, all in real-world settings.
3. Composition and Framing
We’ll work together to understand how to structure a photograph, using lines, shapes, balance, and space. Small changes in perspective can make a big difference. You’ll learn how to craft images that feel intentional and compelling.
4. Camera Techniques
Depending on your experience level, we can explore how to:
Master manual mode
Adjust aperture, shutter speed, and ISO confidently
Use focus creatively
Work with different lenses and focal lengths
It’s not about jargon, it’s about using your camera as a creative tool, not a technical obstacle.
5. Editing for Expression
We’ll also look at how to enhance your images in post-processing. Not to "fix" them, but to bring your vision to life. You’ll learn:
How to develop a consistent editing style
Basic to intermediate editing
How colour, contrast, and tone shape mood
When less is more (and when it’s not)
Whether you love bold edits or prefer a subtle touch, the goal is to help you create work that feels like you.
Your Journey, Your Session: How It Works
Each 1-2-1 session is completely bespoke, designed around your interests, goals, and schedule.
Step 1: Reach Out
Contact me via email with the following:
Your current photography skill level
The areas you’d like to develop or focus on
The camera gear and equipment you use
What kind of photography excites you (landscape, portrait, travel, etc.)
What you hope to achieve from the session
The more you share, the better I can tailor the experience to you.
Step 2: Schedule & Plan
Once we’ve reviewed your needs, we’ll agree on a date and location that works for you. Please provide:
Your preferred date
At least three alternative dates (for scheduling flexibility)
Any specific locations you’d like to explore (e.g., coastal scenes, open moors, woodlands, etc.)
If you’re not sure, I can suggest spots based on what you’re trying to capture.
Step 3: The Session
On the day of the session, we’ll meet at the agreed location and begin our creative walk. We’ll spend 8 to 10 hours together, enough time to explore, learn, create, and reflect without rush.
It’s a relaxed, pressure-free environment where questions are welcomed, mistakes are embraced, and creativity is encouraged.
We’ll stop for breaks, review images on the spot, and even have editing discussions if you bring a laptop or tablet.

Why This Isn’t Just a Workshop
This isn’t a classroom. This isn’t a step-by-step guidebook. This is a creative companion walking beside you—asking better questions, showing different angles, and encouraging you to see more than what’s obvious.
It’s a chance to:
Break free from YouTube tutorials and find your own rhythm
Get meaningful feedback in real time
Build confidence in your ideas and execution
Find joy in the process, not just the result
Many photographers struggle not because they lack skill, but because they don’t have the support to help them grow. That’s what this is.
