Hi all
I just wanted to thanks everyone who came along on Saturday for the studio day. It was fun - and I hope everyone learnt something useful about lighting. Thanks also to all the models who worked especially hard.

Hi, my Name is Ben, I run a small distribution company selling Holga Cameras and Polaroid Film. It is called Minute Film and can be found at www.minutefilm.co.uk. I am pretty passionate about the importance of learning photography from a very basic start. I like to photograph things that exist only photographically - like shallow depth of field, movement, infra-red. I also write a blog... www.minutefilm.blogspot.com.

Hi Ben good to have you onboard. I do really like taking the holga out now and again for a change of pace. It's a totally different experience from the dslr and makes you go back to basics. I thoroughly recommend every one should try one out.

Hi I'm John from Colwyn Bay, just getting into photography and loving every minute of it .

Really impressed with the way everyone has been so friendly and chilled out at the two academy evnings that I've been to, thanks for making me feel welcome .

Main interests are in photographing structures (goes with the job of being an engineer) and night time photography, although the Chester academy night on low and high key work has also got me interested in trying some B&W punky or retro type studio work .

Looking forward to Anglesey academy night on B&W photography/photo journalism.

[Lee Iggulden]

Glad you have enjoyed yourself so far John.

Putting together a very special workshop that will cover all aspects of the sort of photography that you love. Night, Buildings and Cityscape.

Might mean you will have to sleep during the day cos this ones being planned to run all through the late evening and into the night
