“She explained how to do the photos really clearly, and helped us if we got stuck”
Anna was a really fun and kind teacher. She explained how to do the photos really clearly, and helped us if we got stuck. She had good ideas on fun and different things to photograph, and I learnt lots of new photo techniques.
She showed us how to improve our photos and I was really pleased with some of the photos I took.

“Her brilliant sense of humour and charm engages with all”
Anna has a wonderful ability to make everyone feel at ease. Whether supporting challenging young people to access photography for the first time or capturing performances on a world-leading stage, she just makes it all feel so natural.
Her brilliant sense of humour and charm engages with all and, allows her to tease the best out of everyone. A real asset to any project and a joy to work with.

“Anna was able to come to our rescue to work with him and to use her technical expertise and experience to help him.”
I contacted Anna to help with my son’s photography and she was brilliant.
As part of his GCSE Art portfolio, my son was working on an assessment inspired by the black and white landscape work of photographer Don McCullin.
Having taken his own photographs, he then hit a brick wall when it came to digital editing and neither his father nor I could help with the more in-depth features of Photoshop. Luckily Anna was able to come to our rescue to work with him. My son was very pleased with the final result, achieved an A grade in his GCSE and we were very grateful for her help and excellent tuition.

“Really enjoyable, really helpful.”
Anna’s knowledge, guidance and enthusiasm is helping me immensely with my photography - from learning image capture techniques, new ways of seeing, setting fun assignments to going through my results, teaching me how to edit, process, use, print and archive my pictures. Really enjoyable, really helpful.

“She has helped me get to grips with the more technical aspects of photography”
In preparation for my art foundation course, Anna’s lessons have been vital in my understanding of photography as an art form. She has helped me get to grips with the more technical aspects of photography, an area which I previously struggled with, and it is so much fun. I now feel capable of exploring my creativity with the skills Anna has given me and has my confidence with a camera in my hand has soared. She is a fantastic teacher

“I would recommend her without hesitation as a photographer teacher”
Anna’s teaching and dedicated time with our students at Lapwing has built confidence and ignited in many a sense of purpose, value and self-belief as they have learned to connect with the world around them, and with others in the group, through photography.
Her sense of fun, gentleness, flexibility, care and interest in the group as a whole, as well as each student’s individual journey with the camera, has given many of them a new passion and pride.
We would recommend her without hesitation as a photography teacher.

“…he learnt a great deal which resulted in him having an exhibition of his photography”
My son has autism and ADHD and was unable to go to college due to his needs. He has a special and unique talent in photography. Through his time with Anna, he learnt a great deal which resulted in him having an exhibition of his photography. Anna was brilliant with him and they created a special bond together and I think learnt a lot from each other during this time.
