movement and light

Photographers of all experience levels, from beginners to proficient photographers. Clive will tailor his guidance to your experience, helping you build confidence with your camera or refine an established approach. If you are completely new to using your camera, let us know before booking so we can discuss the support you need.

A selection of Canon lenses and camera bodies will be available to try and share. Equipment is limited and cannot be guaranteed for every participant, so please bring your own camera and lenses, charged batteries and plenty of memory cards. Particular models cannot be guaranteed. Contact us before booking if you need to borrow equipment or would like advice on suitable lenses and memory cards. Please keep your original files and a backup.

There are six places on each day, with two elite Birmingham Royal Ballet dancers, keeping the experience attentive, practical and personal. Everyone will have the opportunity to shoot individually and as part of the group. Choose Saturday 30 or Sunday 31 January 2027. These are separate one-day workshops with the same programme; each experience price includes one day. If your preferred day is full, email us about the other date or future workshops.

The £550 workshop includes the teaching and practical sessions described above, individual guidance, dancer feedback, equipment support and a pre-workshop guide. Coffee, pastries and lunch are included. The £850 Complete Experience also includes the private two-hour one-to-one remote edit and two A3 prints described above. The £1,100 Mentored Experience includes all of this plus an additional private two-hour creative mentoring session via Microsoft Teams, covering portfolio review, visual storytelling, personal style, lighting and creative direction. Travel, parking, accommodation and personal insurance are not included.

We’ll record your preferred date and workshop option and Clive will email you when bookings open. Registering interest does not reserve a place or commit you to booking, and no payment is required. You can withdraw your interest and email consent at any time by contacting workshops@clivebooth.co.uk. If you later book, we’ll provide payment instructions, practical joining details and instructions for electronically signing the Participant Image Use Agreement before attending.

Please contact workshops@clivebooth.co.uk before booking with any access requirements, so we can check the arrangements with the venue. Coffee, pastries and lunch are included. Tell us about dietary requirements in advance so we can confirm what can be accommodated.

A laptop and EIZO 31″ reference monitor are provided, with a digital assistant to help download and select files. Bring your memory cards and keep your original photographs backed up. We will explain the review arrangements in the pre-workshop information.

Registering interest is free and creates no booking to cancel. If you later make a paid booking, a full refund is available for cancellations made 30 days or more before the workshop. The maximum cancellation charge is 50% at 15–29 days and up to 100% within 14 days, but we will not retain more than our reasonable net losses after costs saved and replacement bookings. Transfers to another photographer require prior written approval. If we cancel or make a significant change you do not accept, you may choose a refund of the affected workshop fee or an agreed alternative date. See the workshop terms for details; your statutory rights remain unaffected.
