Events

Event and lecture management.

‘Architects often have a strong interest in photography, yet some lack the confidence to capture architecture through a camera. I was invited to the workshop led by Tim and Lorna at the YY building and initially hesitated, assuming it would be aimed at professionals. I had no equipment of my own, but I was reassured that an iPhone would be perfectly fine…so I decided to go. I’m very glad I did. The day was well structured, offering a welcome chance to “slow down” and thoughtfully observe a building both in use and in detail. The event was relaxed, informative, and enjoyable. I particularly valued learning from Tim during the final crit session, where we were able to see just how impressive everyone’s photographs were.’
