Jane Lazenby BA Hons, ASEA, SAAPA, QTFE2, UKCPS, LRPS, BPE3*, CPAGB, LMPA, EFIAP
Working with Textures – This is a NOT to be missed Workshop Seeing is Believing


Jane will answer all questions, what and how to do when working with Textures, sourcing and creating textures is explained with simplicity and clarity, how to use blend modes, with 3 different methods of how to successfully apply textures to an image.
A limited number delegates will be invited to submit images via email for a live edit, Jane will take between 3-5 images then travel slowly and clearly through the technical aspects, happily repeating steps if requested and applying textures from her own stock to create final Master Pieces, giving narrative every click on a transformation journey.
Jane believes that seeing the process happen ‘for real’ is extremely valuable for delegates
Phil Savoie


Phil was at the BBC Natural History Unit until 1994 and was a producer/director/cameraman. He has a photography obsession and has travelled the globe fulfilling his dream
Phil’s ‘Up your Photography’ DPI lecture covers topics not found in most photo lectures from the science of our vision to understanding resolution and lens optics, the psychology of perspective and the odd BBC Natural History Unit war story. In short everything but the kitchen sink from a 40-year pro with 2 graduate degrees in imaging. It is told with local images covering all genres from macro to landscape, sport, wildlife, street, people and astrophotography – it has something of interest for all photographers. Throughout Phil shares novel and hard-won tips that will allow members to improve and inspire their results straight away
David Keep ARPS, DPAGB, ABPE, AFIAP


David is an award-winning photographer with a distinct style of image which packs a punch and emphasises the subject. After leaving full-time employment in 2015 he joined a local camera club and has never looked back: “The club structure in the UK is a wonderful resource for anyone looking to develop their photography – the help and encouragement I’ve received has been outstanding.” He unashamedly describes himself as a competition photographer and his images are produced with the necessary impact needed to create an immediate impression with judges – this has brought him success in numerous national and international competitions.
However, his greatest love is underwater photography and it’s a passion that’s taken him all around the world photographing the amazing creatures that swim in our oceans
