"We bought our camera when our children were born so we could document their lives – but have only ever used the camera on its automatic setting. The camera course has given me the confidence to explore my camera and experiment with it on different settings. The take home information has also been brilliant to refer back to with lots of short cuts and top tips. I can’t wait to get out and use my camera more."

I have been on a number of Lillie’s photography trips both in Tuscany and the UK, most recently to Scarborough in North Yorkshire. All are meticulously planned and locations scouted in advance so nothing is left to chance. Subject matters vary from street photography to landscapes, sun rises (for the brave) to sun sets with a few surprise locations thrown in. Lillie is ably assisted by her friend Charlie Mitford and the trips are not just educational, but convivial and often entertaining. For those looking to learn more about their camera but also up for a good time I cannot recommend them highly enough!

"We chose Lillie as our photographer as we wanted some photographs that were natural, taken out in the open, and a session that wouldn’t stress the family out too much. We were not disappointed! She made us feel totally at ease and had the patience of a Saint with the kids (they loved the Haribo on the camera!), as a result the photographs we have are just what we wanted – a memory of a morning of fun. The service didn’t stop after the photographs are taken either – Lillie was fantastic helping us chose which photographs to frame and suggesting what went well with what. Thank you."

"Thank you so much for the photo shoot of my boys, I’m over the moon with my pictures. You managed to capture their little smiles and big personalities in a moment for us to keep forever:) x"

"I couldn’t leave it without saying a huge thank you to you and Charlie for a really informative, enjoyable and relaxing course. It certainly gave me lots to think about. We had great company, delicious food and probably more information than my brain could consume!"

"Thank you for such a fun day. You made us all feel so relaxed and the kids loved working with you! (Managing, directing and capturing the spirits of three young children is not easy, but you did it!) And, wow, the pictures are fantastic – now found throughout the house! Thank you Lillie!"

"Thank you so much for organising and running such a brilliant photography holiday in Tuscany last week. I had the most amazing time, thanks to the time and effort both you and Charlie put into the week.  I loved all the activities and the chance to try taking such a variety of photographs and it made such a difference having Charlie’s local knowledge and ability to speak fluent Italian.  I still can’t quite believe how much we packed into every day.  Getting back to work has been a real shock to the system!"

"Thank you very much for your time and patience with us on the day. I know we jumped round all over the place and we were asking the impossible but your tips really did help."

"Just a quick note to you and Charlie and Daniel to say thank you for a great few days. Even as a non-photographer, I had a great time! Arezzo, the island and then the ancient apartment were the highlights for me. But the whole trip was fab."

"It was such fun to meet you and have my lesson today. I loved the no-nonsense and ‘let’s make it easy’ approach. So many professional photographers almost seem to rejoice in mystifying their art and while I’m sure there are loads of things that are very much beyond a jobbing photographer like me, it was just great to have so many of the basic things explained in clear terms and with patience and lots of memory aids. Just to sort out what buttons do what was fantastic. You are a very good teacher."

"Photography course with Lillie on Monday night was brilliant. Best start for a beginner with a digital camera. Who’d have thought it’s better on the manual setting!!!?"

"The organisation was fantastic, the locations were superb and your photography tuition excellent. However, I know that I still have a long way to go before I see the compositional opportunities that you spot in a split second!"

"I had a wonderful time in Cortona. This is a great course for all levels. It was relaxed and fun with plenty of lovely food and wine from the local area.  The group was a great mix of people from all walks of life. We had plenty of time to play around with different settings on our cameras as well as visiting some very interesting places in and around the local area, which has a very rich history."

"Thank you again for putting together such a fun packed and informative 5 days. I'll get back to sorting my shots out - there seem to be a huge number!"
