Composite Photography Course
George Fairbairn will be bringing his 'Making the Impossible, Possible'
seminar to Surrey on the 1 July 2014, Kent on the 2 July 2014 and to
Cambridgeshire on the 3 July 2014.
George will be teaching photographers how pose and light subjects for a
composite image, then he will move on to photographing backgrounds and
compiling the images in Photoshop to output the final image.
These practical hands on seminars are limited on space, so booking early
