Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Sarah is very knowledgeable and shares her expertise & knowledge of photography in a fun and lighthearted manner. I would thoroughly recommend the iPhone photography course - my husband and I learnt a lot and feel more confident taking photos after Sarah’s course. Sarah creates a relaxed and friendly environment and provides hands on guidance during the session.

Prior to this course I have had a camera for a few months and had barely got it out of auto mode. This course has really set me up with all the understanding and tools to really progress with my photography. It was such an informative and enjoyable day out around Sydney. Sarah is such a patient and helpful teacher and I highly recommend this course.

I thought that I knew about Smartphone photography; but I was amazed just how much I got from doing this course. Not only did I learn lots about using my iPhone for photos, but Sarah also imparted lots on information on composing a photo including lighting, framing, levelling, using reflections, and so much more. The course also included really useful information on photo editing.
It was also great to spend an afternoon wandering through Sydney's iconic Rocks precinct.
This is a great course for locals and visitors to Sydney.

Thank you so much for writing such a glowing review of our smartphone photography course. Lovely to meet you both and glad you picked up a few tips on using your iPhone camera as well as composition of an image, and you enjoyed some of the lesser known Sydney locations around The Harbour. You took some really great shots on the course as shown in the photos you have posted. Have fun practising. Many thanks, Sarah

I bought this as a birthday present for my sister who lives in Sydney and thought it would be a great way to sightsee and encourage my sister with her photography ambitions. I was right!
Had a great day and was surprised to meet so many other brits.
The course was fun and I have some photographs in my collection now that I could never have taken prior to this course.
My sister is now talking about taking another course, so huge thanks, Sarah for a great day and a fun way to learn new photography skills.

I have previously done a half-day and full-day beginner's course with Sarah which gave me a good understanding on the basic skill set required on manual photo-shooting. Did an intermediate course again with Sarah over the weekend and that was a really good refresher on what I have learnt and through the hands-on workshop I could compare the photos I took and see the difference when you change one of ISO, shutter speed or aperture. What I value the most is Sarah is able to explain her wealth of knowledge in a very logical way for me to understand and put into practice. Thumbs up for her good work and appreciate her effort.

It was a lovely experience to get out and see Sydney with one of the locals best. You can tell she's dedicated herself to her class and I really learned a lot. Very engaging with all the students and made the course fun and enjoyable. I will probably go back for the intermediate course if I find time. 10/10 recommend.

I highly recommend Sarah's Essential Photography
Course for Beginner Photographers. I started with no knowledge of how to use my SLR camera to walking away feeling confident in my ability to use my camera on manual setting. Sarah is warm & friendly, creating a great atmosphere to learn from her wealth of knowledge. I can't recommend this course enough!

Thank you Alex for your wonderful review of your experience of our 1-Day Photography course around Sydney. Much appreciated, as is your recommendation. It was lovely to meet you and glad you not only enjoyed the day but you now feel more confident on using your camera's manual settings. Your shallow depth of field flower photos you posted here from the course are excellent. And the black and white city shot viewpoint is also great. Have fun practising. Thanks Sarah

This course was fantastic. I did the half day and learned loads. Sarah explained things in an easy way to understand. I have not had a camera for about 20 years so went in with zero skills. I now feel confident to get out there with my new camera.
I'd highly recommend one of Sarah's courses. I'd done a lot of hunting around to see where I wanted to do my course. Sarah had great reviews. And I can say from experience that I agree with all the great reviews.

We are hoping to book one of your courses for next week. The weather forecast is for rain...... Do you cancel the course if it rains heavily? How do you organise the course/where do you go in the rain?

Hi Anne
You didn't say which course next week - I'm assuming you are looking at booking The Essentials 1 day photography course on 24th May?? The current forecast is for sun, cloud and rain showers - not heavy rain and it is a long way off as they often get the forecast wrong even on the day. Please look at the course booking form page on SignaturePhoto website re if it rains on the day and also info about the course on Essentials page on website , The course goes ahead if rain showers as there are places to shoot undercover on the course. The course on 24th May includes VIVID night shooting and will go ahead regardless. . If it is the Essentials course on 24th may you are interested in booking then suggest you make booking asap as there are only 2 places left for this course date as popular - there are still places left for 27th May and 30th May. Thanks Sarah
