How It Works

These one-on-one photography lessons are designed to be your own personal photography workshop.

You can sign up for one class if that's all you need, or take a series of classes to build your skills.

Each class comes with a set of PDF notes, often tailored to the camera you're using.

Simply choose which class you'd like to take and we'll book a time that works for you!

I'm here as your personal photography teacher.

Meet the Teacher

I'm Mat!

I have been obsessed with photography since I was ten.

My first 'real' camera was a borrowed Canon Rebel that I used for the yearbook.

After working as a school portrait photographer for a couple of years, I launched Acorn and Oak Family Photography.

As I saw others struggle with their photography, I realized I had a wealth of knowledge and experiences to share. That's when I made it my mission to take the best of what I've learned and teach it to others.
