Does this sound like you?
  • You bought a fancy camera to take high-quality photos of your kids, but you still take most of your pictures in auto mode
  • You’re worried that your children are growing up too quickly and you’re missing crucial moments of their childhood with blurred photos and awkward smiles
  • You know you should read the camera manual, but it’s so boring you can’t stick with it
  • You feel intimidated by local photography classes – and you just want to learn the essential skills necessary to take better pictures
  • You want someone to show you how to use your camera without making it overly complicated

If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many parents are in the same situation. They don’t want to become professional photographers. They just want to feel proud of their family photos.

It’s much easier than you think to improve your photos

MEET VICKI KNIGHTS, PROFESSIONAL FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER & BUSY MUM

Photography doesn’t have to be a mystery.

Hi I’m Vicki, one of the UK’s leading family and child photographers and I’m also a mum to 2 boys.

I’ve been photographing families professionally for well over a decade now as well as my own lovely family. And I’ve seen it all! I know how to get gorgeous shots of wiggly, squirmy, (sometimes cranky) kids – and I can show you everything I’ve learnt along the way.

I wasn’t always an expert… My husband bought me my first “fancy” digital camera when I was pregnant with our first child. I was excited but overwhelmed. I didn’t even know where to start!

I just wanted to learn how to take great photos without spending days reading the boring manual. I even attended a few photography courses but walked out more confused than ever.

It took years for me…but it doesn’t have to take that long for you.

I spent months with my head in photography books and in forums learning how to take great photos. It took me awhile because I had to decipher all the “tech talk” and navigate this confusing world on my own.

Even though it took time, I discovered that taking beautiful photos was the best way to share my family’s story, preserve every moment (the big ones and the small ones), and express my creativity.

ANNOUNCING ‘HOW TO PHOTOGRAPH Your family’

Now you can take a workshop from me without stepping foot out of your house.

You can complete this online course in your own time. And with lifetime access, you can return to it again and again.

Not only do you get the secret hints and tips that only us pros use, you also get it from a parent who understands the challenges of photographing her children and everyday life too. (I wish a course like this existed when I was learning!)

I cannot believe the difference this course has made to my photos in such a short space of time. Vicki’s advice is clear and easy to follow and perfectly targets the likes of myself – a Mum who bought a very nice digital SLR camera to take beautiful pictures of my children but found that I couldn’t quite get the images I wanted. So I always end up using the auto setting and hoping for the best!

This course has enabled me to finally get the gorgeous portraits I have been striving for. Vicki’s own images throughout the course are beautiful and will inspire me to keep practicing! I know I will return to a number of the modules over and over when I am looking for inspiration!

Why Should You Take an Online Course?

The best moments in life happen fast. That’s why this online course keeps up with your busy life. From start to finish, the videos take under 3 hours. Want to complete the whole thing in a cafe on a Saturday morning? Go for it! Or perhaps you’d rather divide it up over 30 minutes each evening while the kids are in bed. It’s your choice….go through the course at times that suit you.

This course is so much more than an e-book. I talk you through every step you need to know to take great photos of your children. 

Remember, you have lifetime access to the course so you never “fall behind” and you can refer back to the materials whenever you need to. You can also take the course on your computer, smart phone, or tablet for maximum convenience.

Each lesson has a video where I walk you through exactly what you need to know – it’s the next best thing to me sitting next to you and showing you what do to next. You also receive a PDF manual that you can download for easy reference.

I had never undertaken an online course before and to be honest was a little apprehensive about how much I would learn but I really shouldn’t have worried!

At the end of this course, I am now confident in picking up my camera and understanding the best settings to use to get fabulous looking photos of my children. Vicki is engaging in her lectures and after each lecture, I could not wait to practice what I had learnt. I feel that this course is a must if you have a DSLR and regularly shoot on Auto and want to get off this setting and achieve results that you are proud of.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Still, have questions? Here are more details about the course.
Is this course for me?
If you are a parent who is frustrated with the photos they are taking of their children, then yes it is! The course is designed for beginners who are using their cameras in the auto mode. Lots of parents have taken my course who’ve been confused by other photography classes. When they learn from me, it suddenly all makes sense! I break everything down for you in an easy to understand way.
Can I see more of Vicki’s work?

Of course, you can see more of my work here on my family photography website.

What kind of camera do I need?
You need a camera that allows you to shoot out of auto mode, so a DSLR, bridge or modern compact camera. However even if you are just shooting with an iPhone, you’ll gain a lot of value from the modules on light, composition and what to do with your photos afterward. Click here to see my advice on what camera to buy.
Will you provide feedback on my photos?

Individual feedback isn’t included in the price of the course.

What if I get stuck on something?
The videos and PDF are easy to understand and have been tested on many other parents. As every camera model varies, you may be required to check your manual for some of the points. If you get really stuck, you can just ask in the discussion forum and I’ll do my best to help.
I’m outside of the UK, can I still take the course?
Absolutely! I am based in the South of England, but one of the reasons I wanted to create this online course was so I could help parents worldwide to take better photos. The price is in GBP but the payment processor will convert it to your own currency.
Can I buy the course and share it with my friend?
I’m afraid not. Each purchase is only applicable to one household. So you and your other half can take the course together no problem, but you can’t share your log-in details or the PDF manual with anyone else.
What do I need to watch the course videos?
As long as you have a computer, iPad or smart phone then you can take the course. You do need a fairly strong broadband signal but as long as you can watch the video at the top of this page then you’ll be fine.
What if I don’t see any difference in my photos?
I’m so confident that you’ll see an improvement in your photos that I offer a 30-day money back guarantee. So if you feel like you haven’t seen any change in your photos, you can get a full refund so you have nothing to lose!
I have another question you haven’t answered.
Great! You can contact me here to ask any questions you may have.

A really well-organised course that was perfect for me. I’ve had a ‘flashy’ camera for a while and haven’t known how to take a photo outside of the auto setting. This course has changed my photography for the better! I now know how to take photos with the blurry background and my photos of our kids are 100 times better than they were before. Vicki has a great way of explaining things in a simple, straightforward manner that is very easy to understand and put into practice. I would hugely recommend this course to others.
