I’m Simon Ellingworth, I’m a 17 x international award-winning photographer and educator who delivers a wide range of interactive zoom workshops for the Royal Photographic Society.

I deliver in-person workshops on the Streets of London, Bath and Weston-Super-Mare.

I specialise in street, available light portraiture, composition, gestalt theory and black and white photography.

They say that you’re as good as your last review, so let’s start there. Here’s the last of my 30 x 5 star google reviews from this year by an RPS member describing a zoom workshop:

During my workshops I like to challenge people’s thinking, change the way they see the world, and provide technical liberation from their camera with simple new ways and techniques to craft compelling images through a lens.

 As well as my own practice I have provided workshops for over 10 years at the RPS, and have had 1,000’s of happy students, the majority who start on one of my one day workshops then progress onto one of my artist development programmes which deep dive into developing them into better photographers.  

My workshops are also about expanding people’s creative community, and students more often than not start on a short course  and progress through my more in depth workshops together which forms supportive friendships which helps each other in their learning journey

"Your course has blown me away!"

“Your course has blown me away. I have learnt so much. I have enjoyed the clear structure of each lesson. It’s given me a great framework to work with. I like the idea that you can create photos from fairly ordinary situations.I like the idea of making decisions of what to include/leave out & understanding why this could lead to a better photo.”

– Jane, 2022.

"You are a True Pro!"

It is a huge commitment to produce a course like that and I am really so impressed with the materials and content – you are a ‘true pro’, a great educator and I am sure we all appreciate the quality that is delivered.”

– Brian, 2022.

"The gift of Technical Liberation"

“For the first time in a decade of photography, you’ve made me see the world diffrently and  given me the greatest gift any photographer can recive – technical libaration!

I’ve finally discovered where I was going wrong all these years and what really makes a compelling image. Thank you.”

– David, 2022.

"I'd highly recommend"

“I have found your workshops extremely informative and I have learnt a lot. I would highly recommed. The most valuable learning point was the structure of the workshop i.e. splitting it up into 6 topics. This has helped me focus on the essential elements of street photography. It was also very helpful in having so many relevant images for each topic”

– John, 2022.

"A very engaging tutor"

“The workshop was excellent – I wouldn’t change a thing. The content was brilliant with lots of variety and pace and Simon is a very engaging tutor, which resulted in good participation and discussion. I learnt a lot.”

– Alison, 2022.
