If you love taking photos but aren’t always happy with the results, this relaxed, hands-on workshop will show you how to edit everyday snapshots into images you’re proud to share. Over 3.5 hours, we’ll use your phone’s built-in tools and Snapseed to fix common issues and develop your own style.
You’ll learn how to see what an image needs, using a simple approach:

2. Enhance the mood and style using filters and other tools.
You’ll practise through fun, practical exercises, with step-by-step demos and plenty of time for questions. You’ll leave with the confidence to edit any photo beautifully — whether it’s food, people, travel, or everyday moments.
