In addition to providing a photo stock library of images for reproduction, we can also provide daytime or evening presentations on the Hebrides. Whilst these are primarily aimed at camera clubs and photographic societies, they may also be of interest to other clubs and organisations such as U3A. We prefer to provide shows within the Home Counties to minimise travelling, but would be prepared to consider venues further afield.
We can also accept short notice bookings e.g. 6 hours, if free.
These shows are personally presented by Ruari Cumming, ARPS who holds a distinction from the Royal Photographic Society (RPS). He is also an accredited judge with the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (PAGB). He has taken all the pictures used & creates these 2 hour shows with great care and dedication. As a professional photographer, a reasonable charge is made for personally presenting the shows, based on a fixed fee plus mileage related travel expenses in-line with PAGB rates. All you have to supply is a digital projector & screen - we provide the rest.
The shows available at present are:-
An Eye on the
Hebrides
