Cullercoats Village
Cullercoats is my closest village and it is full of history and interesting streets, buildings and artwork. It's one of the most interesting fishing villages along the North Tyneside coastine.
The walk takes us from the Metro station, through some of my favourite streets. This walk really makes you look at things differently and encourages you to frame your image and search out interesting shapes, reflections and encourages you to find more creative images. We will aim to finish up around the Watch House, and if time allows (and tide) we can explore the Smugglers Caves.

Thanks to Rachael Young for this photo of us....
WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING WITH YOU:
1. Your camera - that is ESSENTIAL - whatever you are familiar using. I am not a camera technician so please have a good understanding of all the functions, or at least an idea of how to use your camera.
2. Snacks and drinks, and any medication such as inhalers or epi-pens.
3. Walking clothes and sturdy walking shoes
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT ON THE WALK:
1. Chat, conversation and a friendly and safe environment to walk with other photography enthusiasts who are looking to share ideas and learn new things. It doesn't matter what level you are at.
2. To enjoy yourself and learn some new skills to improve your photography and hopefully get you out of 100% manual.

Disclaimer:
The walks will be along mainly pavements, but we might go on sand and over rocks to the caves, so have appropriate footwear. I would recommend you have a purpose designed camera bag to keep your equipment safe, ad wear clothing that will enable you to sit or kneel, if you are able. Sometimes the ground can be wet and muddy if we've had a lot of rain. I will only cancel the event if it is pouring with rain, or we have had a deluge and the pathways are too slippy. Each walk will have its own Risk Assessment.
The walks will be around 2 hours duration, although we will be stopping quite a bit on our route. It will only be about 2-3km of actual walking. Bring bottled water to keep hydrated, and if you have any allergies, please advise me and bring with you your inhaler or epi-pen. I am a qualified First Aider, so can offer immediate assistance, but we will not be near a hospital for emergency care.
​
I do have Public Liability Insurance, but please note that you are responsible for your own safety and equipment on this walk, but I will do all I can to make sure it is fun, educational and safe!
​
Cancellation policy:
If you are a no-show on the day it will incur 100% loss of the total booking fee of £8.
If you advise me you cannot attend within 48 hours of the booking, I will transfer you to a new date.
No refunds are given once booking confirmed unless I cancel the event for a personal reason.
If I have to cancel due to awful (eg. storms/torrential rain) weather, then I will move the session to a new date.
