Get together with other passionate photographers like yourself by running your own photography workshop. Share your skills so beginners and pros can learn from you.
But having your own photography workshop can become overwhelming. You might start to forget to have fun and enjoy the process.
Here are some tips that can remind you of the important things you need to prepare:
1. Drive people’s interest
Get people to know you’re holding a photography workshop! Drive people’s interest in any way you can.
If you have an active audience on your social media, use that to your advantage. Often post about your photography workshop.
Tell a friend or a family member. They can promote your photography workshop to other people.
Tell people what your photography workshop will cover. You can also talk about the perks or skills that students to get them more interested.
2. Decide on a number of students you can manage
Having a large number of students may give you more profit. If that’s what you want from your photography workshop then go ahead.
But if you want your photography workshop to be intimate and small, keeping the number below 10 will do. A small audience will likely give you more time to focus on each individual.

Deciding on a number of students you can manage is important. Still, maintaining the quality and ensuring that your students will have a great experience shouldn’t be forgotten as well.
3. Get a permit for your location
Always make sure that you get a permit for the location you’re going to use. For instance, you will need a permit if you want to teach nature photography to kids at a national park. You wouldn’t want your photography workshop to be interrupted because you don’t have a permit.
It may take a couple of weeks to get approval. So ask for a permit ahead of your photography workshop in case you have to take care of other things such as insurance.
4. Have an online registration platform
Instead of having each student contact you through a phone call or email to register, have a platform where they can sign up easily. This can save a lot of your time.
Why complicate the registration process when you can simplify it? You don’t have to manually write down the details of each student. Have an online registration platform for your photography workshop.
Many platforms are available for you to use including allphotographycourses. All you need to do is sign up and include a few details about your workshop. Students will know what to bring, the location of your workshop and, of course, the schedule.
5. Stay in touch with your students
Stay in touch with your students even when your photography workshop has ended. You can create a chat group, a Facebook group or your own community.
Students who stick with you will likely take another of your photography workshop. You can also ask for feedback so that you can improve your next workshop. Other than that, you will be creating a network of people who are passionate about photography in your area.
