Join us for a walking photography workshop in Runcorn! The workshop will introduce different approaches to architectural photography, using a range of techniques. Assistance with your cameras/devices/phones will be provided. The workshop is open to all levels, age and backgrounds. Equipment not supplied (please bring a camera or phone).

The workshop will be led by Kevin Crooks. Kevin Crooks is St. Helens based Photographer, Videographer and Oral History Recordist who won the Deutsche Bank Award for Creative Enterprise in 2016 after completing an MA in Photography at the University of Central Lancashire.

Kevin is a socially engaged practitioner who utilises appropriate forms of media, including photography, video and sound to produce projects which reflect upon and document aspects of social and spatial mobility, the post-industrial environment and the politics of community.

His work has been commissioned and exhibited by several arts organisations and galleries including Open Eye Gallery, St. Helens Borough Council, Heart of Glass and Artlink and has produced numerous publications including ‘M62: The Transpennine Motorway’, a photographic monograph released by Tide Press.

Kevin is currently Head of Photography at Carmel College.
