About Our Photography Instructors

Our Story

Yarnmakerboutiqu was founded in 2018 by a collective of professional photographers who shared a passion for both photography and education. After years of conducting individual workshops, we decided to combine our expertise to create a comprehensive photography education platform in Great Britain.

What began as weekend workshops in Liverpool has grown into a nationwide network of courses covering various photography disciplines. We've had the privilege of helping hundreds of photographers—from complete beginners to seasoned enthusiasts—develop their skills and creative vision.

Our mission is to deliver accessible, premium photography education that fosters creativity and technical mastery while highlighting the remarkable variety of Great Britain's landscapes and cultural heritage.
