I am thinking of doing the weekend course in intermediate portait as I have never really worked with studio equipment and I want some hands on experience/tutoring...

Any feedback from people who have been there would be greatly appreciated :)
 
Not attended any myself (yet) but have you looked at the Brook School of Photography, they are closer to you.
 
Yes I've been, I went on a 10 week course every weds evening. For portrait you'll probably have Simon and he's an excellent tutor.

Personally I thought it was worth every penny and my photography improved massively - so much I finished 5th in last years POTY comp.

Just haven't had the time this year so far to attend again, but I'll be doing the portrait course this autumn.
 
I was going to say that the portrait sessions are very good:

We had a couple of evenings of having it all explained, lighting setups etc, then on the last evening we had a model in and were left to do our own setups, shots etc. We each had the studio for a short while, then compared afterwards and repeated if needed.

I've been to a couple of the weekend courses there, well worth it. Chris was a very good tutor and took the time to explain things so that all on the course understood
