Upcoming Nikon photography classes with Steve Simon:
The Nikon Z8/Z9 Masterclass + London Street Photography Intensive: Sunday, July 13, 2025:
If you own a Nikon Z8 or Z9, this immersive London masterclass is your opportunity to finally take full control of your camera and unlock its true potential—fast. In one powerful day, you’ll master the latest features and firmware upgrades, learn how to customize your setup for speed and simplicity, and then hit the streets for a mentored shoot through some of London’s most visually rich locations. Whether you’re chasing street moments, action, or storytelling scenes, this class will sharpen your technical edge and ignite your creative confidence with the most advanced Nikon tools ever made.
Nikon Z8/Z9 Mastery Online Bootcamp (includes comprehensive coverage of 3.00 & 5.20 firmware updates): Friday, Sept 12, 2025:
From shooting modes to white balance, histograms, file formats, image review and other shortcuts to customizing your Nikon Z8/Z9 for your own unique shooting style, this online bootcamp is designed to help you take control of this amazing new tool for images you never would get without it.
You will learn technical strategies for exposure and hear Steve’s minimalist philosophy when it comes to Nikon gear. Simplify is the mantra and with a few tweaks of your Nikon Z8/Z9 your process will be transformed and the camera won’t get in the way of great images.
When technique fades to the background you can get on with the more important business of exploring the scene, finding just the right angle and following the light for maximum image impact. This class is filled with “Nikon Nuggets” that will change the way you shoot for the better. Master your gear, and your creativity will soar!.
This class is 5 hours, because there is so much to cover. Those of you who have attended my two-day Nikon workshops know this. But I’ve condensed all the most important concepts and features into this bootcamp. It’s a lot to take in but you will be able to review the online class anytime and it will be time-coded for you to fast-forward to what you need. We will schedule a 1.5 hour Post-Workshop Zoom class to go over any new questions that come up after you’ve implemented what you’ve learned in class.
