Virtual Beginner's Photography Class using an iPhone or DSLR
We are holding our signature Beginner's Photography Class online. Learn how to use your camera manually in 2.5 hours. No camera needed.
Become a better photographer in just 1 class! Have you ever wondered why, after spending hundreds of dollars on the latest cameras, you still can't get photos that really make you proud? We're not talking about the party snapshots you post on Instagram, but stunning, well-exposed landscapes that can be considered fine art.
This 2.5-hour class is a crash course in digital photography. You will learn what all those knobs and dials on your DSLR do, the optimal settings to use in any lighting condition, and what kind of camera to buy if you don't already have one. You will understand concepts like exposure, aperture, depth of field, ISO and shutter speed. Our goal is for you to never want to use the "automatic mode" again. We will teach you only the best tips and tricks with your iPhone, as well.
No prior experience or camera equipment is necessary to attend. You just need a desire to improve your photography skills. Take this class for yourself or gift it to a friend who's got a photography itch to scratch. We will keep the class small so every questions will be answered.
This course is available for "remote" learning and will be available to anyone with access to an internet device with a microphone (this includes most models of computers, tablets). Classes will take place with a "Live" instructor at the date/times listed below.
Upon registration, the instructor will send along additional information about how to log-on and participate in the class.
Merchant cancellation/re-scheduling policy of 2 business days applies; voucher subject to forfeiture.
In the event that an instructor or the school needs to cancel at the last minute, students will receive a refund less a 5% non-refundable registration fee.
