Class Overview:
Learning the fundamentals of photography will not only help you to take photos that you’ve always envisioned but to do it confidently. Understanding how your camera works will allow you to consistently take perfectly exposed photos in any situations and allow for more creativity in your work. To do so, you need to learn how to shoot in manual mode and take informed decisions on ISO, shutter speed and aperture. Knowing what focus mode to use and how to meter in-camera to take well exposed images, are just a few of the things you need to learn to take full control. Understanding light and how it’s color (white balance) affects the end results are key principles of photography. The technical part of photography allows for more creative control and consistant results that match your vision. When the science meets the arts is when the magic happens, let me help you do that!
