Photography Basics

A four-part photography lesson for those just getting started, as well as those looking to improve their photography skills.

A four-session course designed to provide the basics of both exposure and composition in photography.

The first half will cover how light works in terms of exposure, and how you can use the three foundational elements of exposure to create the image you want. 

The second half will cover the basics of composition – how you set your subject within the frame – and how to use specific methods to create the most visually pleasing images possible.

Each session will consist of classroom time going over the concepts, and outdoor time, where you will put what you’ve learned to use.

DSLR camera with manual mode required.
