The right tools to achieve your photographic dreams!

What You'll Learn

This course is broken into two sections. First I’ll take you through all the basics of the camera, how to choose your camera gear, all the basics of exposure and manual camera settings, as well as travel photography, portraiture, and fashion photography.

In the second half, we will take this knowledge and use it in practical exercises.

Knowing how to attack different styles of photography will help you find your own unique voice and area of interest.

Hear what photographers have to say…

  • “I have used two or three on-line classes in the past for various photography applications but this series is without a doubt the best I have seen. It is very comprehensive, easily understood and uses very practical examples which you can, in turn, try yourself as you work your way through the course. And unlike many others, it doesn’t assume that you have an arsenal of equipment at your beck and call. With Matt and Tina’s usual humorous bent, it really is a joy to work through each session. There is a lot of material here for the price. I would highly recommend it.”

    - Doug
