You Can Learn Photography

Everyone has a reason for picking up a camera. Although the reasons vary, all share a common goal: they want their images to “look awesome.” Regardless of the photos you want to make, you must be capable in a couple of areas before impressive photos begin to show up consistently: ONE, knowing how to use a camera, and TWO, understanding how to put pictures together.

Answering the call, the Beginner Photography Series is a modular course that seamlessly blends the technical and expressive aspects of using a camera. Whether new, stuck on AUTO, or ready to grow creatively, the Beginner Series offers a lot to enthusiasts and budding pros.

Photography Classes That Inspire

Learning how to use a camera is more challenging than many people realize. With all the hype and misinformation about learning “pro” photography on the weekend, it’s no wonder people think using a camera is easy—until they try. Brief introductions are OK but only point out the way, giving you just enough information to “be dangerous.” But you want more than that with your photography.

The Beginner Series offers a refreshing approach to camera operation and image composition. Each course consists of four weekly in-person sessions with practice assignments and a group outing. No boring lectures here; classes are small and limited to only ten seats to encourage interaction, clarify the material, and address questions.

Oh yeah, and you’ll have a great time.
Photography is FUN when you know what you’re doing with a camera.
