Your camera can do so much more than Auto. Let's learn it together, one setting at a time.
TentativeDate, time, and location are pending final confirmation.
We'll go slow, and you can ask as many questions as you want.
How direct sun, overcast skies, open shade, and deep shade each look, and how to use them.
Explained in plain English. No math class required.
How to get that soft, blurry background, or keep everything sharp when you need to.
What it does, and when it's okay to turn it up.
How to freeze motion and keep your photos from turning out blurry from camera shake.
You'll practice with your own camera, and I'll give you feedback the whole time.
