Since I started my business, I have had many requests wondering if I offer any basic photography classes for parents/people to take to get better photos of their children or families in their everyday lives.

I know that many of my clients, friends, and family have DSLRs but haven’t had the time to sit down and really figure out how to use it?  Are you guilty of shooting on Auto mode, all of the time?  (you know…that little green box on the dial?)  I know that I did when I received my first DSLR.

“So now almost everyone owns a camera. Yet, of all the commonplace tools available to us, the SLR camera is propably the least understood and certainly the most under-exploited. All too frequently the average amateur will purchase a fine modern camera and proceed to use it for making the most elementary simple snapshots. This surely is like playing ‘Chopsticks’ on a concert grand piano.”

– Famous NY photographer, Sam Haskins

I thought I might offer something different; since I am 90% self-taught, I thought I’d offer “Click! photography workshops & mentoring” to those that would like to be a more serious hobbyist.

The first workshop, “It’s NOT the camera” is designed to take place in person, for approximately 3.5 hours.  It includes hands-on guidance, a curriculum that will cover the components of your camera, and the basics of understanding the ever-important exposure triangle.  You will walk away with confidence and understanding on how to take your camera off Auto mode and understand more about how to take better photographs.

***It is VERY important to note that this course will not be covering any information about starting a photography business, advanced photography, or Photoshop (or other editing programs) instruction; rather, it is focused on the everyday shooting aspect of documenting your life.  Participants must sign a non-compete agreement stating that they will not offer a similar course or start a photography business within one year of completing the course.***
