Photography for beginners

A robust course for those wanting to get their photography on the right foot & off to creating beautiful, compelling, story telling images

Let’s get real for a second, friend

Starting your photography journey can be intimidating, the gear options, setting up your camera for success, learning your settings for a well orchestrated shot, and then the editing. So where do you start? 

WELL, YOU SEE—I FELT THE SAME WAY.

When I first started my journey, I had no idea how to operate my camera. When I started learning manual mode it was (and is) it's very own language. I was scared to start, I didn't have a mentor and prior to getting a nice professional DSLR I was only a hobbyist with film! I dove in, learned every button, setting & what it all meant. That was 13 years ago! As my skills have progressed, I have taken my own share of courses, mentored with some of the best in the industry, I have taught so many beginners who are now successful business owners with beautiful art, I decided to finally step into the online space and offer digital courses to those all over! 

You are creative.
What you photograph has meaning.
You are authentic.
You can—and will—become successful in this craft.

It starts with the right visuals.

This is about you learning, growth & understanding the basics to becoming a pro. Learning the rules, so you can break them like an artist. 

Are you getting excited yet?

Introducing

Photography for beginners

Four Modules, all in depth, all there for you to refer to again and again to set you up for success. That is what I want for you! To grow into an artist you are proud of. There are so many photographers who won't share their “secrets” or their ways. That isn't what we do here. That isn't my way, I want to guide you, help you and celebrate in each moment of success you have! 

Let’s take a look at what’s inside

 

01

Camera Set up

So you have a new camera, or maybe an old one & you want to get out of auto mode. This is your guide to manual mode. I walk you through what settings your camera should be in to set you up for successful creation! 

02

Camera Settings

But what does it all mean? ISO, Aperture, Shutter speed. What they do, tips to get it right & in depth into how to use these settings for the best outcome! 

03

composition & framing

While settings are important, an image isn't compelling without great framing & composition. This course will get you headed in the right direction with how to frame your shot. From leading lines, rule of thirds & more. 

04

Lighting

This course gets you started on understanding lighting, the most important part of photography. There is a follow up course to this module releasing in the next couple months, but for now this will help you to start understanding how light works & how to manipulate it. 

Memories, it is why you picked up your camera. 

Photos are a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone — isn't it special you get to give the gift of memories?

Fourteen years ago I was using film, from a early age I had a camera in my hand. It was always a passion of mine to photograph every little thing. Nine years go I took it to another level and started a business. Upgrading all my gear. Teaching myself the rules, Soaking up every form of help, signing up for every mentor session i could find. But, one thing that no one ever helped me with was my camera, basic settings etc. So going into some of these mentor programs I struggled to keep up. I was always a step behind. So when I decided to educate other photographers, I promised myself Id alway make sure they were prepped with basic knowledge before jumping in to the more complicated parts of photography. We all start somewhere, and this industry, although it feels saturated, there is room for everyone!
