Workshop for Beginners

Do you have a new DSLR camera? Or a camera that you know has so many options you just dont know where to start? Are you shooting in aperture priority but your images arent coming out the way you want? Do people tell you that you take great pictures but you want to be better? Introduction Photography Workshops starts at the very beginning. We start by teaching you the basics of the camera functions, then we get to the fun hands-on training part! After a small information session, well take you out on a photo safari for hands-on learning. Well answer all your questions as you start applying your new introduction photography knowledge in the field. Well provide the models and the amazing locations, you provide the energy and your own camera to this awesome Introduction Photography Workshop! 

The goal for the Intro workshop is to get you comfortable with you camera and shooting in manual mode. The first hour of this 4-5 hour workshop is going over those seemingly daunting camera settings you have heard about but do not know how to use. We explain everything with visuals in an open question environment. A minimum of 1  professional is within arms length to help you get your camera prepared for manual shooting. We like to make it as close to a one-on-one session as we can. At the end of the lecture we roam the outdoor classroom, the beautiful Garden, and turn words to action while photographing. The professionals will walk you through their cameras manual settings and explain different types of lighting. This is a great opportunity to shoot as much as you want and explore your cameras settings while having the guidance of professionals close by. You are in the right spot!
