Love taking pictures of your kids but aren’t a professional photographer?
Got a nice camera but don’t know how to use it?
Get fuzzy shots and you aren’t sure why?
Want to learn which lens you should buy?
Want to get off P mode when you are taking pictures of your kids?
If you answered yes to any of these questions then this blog post is for you…
Last Spring I offered my first Fuzzy to Focused classes and they were a huge hit. All the moms who attended and I had a great time getting to know their cameras. Since I had such a great response and ended up with a waiting list to boot I thought that I would offer them again this Fall. So if you are tired of being on P mode on your camera, want to learn more about how to work your camera, or just want better shots of your kids this is a great class for you.
What the class will include
- basic knowledge of your Digital SLR camera (so you must own one)
- general overview of aperture, shutter speeds, and ISO and a bit on the histogram
- tips on photographing your child
- some real time shooting outside to get the feel of your camera
- overview of file management and storage of your personal images
- homework assignments
- a work book for you to take home
What the class will not include
- editing (this could possibly be a whole other class)
- how to start a photography business (I do offer Professional Photography Mentoring but you must live outside of Georgia)
What you will need for the class
- a Digital SLR camera and lens ( I currently shoot Canon but have used Nikon as well- These are the two brands I recommend)
- your owner’s manual
- an editing software program of some sort to use at home for homework (Photoshop Elements is a great one)
- a fully charged battery
- pen and paper to take notes
The class will be 4 hours in length and will be held at my studio in Roswell. Water and snacks/ lunch will be served.
The cost is $200 and the class is limited to 8. I want this to be personal and I want you to be involved. If I have enough interested I will certainly schedule another class.
Here are some dates I am considering… but these are flexible so if you would like another date let me know.
September 29th 10 am – 2 pm
October 2nd, 1pm-5pm
Please contact me through my contact page or by email at agrphotography@gmail.com if you are interested and I will put you on the list.
Please note that this class is intended for moms (or dads) who want to learn more about their camera and how to take better images of their children. If you have any interest in becoming a professional photographer this is not the class for you.
