Let's get you started making beautiful photographs! Cameras are pretty smart these days, but let's build your skills so you can shoot in Manual Mode and have full control of how your images turn out. I've used all kinds of cameras and different brands, but the fundamentals are all the same.
Lesson Formats:
- I could coach you through a photoshoot via Zoom or FaceTime.
- We could discuss the functions available on your camera, while you sit at home.
- We could review images you've already shot, check the camera settings, and see where things could improve... while you sit at home.
- Or something else, customized to your abilities and goals.
My first job behind a camera was with a Santa Claus business in 1997, using Polaroids. It was silly, but it got me interacting with my subjects/models and it built my skills to get it right on the first try. I kept pursuing photography as a hobby, until I started my photo business in 2014. Now I shoot portraits, headshots, fine art, landscapes, architecture, long exposures, astrophotography, travel, sports, street photography and more.
I also offer lessons on Photoshop and Lightroom to help process your digital images.
