If you’re interested in photography and taking beautiful or creative photographs it’s essential to know your equipment, and how it works. Learn how to take better photographs by taking control of your camera’s exposure in this 1-hour online course. In this course we’ll cover the following through over an hour of video lectures, downloadable outlines, and assignments that reinforce:

Exposure (shutter, aperture, and ISO)
Metering, and metering modes
Shooting checklist to know what to do and when

Students will best learn when they take as little as a week to go through the lectures, outlines, and assignments. We recommend taking anywhere from 1 to 4 weeks to complete this course.

Students benefit from taking this course by engaging with the material, and putting it in to practice with their DSLR or digital rangefinder cameras. In doing so they will learn to how the camera “sees light,” how to communicate their creative goals, and dial in the appropriate settings to reach these creative goals, which all leads to better exposed and more creative photographs. Students also benefit from engaging in their learning with peers, and are encouraged to participate in peer-to-peer learning by introducing themselves and starting discussions in the question area.

Christine, the instructor, gives over an hour of video lectures, based on her nearly 10 years in the professional wedding photography and portrait industry. She is available by the contact form for any questions students may have and responds to questions on a weekly basis.
