You will learn how to properly care for and operate a DSLR/Mirrorless digital camera. You will learn how to properly expose each photo using  ISO, aperture and shutter speed. 

You will learn how to make your photos visually interesting to your viewer, using techniques such as perspective, natural framing, leading lines, and avoiding tangents. 

You will learn how to handle multiple lighting situations including the best time to shoot, and how to handle uneven lighting.  You will learn how to style and group objects together. You will have the chance to bring items from home to photograph inside on a white poster board (creating flatlays) and outside styled on a stool/small table. 

You will learn the basic portrait photography techniques including directing and posing, flattering lighting, choosing locations and setting up various scenes. You will have the opportunity to practice photographing each other which is always an interesting experience on both sides.

I will be going over basic editing techniques in Lightroom. You can download a free trial of this program right before our class. If you choose to purchase a subscription to this program it's $10/mo. If you choose to use another editor, the same basic principles will apply. You will need a laptop for this lesson so that you can practice.
