New to your camera and not sure where to start? This six-week course is built for absolute beginners who want to stop relying on “Auto” mode and actually understand what their camera is doing. You’ll learn the fundamentals in plain language: how exposure works, how to read and use light, how to compose a stronger photo, and how to start editing your images with confidence. Each session pairs short, friendly instruction with hands-on practice using real-world subjects — sunsets, flowers, portraits, and food — so you leave every class having actually used what you learned. No experience required, no expensive gear required. Just bring your camera and a willingness to try.
What You Will Gain:
· Confidence getting off Auto mode and understanding your camera’s basic controls
· A working sense of how light changes a photo, and how to use it instead of fighting it
· Simple, repeatable composition habits that instantly make your photos look more intentional
· Hands-on practice photographing people, flowers/details, food, and outdoor light (sunsets)
· A beginner-friendly editing workflow using free tools you already have (phone or Lightroom Mobile)
· The ability to look at your own photos and know what to fix next time
