Manual Mode 

If you’re trying to figure out where to start, this is the class! Manual Mode is a 4-week, online class for beginning to intermediate photographers who want to use their camera beyond auto mode and consistently achieve good exposure. In language that you can understand, we’ll learn about fancy terms like aperture, ISO, and exposure so you can capture the photos you want! We’ll learn what the exposure triangle is and why it’s critical. There’s no need to be “in class” at any specific time because you check in when it’s convenient for you, whether it be during nap time, weekends or after the kids are tucked in.

Beyond Manual 

This 4-week class is the follow up to the Manual Mode class. If you’re already shooting in manual mode and getting good exposure in the majority of photos it’s time to move on. In this class we’ll learn all about focus and light. I want you to nail your focus in all your photos, and I’ll show you how! And I want you to know how to read the light in a space and use it to your advantage. Like all my classes, there’s no need to be “in class” at any specific time. You check in when it’s convenient for you, and I’ll be there the whole time to walk you through each step. Click HERE for all the class details.
