How to use your Camera and the Basic Principles of Photography

Our most popular beginner's course for teaching How to use your Camera and the basic principles of Photography.
​
Within this session we will use your camera's semi automatic and manual modes to take photos with sharp backgrounds, blurred backgrounds, to get fun light trail photos, to show movement and to get crisp, 'frozen' photos of moving subjects.

We will also cover the following points which are so important for creative control when practising in Photography:

• Shutter Speed
• Aperture
• ISO
• White Balance 
• Lens Markings
• Camera Buttons and Functions
• Depth of Field
• Capturing Movement (frozen and blurred)
• How Auto Mode Limits Creativity
• Exposure Basics

The session duration is 3 hours, you will receive worksheets to reinforce your learning and we will learn at your pace. This session is taught as a one to one session but can be modified for a group if you have friends who would like to attend also. The session fee is £85 and includes all pre-planning, worksheets, the session itself and any communications before and after the session.
