First off… take a deep breath, really, it’s ok. You are taking the first step into truly understanding photography. I’ve been there and so has every photographer before you. It’s a learning process that’ll take some time and effort, but will open your eyes to a whole heap of new abilities in photography you’ll soon have at your fingertips.
Been shooting in automatic modes for years hoping your pictures turnout ok? Just turning the camera on and clicking away without a thought going into… Show more how that photo is being made? There are all kinds of funky symbols and dials that you don’t touch, modes you don’t shoot in cause you don’t have a clue what they do. But… you’re tired of that. You want to take the next step, learn photography the right way, and take consistently great pictures. This workshop will take very beginner and amateur photographers to a level where they can capture consistent, quality pictures and make money in photography (if you so desire). Learn what the camera is doing to make a photograph, take control of your camera, take fantastic pictures every time. This is more than just a photography 101 class. Not only will you learn how to work a camera and understand the science behind the capture, you’ll go out and shoot real world situations along side Matt, applying newly learned concepts as well as troubleshooting on-location lighting problems. Understand the properties of the light you are capturing, how to manipulate light and best take advantage of environments. Learn basic photo editing tips, what equipment to buy and what to avoid, and learn how to read your environment to maximize photo potential.
This workshop will teach you photography from the ground up. YouÃll come out of this workshop with the knowledge and confidence to tackle serious clients.
