Come join us and learn the basics of photography. This course will teach you how to take the photograph that you want to by studying the exposure triangle and how it works. We will be focusing on DSLR and Mirrorless camera functionality and settings, proper lighting, and correct tripod usage. There will be classroom instruction as well as a field trip. Classroom instruction will include proper settings, photo composition, and editing using Adobe Lightroom. Our final class will either be a field trip (depending on weather) or some fun, in class, photography. If you already have a DSLR or Mirrorless camera, bring it to class! A camera is not required to take this class, but it sure makes it easier!
