Beginners Photography Class
Saturday 01 April
Balboa Park - 9:30am - 3 Hours
This class is designed to give you a solid understanding of the fundamental basics of
photography; the nuts and bolts stuff that will set you on the path to understanding your
camera and how to create great shots. Armed with these fundamentals, you will have the
skills and the confidence to approach any style of photography, from portraits to landscapes
and everything in between.
Photography is a technical exercise and there is a lot to learn, but these basics apply to any
type of photography. However, as we only have a limited time to cover each of these topics,
please keep a copy of this course guide and practice these tricks and techniques over and over
again whenever you can.
Taking great photos takes time, practice, patience and consideration. In the beginning stages it
is very easy to become frustrated that your images do not capture your subject as you would
like to. This is perfectly normal and even professional photographers face this same challenge.
Be patient with it, you are learning and with practice, your photography will improve with every
shot.
