Intro to Photography Basics
So now that we've gone through all the technical stuff, let's get into more of the creative stuff. Now, this is really where photography uh comes to life for me. Because while understanding the tech stuff, you can learn that and you can, it's important to know uh the creative side is really where you shine as a photographer and where you create your style. Now, in this section, we are going to talk about sort of the three key elements that we think it takes to create a wonderful photo and that is really composition, lighting and ultimately sharing a story. Really. What is your image saying? So we're going to dive into this and start off by talking about composition.

Good course for everyone starting out and needed to have some more basic info beyond the common snap shot. I had wished for more info on using mobile in the more professional field like when switching from camera to mobile. Additional lenses and flashes and things like that. But this course was obviously not targeted at this. So overall still a nice brush up.

Definitely geared to beginners, but the class has a lot of good information. As an advanced camera photographer still trying to get to know my phone camera better, I learned a few things I didn't know (like you can use portrait mode for selfies, what hyper lapse is and the VSCO app). Nice job!

Great class. Well organized and clearly presented. Would be very good for beginners and mid level users. highly recommend.
