Have you even taken a picture and wondered what you could do differently to get the results the pros do? I have owned a DSL camera for quite a while and have never really felt I knew how to properly work it. I'm always a little overwhelmed and never sure what to use for the settings. I have often felt like all I did was purchase an expensive point & shot.
Whether or not you have had your camera for a while, or if you just got it, I have a great opportunity where you can take some fun classes without the pressure of feeling…. okay… stupid. These are perfect timing as the Holiday season approaches!
