Every lesson will be personalised to what you hope to achieve next on your photographic journey, from just starting out and learning the basics to wanting to shoot on film and how to manipulate colours and retouch using photoshop. I want it to be as dynamic and conversational as possible to make sure you are getting everything you would like out of each lesson. When possible we will practically do what is being taught - muscle memory and experimentation is an important part of the process for everyone at every stage. I have personal experience I will bring to the table shooting fashion, portraiture, headshots, events, weddings, dancers, nature and street photography in both studios, indoor and outdoor locations. Some example of what we can cover includes: how to shoot in manual, how to shoot with natural light vs flash lighting setups, what to shoot (event, wedding, portrait) and how best to shoot them, everything you need to know about shoot on film, finding a camera that suits your needs, what do the different lens sizes (24mm, 50mm, 100mm) mean and what do they do, what are different SD card types, different image sizes (JPEG to Raw), the different softwares and how to use them (Photoshop, Lightroom, Capture One), and we can go through your cameras settings and personalise it for your needs. I welcome questions and would love you to bring in reference images you love and wish you achieve yourself. My aim is for you to achieve all your goals together.
