    Description

    Making the switch from taking photos with your phone to using a camera requires some changes. Phone cameras make it easy to take snapshot images. To use a camera well, you need to control it and understand how to take great photos. Using a camera is so much more fun and the quality of your photos will improve dramatically ... once you know what you're doing.

    This course contains 30 lessons and practical exercises designed to get you started using your camera. I focus on the differences you can expect between using your phone and your camera to take photos. No matter what camera you use, taking photos happens the same way. Light enters the camera (or phone camera) through a lens. The right amount of light must enter to record a well-exposed photograph with the camera's sensor. With your phone, this process is fully automated and generally produces bland, uncreative results. Using your camera you can control the light, timing, focus, composition, and more. With this course, I'll teach you all about how to enjoy doing this.


    I've been taking photos since I was a teenager, most of my working career I've been a professional photographer. I also have many years of experience teaching new and experienced photographers about their cameras and the craft of photography. You'll see how I work when I'm demonstrating the practical exercises that accompany every lesson. Each exercise has a .pdf document to help guide you through what to do to complete it.


    I designed this course so you can complete it easily in one month and change your photography experience in just a short amount of time. Each lesson is short and concentrates on a single topic. There's a clearly explained practical exercise with each lesson. Take as long or as little time as you like to complete the exercise and you're sure to experience growth and development in your photography. You'll see the results in the photos you're taking. You'll easily retain what you learn and put it into practice every time you use your camera.

    Who this course is for:

    • Everyone who enjoys taking photos with their phone and wants to switch to using a camera and learning how to take the most awesome photographs

    Instructor's Courses
    I am a New Zealand professional photographer and film maker based in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I have over 30 years experience. My background is in newspaper and commercial photography. The past 10 years I have also been producing short documentary films for non profit organizations. My wife and I also run a photography workshop business - Chiang Mai Photo Workshops - teaching what we love to do to all levels of photographers. I have genuine, real world experience teaching, not just in creating video courses. I am flexible to shoot in different styles and genres and am most passionate about portraits and documentary style. I sell stock photos and video through various online agencies. The video production company I manage, Acts Multimedia, provides services for non profits at affordable rates. I am always interested in constructive feedback and would love to know student's ideas on other photography course you would like to see me produce.
    Students take courses primarily to improve job-related skills.Some courses generate credit toward technical certification. Udemy has made a special effort to attract corporate trainers seeking to create coursework for employees of their company.
