What you will learn

This intermediate photography course will allow you to improve your camera skills in the studio and on location.

It is designed for those who would like to fully understand their camera and to explore what makes a good photograph. The course will cover the effective use of aperture and shutter speed, as well as on camera flash for the production of creative images. It will also cover basic studio lighting techniques, exploring how to use tungsten lights and flash for portraiture and still life.
