Last Saturday had a lot of fun teaching this 7 hours introduction to digital photography class at my gallery in Belmont. 8 students were all excited to get to know their camera better and get some hands on practice .
Like the previous classes, was held at my gallery . In the morning, after we had breakfast, we spent the whole morning from 9:30am – 1:00pm learning about theory and get familiar with their own equipment . The theory part include all the basic of photography… like aperture , shutter speed, iso, lens characterists/usage, composition, depth of field, flash …. . Then we all have lunch together.
Theory means nothing without practice, so after lunch , we went out for some hands on practice from 1:00pm – 4:00pm . We all practiced and applied what we learned in the morning using our gear. We practiced the combination of shutter speed/aperture to archive different result that we want. Everyone was required to use M (manual) mode to practice.
I designed this class to only accept 8 students because I have to make sure every student got enough attentions from me and ask questions and guidance when they need.
See what one of my student Stacie said and blog about this class. <<<<<<
