Did you receive a DSLR for Christmas? Or maybe you’ve had it a while….. do you always use it on “P” or an “Auto” function? Did you know that by using it this way, your camera is making ALL the decisions for you?  Do the terms ISO, shutter speed, f-stops, focus, and light meter scare you?? This class is for you! Maybe you just want better photos of your kids on Christmas morning, brighter photos for your website… or maybe to spruce up your Instagram feed. You made an investment into a quality piece of gear, shouldn’t you know how to use it?!

    ” Camera 101 was an informative introduction to my SLR camera. I was afraid to use anything but the “Auto” setting until I learned about what all those confusing terms meant – now I am much more comfortable using the Manual function and experimenting with the pictures I’m taking. Jessica was a great teacher, her explanations were clear and she has a lot of patience. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who just got a “fancy pants” camera that they would like to get to know better 🙂 “  -Katherine Little, student
