Learn to fully utilize your cameras potentials! Harness your creative power with photography!
This is the essential class for anyone looking to take that first giant step into the world of photography! Our patient and entertaining instructors will cover all the basics in this hands-on class, including changing depth-of-field (controlling what’s in focus in the background), stopping or blurring the action in your scene, and many other basic picture-taking techniques.

Our two guarantees:
 You will learn a lot!
 You will have a fun time doing it!
