Photography Class: Understanding How to Take Better Photos (Any Type of Camera) (3/19/26)

$59.99

Want to take photos you’re actually proud of — without buying new gear?
This in-person photography class focuses on composition and light, the two elements that make the biggest difference in your photos, no matter what camera you use — including your phone.

This is a hands-on, practical class designed for beginners and casual photographers who want immediate improvement without technical overwhelm.

What You’ll Learn

  • How to compose stronger photos using simple, repeatable techniques

  • How to see and use natural light to your advantage

  • Why some photos feel flat — and how to fix them

  • How framing, perspective, and background choices impact your images

  • How to apply these concepts to any camera, including smartphones

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of why certain photos work — and how to recreate those results on purpose.

Who This Class Is For

  • Beginners with any type of camera, including phones

  • Hobbyists who want better results without complicated settings

  • Anyone who feels like their photos don’t match what they see

  • Past students looking for a strong refresher on the fundamentals

No technical experience required.

What to Bring

  • A notebook (optional)

  • Curiosity and willingness to see differently
