FAQs
+ I'm new to photography, should I start with these classes?
Travel Photography is a great class to learn tips for specific photography goals. However, if you're just starting with your camera and/or photography, we suggest starting with our most popular class, Digital Cameras 1
+ Do I need a camera for these classes?
Bringing a camera is highly encouraged. In each class we'll discuss settings and tactics that will be camera-specific, so having your camera on hand will be helpful. Interested in renting a camera for class? We have you covered, rent with us here.
+ During the class will we go outside and take photos?
These workshops are lecture based and may include some outdoor photography, but only for a brief time. To get full hands-on practice we suggest looking into our additional classes: Night Photography, and Better Composition Photo Walk.
