Are you still overwhelmed by the gazillion buttons on your camera? or maybe you just purchased a DSLR or mirrorless camera for your product photography and you need a helping hand? This class might help with all of that :)

Hi! My name is Rose. I am a food and product photographer. Most of my work is dedicated to helping small businesses increase sales and online presence through scroll stopping product photos. I also do virtual workshops for online sellers who want to DIY their photoshoots and just last year I had the honor and privilege to become one of Skillshare’s top teachers. I created this class to demystify the most technically complex part of my product photography journey, camera settings.

You might have heard or read the saying "your camera doesn't take photos, you do". It's cheesy but it's true!

I created this class to make product photography and camera settings less intimidating. My goal is to help you be more comfortable and confident in using your camera. If you are shooting in auto mode, My hope is to help you ease into full manual mode where you have more creative control.

What you'll learn:

What is exposure and why it's important in product photography.
A quick overview of camera parts specially made for absolute beginners.
What is aperture and how can you use it with artistic intention.
What is shutter speed and how can you use it with artistic intention.
What is ISO and why it completes the exposure triangle.
My favorite tool to help you get a balanced exposure. It’s your camera’s way to tell how it sees.
What is focal length and how it can affect your choice of lens.
My tried and tested accessories to help you succeed in your product photography journey.
Product photography demos that focus on camera settings, decision making and troubleshooting.

Who is this class for?

-Product Photographers

-Beginner Photographers

-Aspiring Product Photographers

-Bloggers

-Influencers

-Online Sellers

-Social Media Influencers

-E-commerce Business Owners

-Anyone who wants to be the boss of their camera :)

By the end of this class, you will have a better understanding of the essential camera settings and how you can use it with artistic intention. My goal is to turn those scary settings and mind boggling numbers to friendly tools that will aid your creativity and vision.

The main focus of this class is camera settings but if you need help and guidance on product styling, props, lighting, composition and flat lay product photography, I highly recommend these other classes:

Product Photography: A Beginner’s Guide to Props and Styling

Product Photography: A Beginner’s Guide to Lighting

Product Photography: How to Use Composition for Impactful Photos

Product Photography: How to Make Flat Lays for Clothes

It does not matter what type of camera your are using, may it be a DSLR or mirrorless camera, you are very much welcome to join this class!
