About This Class

Maybe you don't have a camera but want to get one. Maybe you have a camera but don't exactly know how to use it. Or maybe you're a sponge for knowledge and are interested in learning from a different angle. Whatever your situation may be, I am here to provide a solution! Camera Basics for photography doesn't have to be hard or boring. So let's see...

What You Will Learn
In this class, you'll find the fastest way to become a competent shooter. The important terminologies such as Shutter Speed, Aperture, and ISO, will have dedicated lessons with down-to-earth examples. Most of the class we will learn outdoors in beautiful Colorado. And I'll show you how everything comes together from real-life photo sessions I've been apart of in the last lesson. From Landscape all the way to Portrait Photography.

And by the end of this class, you will be confident enough to take photos in manual mode. I made this class to create confident photographers. I made this class to help you take full control of your camera!

Structure Of The Class

How To Physically Operate A Camera : Lesson 1 will teach you how to physically take photos. From external buttons to internal settings. Be aware that I myself use a Canon camera but I assure you following along won't be an issue. By the end of this lesson, you will be familiar with the basic functionality of your camera.
Camera Basics: In Lessons 2-4, we will go in-depth about Shutter Speed, Aperture, and ISO and how you use these together to achieve the perfect photo for you. We will see how to use them in different scenarios.
Refining Skills: Think of Lessons 5-7 as sharpening tools to perfect your craft. These three lessons will go over the combined use of Lessons 2-4, the importance and meanings of color, and lastly a technique called "Seeing In Black & White". This is to reinforce the fundamentals and advance your photo-taking mind & skills to a new level.
Real-Life Scenarios: Lesson 8 will be our time to relax and "apply" what we've learned to real-life photoshoots you may embark on in the near future. Car Photography, Approaching Random People, Product Photography, Landscape Photography, and Portrait Photography will be covered. And these are real photoshoots I've recorded on my youtube channel and have been hired to do.
Homework With Lucas: After every lesson Lucas will assign you homework to practice what was taught. Feel free to share what you got with the community!
