Do you want to take cool photos and get creative with your camera? Are you curious about how light works with cameras to make pictures? Then this class is for you! In this one-off lesson I will be teaching students the basic elements of photography exposure so that they can get off auto mode, and take control of their cameras! We will learn about the Exposure Triangle by exploring in depth how ISO, shutter speed and aperture work together to create images with light. The inner workings of how a camera functions may sound complicated, but I have put together a fun slideshow presentation, with plenty of pictures to help engage students and show them how it all works. I will be explaining each element of the presentation whilst allowing students time to ask questions and have short discussions on the topics. I end the class with a short enjoyable quiz so everyone can see what they've learnt in a short period of time. Students are welcome to discuss the questions if they find it easier to work the answers out together! I am enthusiastic teacher who encourages curiosity - I have been a professional photographer for over 7 years so I am happy to answer photography questions students may have. No prior knowledge of photographer is needed, beginners welcome! Students who have done photography before may also learn something as we go in depth into each element of the exposure triangle.
