 Week 1
Lesson 1
Intro to Photography
We will discuss basics of photography, each student's camera and what functions they have. We will learn about angles, distance, photography terms (ISO, Aperture, and Shutter Speed). Task: Take a photo using the terms we discussed if your camera allows. If not, take two different photos. One should have a close-up item with a background not as clear, meaning that the focus is on the item in the front. Second, should be of a landscape outdoor site. They can take a walk to find this one.
Lesson 2
How to Capture the Best Photo
I will discuss my favorite editing tools, programs, and settings. I will also show them some options and we will discuss which looks better and why. Task: They will edit their two photos from the previous week in any programs I shared. I do list some FREE programs and many phones have editing tools built in. I give many options for all learners. They will choose one photo and write a little paragraph about it following my guide.
Lesson 3
How to Edit Your Photos
This class will allow students to share their final photo with edits and share why they chose it and how they edited it. they will then get to give insight on each other, view some of mine, and ask any final questions.
I am a certified teacher, but I also run my own photography business. I also have a Master's Degree in Marketing.
