Join me Nov. 7th or 12th to learn smarter phone photography at the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden. If you're looking to improve your photography skills or trying to figure out how to get the most of out your phone's camera this is the perfect time to learn. The holiday's are coming up fast which means family and work parties and lots of chances to take great photos. Sign up for this class and feel more confident in your photography abilities!

This Class Is For You

If you take photos with your phone then this class is for you! There are two opportunities to take this class. Sign up for Sunday Nov 7th or Friday Nov 12th. I promise you that if you use your phone to take pictures that you will really enjoy this class. As with all of my classes I focus on teaching you the fundamentals of photography rather than gimmicks and tricks that only work if the conditions are right. With the photography skills you'll learn in this class you will be able to solve problems when you encounter them and that, to me, is what learning is for.

All Ages And Skill Levels

I focus on teaching the fundamentals of photography including exposure, focus, framing, composition, and how to understand light. Everyone, no matter their age or abilities will benefit from this class. It doesn't matter if you have an iPhone or Android phone, it doesn't matter if you've been taking photos with your phone for years.

This class will help you understand the science and craft of photography, how to avoid hype from phone sellers, how to edit your photos on your phone, and how to share them on social media or elsewhere.

What You'll Learn

If you want to know what you'll learn before you sign up for the class then read on. If you're ready to learn smarter phone photography you can visit the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden's website to register for the Nov. 7th class or to register for the Nov. 12th class. In this class you'll learn:

  • how to control your phone's camera
  • how to set your exposure
  • how to focus
  • how to find great light
  • how to compose photos that look incredible
  • what accessories to buy to take your phone photography to the next level
  • how to make the best photos possible even in difficult situations

My Teaching Style

I recognize that everyone learns differently and my teaching style takes this into account. This class will be part lecture with slides and part practical experience. My goal is to make sure my classes are enjoyable, interactive, and informative. I want you to feel engaged, to participate, and to feel like you learned what you came to learn. Learning is a collaborative process. We're in this together so I ask that you work with me and let me know if you're not following anything I'm teaching and expect that I'll be checking in with you during the class if you look like you don't understand. Your satisfaction is important to me.
