Capture those fleeting moments in your child’s life with everything you need to start photographing in manual mode today.
It’s important to note from the start that my momtering sessions are – as the name suggests – intended for moms and not those currently running a professional photography business. If you are currently running a business please e-mail to make sure that this mentoring session is a good fit for where you are on your journey. All you will need is a DSLR camera to attend any of my momtering sessions.
I begin each of my momtering sessions by going through images you have already taken and writing down your settings. By the middle of the course we re-visit those settings to see why you struggled AND to prove that YOU ARE SMARTER then your camera. After the teaching portion of the course – we start to shoot. At which point I mess up your settings and it is your job to come back to the “safe zone” to get the proper exposure. I guarentee youwill walk away from one of my mentoring sessions ready to tackle the world of photography with confidence and a newfound appreciation for photography.
This session will run approximately 4 to 5 hours (depending on the class size) in where we will cover the following:
1) Taking your camera setting off the green box and mastering the exposure triangle: ISO, Aperture and Shutter Speed.
2) Composition and depth of field
3.) Understanding the different focusing systems your camera has and how to utilize them depending on what you are shooting
4.) Indoor and outdoor lighting techniques
5.) How to use your lenses and understanding focal lengths.
6.) Depth of field and the 3 ways you can achieve that “blurry” background.
7.) Learn how to “shoot from the hip “and stop hiding behind the lens and learn to interact with your child to get those natural smiles
8.) We will end the session outdoors where we chase the light during golden hour.
By the end of our session…
… you WILL be shooting confidently in Manual mode by mastering my “safe-zone” strategy
… you WILL fall in love with the photographs of fleeting moments you capture every day with your children
…you WILL be know how to chase the light in any shooting situation
With this session you’ll also receive a copy of my momtering manual and a private invitation to my Pixie Dust Facebook mentoring page where you can ask the group questions to continue on your journey to photographing in manual mode.
