YES this is the Beginner Photography Series Dee has taught hundreds of North Iowa people since 2012! YES this is the series Dee created and taught through the local community college and at various towns in the North Iowa area! YES it IS worth it - the time FLIES by during each class, before you know it you've gone from using your camera in Auto mode to KNOWING what to do with your camera and creating photos you are excited to create!!! You will learn things from Square One - whether you've been using your camera for years and just have a few questions or you just took it out of the box, we want to make sure you know it ALL! Students consistently say Dee teaches in a way you will understand - and there is always hands-on practice, photo stations, homework, workbooks for follow-along, along with your own notes and resources to take home!

The Series of 3 classes is for Thursday evenings, every 2 weeks. 

The classes Series include:

Beginner 1        June 27th, 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Start using your DSLR or Mirrorless camera to its potential! Even if you’ve had your camera awhile, make sure you have it set up right and truly learn from Square One. Take your digital photography skills to the next level with D Portraits' Beginner 1 course. We'll walk you through basic set-up options, explanation of terms, automatic scene modes, White Balance, tips for creating better pictures including the Rule of Thirds, composition tips and tricks from top photographers, and much more. With Dee's easy-to-follow instruction, hands-on practice with photo stations and handouts, you'll be taking stunning photos in no time!

Beginner 2       July 11th, 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Take your digital photography skills to the next level with D Portraits' Beginner 2 class! In this class, you'll start to learn how to take your own professional-looking pictures and become more comfortable with your camera's options and modes. Dee will teach you about Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO, and Depth of Field, as well as how to use composition, portraiture and macro/still life in your photography. With hands-on assistance and photo stations in the classroom, you'll be able to practice what you learn and start to develop your own photography skills.

Beginner 3       July 25th, 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

This is the class to put it all together. It is where you really start to venture out of “Beginner” stages and begin taking control of your camera and the finished product: your photos!  Get to the next level *Manual Modes* with custom settings such as Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO, custom White Balance, Histogram, Lenses, Filters, and more. Begin moving off automatic and into manual with hands-on assistance the entire way. Learn steps, with provided Summary Guides to fit in your camera bag, to put it all together from Class 1, 2, and 3.  We give you the ROADMAP for future success with your camera, so you don't have to try to remember what you learned in class, you will leave with the summary guides Dee created through years of instruction and student questions!

These classes are for DSLR and mirrorless cameras with interchangeable lenses (the kind of camera you can take the lens off) and is located at D Portraits Photography Studio.

Class size is limited for hands-on time and attention; if the classes are filled up, contact us to get on a waiting list for possible other dates! 

See you there!
