Photography Lessons
Learn the elements of photography from ME! – a lifestyle photographer with over a decade of experience. I’ll cover techniques to make the most of your cell phone camera, covering composition, lighting, and editing, and will help even the most beginning photographer elevate their travel photos.
If you struggle to take a picture on your phone, or if you have a digital camera and want some tips and tricks for elevating your photography skills, this trip is for you. We’ll learn using our phone cameras, but you are welcome and even encouraged to bring along any camera you want.
You’ll also come home with some beautiful new portraits of yourself (taken by me!) as well as an e-book of all the lessons we cover to reference any time you want.
I will integrate daily photography lessons into each excursion and will teach you how to tell stories through images as we capture our charming surroundings. You’ll also learn some of my favorite tips for photographing the heart of any location!
