Learn To Think Like a Photographer

The Learn To Think Like A Photographer Photography class will get you thinking like a photographer and creating unique compositions. And because you’ll begin associating camera operation with visual outcomes, composing pictures becomes more deliberate. Specifically, we’ll talk about and practice a compositional thought process that we can apply to any camera we use. We’ll also cover photography basics. Finally, we’ll practice what we discussed by relating what we do with our camera to how to make the picture (composition). As a result, we’ll make better pictures, AND they’ll be uniquely your compositions because you’ll be using your unique mind to create the image.

About the Learn to Think Like a Photographer Class

In a nutshell, learning to “think like a photographer” is what this class is about. Specifically, we’ll talk about and practice a compositional thought process that we can apply to any camera we use. During hands-on practice, we’ll apply what we covered while creating photographs with a deliberate thought process that will ensure compositions that are uniquely yours. Whether our camera is the camera on our phone, a DSLR, or anything in between, we all engage the same thought process as photographers.

During The Learn To Think Like A Photographer class, we’ll get into everything we do as photographers to create our photographs. Furthermore, we’ll break down how we make a photograph step by step. We’ll be more involved in the composition when we break down and examine what we do as photographers. And, when we get involved in the design process, we make better photographs. During the class, we’ll consider our camera a tool to create the best pictures possible. When we understand the tool we work with, then we’ll use that tool skillfully. When we do that, the camera becomes less critical, and our thought process becomes more important.

The Learn To Think Like A Photographer class introduces a foundational compositional thought process you can apply when working with any camera.

Some of the things you’ll learn:

During Class

In short, you’ll learn by doing. This hands-on class will familiarize you with what we do as photographers. Additionally, we’ll go through the process of seeing something to photograph and learn how to think of how our camera affects our photograph’s composition while keeping compositional intent in mind.

• While working with Sam, he’ll introduce you to “thinking like a photographer.” Also, while using your camera, you’ll be engaged in creating your picture.
• You’ll be given “assignments” during the class because they’ll help solidify the course material.
• This elementary class is geared toward photographers regardless of camera or experience.

How You’ll Learn After Class

 Because your learning shouldn’t end when the class does,  Sam will guide students to continue studying and practicing the class material independently.

Ashley says: “I really enjoyed the attention to detail during the class. It was a great starter class to learning how to work YOUR camera. I enjoyed the small class size which allowed for a lot of personal attention. It didn’t matter that everyone had a different camera because each person got the necessary attention to learn how to change everything on their camera.”

Nellie says: “Sam is able to explain the basics of photography, cameras and light in a way that is so much less complicated than beginners photography books. He’s a great teacher.”
