Digital Photography I: Taking Control of Your Camera
I loved this class! The instructor, Leticia, was knowledgeable, patient and enthusiastic! As a beginner, I felt like this class was the perfect pace for learning. I’ll be signing up for photo 2! -
Digital Photography I: Taking Control of Your Camera
Really great format for beginners. Each class breaks down on single component with minimal hw to help reinforce those ideas. After you've learned the basics in the first three classes you graduate to full manual mode and practice/learn how to layer all the components in together to achieve your desired effect. 10/10 recommend! -
Digital Photography I: Taking Control of Your Camera

iPhone Photography
I just got my first iPhone after being team Android ever since I got my first HTC smartphone circa 2010. I'm still getting used to doing things the “Apple way” and PhotoUno's “2-hour iPhone photography class” is an excellent way to accelerate the learning curve of learning to harvest the capabilities of the iPhone camera. We had Francisco (Lyons) as the instructor of the class. We had a small class (4 students) which probably made for a better experience before we all got my individual attention. The class seats up to 9 people. We started the class off with short introductions, then we got into the very basics of photography. Think ISO, shutter speed, aperture, the rule's of 3rd's etc. I already knew most of this, but this was a greater refresher and I felt it was taught at an adequate level for the uninitiated. We got into shooting actually objects and learning about the multiple settings and functions that the stock iPhone camera app makes available. The class is laser focus on the default camera app, and the instructor didn't make mention of any 3rd party apps at any point. Overall, I felt that it was well worth the money. Francisco was great and was excellent at breaking down somewhat complicated subjects to a beginner level. I felt a lot more comfortable using the camera after taking this class. -
iPhone Photography
The class was fun, informative, and very interactive. -
