What you'll do
There’ll be no more Auto Mode for you after this beginners photography course that will allow you to work your DSLR, mirrorless or compact camera to its full potential!
Over five weeks, your two-hour classes will be mostly hands-on with your camera and there is plenty of practical experience. The course is light on theory, instead allowing you to learn how to use a DSLR or Mirrorless camera by doing.
Your teacher is advertising and editorial photographer Scott McGale, who will share his wealth of knowledge about unique professional techniques that are not taught anywhere else and the same ones he uses on professional photoshoots.
Small class sizes allow your teacher to give plenty of personal attention. Via this series of lessons about your camera functions and foundation principles of creative photography, you will get out of Auto Mode and into Manual Mode with confidence!
What you will learn in five photography lessons:
- Camera care and handling
- Manual mode
- Aperture priority mode
- What is depth of field
- Rules of composition
- White balance
- ISO and image quality
- Direction of light
- Day and night shooting
Knowledge required
Perfect for beginners or intermediate shooters.
What you'll get
This course incorporates both day and night time photography.
What to bring
All you need to do this course is your camera and lens.
Session repeats
This class series runs over 5 consecutive sessions, at the same time every week.
Your teacher
Editorially in the UK, Scott shot for Vogue, Arena, Marie Claire, Elle, GQ, The Sunday Times Magazine and others. While in Australia he has shot for Marie Claire, Instyle, Nio.se, and the Sunday Telegraph. His Beauty, Fashion and Portraiture work has been published in over 20 countries around the globe, including Europe and the USA.
During his time in London, he shot more than a dozen Sunday Times Magazine covers. His Kissing Cover was included in an international exhibition of the Sunday Times 100 best covers and published in Cover Story (2006). The exhibition toured the world, and his Frankencience Cover was voted cover of the decade and is on permanent display at the Times Head Office in Wapping, London.
Scott had been based in London since 1995. Late in 2007 he relocated back to his home country of Australia and now lives in Sydney. In 2008, his portrait of a birth was included in Sydney Life Exhibition, and displayed in Hyde Park in the City for 2 months.
Apart from shooting Advertising campaigns and Editorial spreads for magazines, he is married with 2 lovely daughters and is often having a swim with them in the morning at Manly Beach.
