What you'll do

Have you ever wished you could perfectly capture those special moments with your loved ones using only your smartphone? Does your phone photography often turn out too dark, out of focus or badly cropped? Or are you just craving some useful and super practical indoor activities?

If you answered yes to any of the above, then this workshop is for you! Photography skills are super useful for everyday life and the basics will stick with you for years to come.

In this live online class, you will learn how to take better photos with your phone by understanding:

The secret of light
The camera and lens as your tools
Using composition to create strong images

During the workshop we use visuals and on phone demonstrations to keep things simple and clear. You will also perform a small number of simple, practical exercises to practice as you learn. There will be plenty of time to ask questions; you're here to learn!

Learn how to combine these new skills to create the photos you 'see' in your mind and impress your family and friends!

Chris was an engaging teacher, and he covered lots of technical points but made them very easy to follow and understand. Great to see the iphone on camera and be able to find out where all those buttons are hidden and make use of them in the class. Really enjoyable and great tips. Thanks Chris.

The quality of the information presented in this work shop is world class, I have completed video and photography courses upwards of $4500 each and the information Chris gives in this workshop was superior to other course I have completed. Chris has a talent to make the information easy to digest and implement. If you want to take exceptional photos for any reason, Personal, Family, Business, Social Media etc. I highly recommend you attend Chris's course.

This class was perfect for me. I needed some general quick short tips on how to take better pics with my iPhone.
Chris gave some very interesting background to colour, lighting etc; which clarified the why!
I had a few wow and ahah! moments.
Highly recommend it!
Thank you

Heather Mead • Jul 2020

Fabulous workshop! Chris has great depth of knowledge and is clearly passionate about photography. He has a relaxed teaching style which makes for a very open learning environment. The course outline was well set out and everything was covered, with great examples of topics discussed. Background and history of photography was really interesting and added depth to the discussion.
