With all the hype and misinformation about learning “pro” photography on the weekend, it’s no wonder people think using a camera is easy—until they try.Brief camera introductions and overviews are OK, but only point out the way, giving you just enough information to “be dangerous.” But you want more than that with your photography, right?Beginner Photography ONE establishes a solid technical foundation for your photography and teaches you how to use a camera to capture great pictures. Leave Auto mode behind with a class that has helped thousands of students learn to take control of their cameras.Oh yeah, and you’ll have a great time. Read student reviews.Classes run MONTHLY throughout the yearA new class begins each month (except December) and is offered on different days of the week to provide greater scheduling flexibility. If something comes up and you can’t make a session, you can jump into another class that week and catch the same material.100% Until it Clicks PromiseLearning photography and complicated cameras can be challenging; as part of my "100% Until it Clicks" promise, you may retake the class anytime at no cost.Photography is FUN when you know what you’re doing with a camera.Visit shutterbugtraining.com for the current class schedule and more info.BEGINNER PHOTOGRAPHY ONE CLASS OUTLINESession 1: FOCUSFollowing the location of basic camera settings, your quest for better photos begins with exploring Auto and Manual FOCUS. Unlike other aspects of a picture, a missed focus is forever and can’t be fixed. Discover the various AF modes and how to get sharp images for any subject, including landscapes and nature, people and portraits, and sports.Session 2: EXPOSEEvery photo involves three light-based elements: ISO, aperture, and shutter speed. EXPOSE reveals how each feature relates to light and contributes to the appearance of your image. Learn to capture a somersault in midair, render a silky smooth waterfall, and envelop subjects with beautifully blurred backgrounds or bokeh.Session 3: CONTROLBringing shape to your ideas, CONTROL teaches you how to work with the light elements of exposure using Manual, Aperture Priority, and Shutter Priority. Each mode can produce the same picture; the one you use is more a matter of preference. There will be plenty of patient coaching and hands-on practice to ensure you understand how to use them.Session 4: EXPRESSThe great thing about creativity is that it is personal and expressed in different ways by everyone. No two people experience the same scene in the same way, but cameras do. EXPRESS reveals how the camera responds to light, allowing you to make more creative exposure decisions with your photos in nearly any lighting condition.Session 5: CLASS OUTINGAlthough there are plenty of hands-on activities during class and assignments for you to practice at home, we wrap each class with a scheduled group outing to practice what was learned TOGETHER. Locations vary but are close and easily accessible. We'll discuss it in class and pick a date and time that works best for everyone. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/columbus/beginner-photography-one-camera-control/100001985084394862 - **Event Categories**: workshops, trips-adventures, sports - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: under_16_with_guardian - Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes - Location: Shutterbug Training - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 250, max: 250, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Columbus - **state**: OH - **country**: United States - **location**: Shutterbug Training - **lat**: 39.9960545 - **long**: -83.0733987 - **full address**: Shutterbug Training, 2025 Riverside Drive, Columbus, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Beginner Photography ONE: Camera Control - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/5de8a01ce0df6410a0979da30b11fd4ce59df6e4a72d3ae6557143d94b299da7-rimg-w1200-h600-dc1f1f1f-gmir.jpg?v=1777382898 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Beginner Photography ONE: Camera Control being held? - **A:** Beginner Photography ONE: Camera Control takes place on Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 10:00 am to Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 11:30 am at Shutterbug Training, 2025 Riverside Drive, Columbus, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Beginner Photography ONE: Camera Control? - **A:** Beginner Photography ONE: Camera Control is organized by Shutterbug Training. - **Q**: Who is this event for?

Everyone is new or struggles at some point; I remember picking up a camera for the first time and having no idea where to begin. Information was over and across the board and often more confusing than helpful. The learning curve appeared straight up. Sound familiar?Based on decades behind a lens, the Beginner Series is an effort to shorten the learning curve and provide an easier entry into photography — whatever your interest and without ego. Over the years, I’ve helped numerous people learn how to use a camera and capture great images, and I can help you." } ] } ] ```
