let’s make this thing a whole lot less scary.

Coming this winter 2025 at the lovely Art Academy of Milton

DSLR 101

Have a DSLR that’s collecting dust or stuck on Auto, or maybe you just got one for Christmas? I teach basic and advanced DSLR skills because I want people to enjoy shooting without frustration. You deserve to take good, everyday moments of the people and the things you love. As someone who learned totally by tinkering and trial and error, I teach the settings of your DSLR camera and shooting in manual mode in real language. I didn’t learn by the book, and I don’t teach by the book. I promise you it’s not as overwhelming as it seems.

WHAT WE’LL COVER:

  • ISO, Aperture, depth of field, shutter speed, camera settings

  • how to transition from automatic mode to manual mode

  • different types of cameras and lenses and what works best for you

  • the basics of shooting in indoor and outdoor lighting

THE DETAILS:

Classroom work: Mondays, January 6 and 13th from 6-8PM at the Art Academy of Milton, 38 South Front Street Milton, PA in The Classroom (stair access only)

Practice shooting in outdoor light: Saturday, January 18th from 2-3PM at Hufnagle Park, Lewisburg, PA

Class is capped at 10 participants. $175 per participant

Each student receives a packet of knowledge, cheat sheets for on-the-go shooting, and a follow-up with Amanda two weeks after classes end for any additional questions. I never leave you hanging.
