Introduction to Digital Photography

Making the ordinary look extraordinary! 'An Introduction to Digital Photography'.

Discover a new perspective on the world around you with our short 8-week photography course.

Whether you use a smartphone, a compact camera, or a more advanced DSLR or mirrorless camera, this course will help you get the best out of the camera you already own. You’ll learn essential technical skills along with composition and lighting techniques that will instantly improve your photographs.

We’ll then teach you basic editing techniques and how to enhance your photographs. We'll also show you how to store and present your images for viewing, sharing or resizing them for printing.

As you build confidence behind the camera, you’ll create a personal mini-portfolio showcasing the photographs you’ve taken throughout the course. To celebrate your progress, your work will be featured in a digital exhibition at the end of the 8 weeks.

Join us, and transform the way you see the world with our Basic Photography Course.Privacy
