Photography 101 for the Average Joe

A Photography 101 class typically covers the basics of camera operation, including understanding key features like shutter speed, aperture, and ISO, and how they affect exposure.

Students learn about different types of lenses and their uses, along with basic composition techniques such as the rule of thirds and leading lines. The course often introduces students to different lighting techniques, both natural and artificial, and teaches them how to manage settings for various shooting environments.

Additionally, post-processing basics like photo editing in software such as Lightroom or Photoshop may also be included, helping students refine their images after capturing them. Overall, it’s about building foundational skills to help students take well-composed, properly exposed photos.
