About Matthew
Looking to take your photography to the next level?
I have been a professional commercial photographer for 7 years.
Teaching pro photography and photoshop at the college level for the past 3 years.
With my one-on-one training you'll learn at a much faster rate, on your own schedule, and in the comfort of your own home or mine. Why go to a crowded class that does not offer the same level of individual support? Each new student of mine receives immediate hands on training catered to their own skill level and desired pace. I won't bog you down with tons of technical terms and scientific explanations - I will simply teach you how it works.
Lessons are also perfect for answering specific questions you may have.
Field trips allow practice of the techniques learned and opportunity for practical guidance. Topics may include:
THE EXPOSURE TRIANGLE
- Using aperture, shutter speed, and ISO to control exposure
- Using aperture to control depth-of-field
