EXPOSURES 101
ISO, Shutter Speed, & Aperture
Cost: $69/person
Length: 2 hours
Suggested Prerequisite: Camera Specific Class
In this two hour session we will be discussing the fundamentals of exposure:
Shutter speed, aperture and ISO. Those three features of your camera are what
make the picture look the way it does. Understanding how and when to use
them is a huge advantage. This class takes a deeper look into Program, Aperture
Priority, Shutter Priority and Manual modes. Using these modes, you can explore
the creative side of your camera while also gaining a lot of control over your DSLR.
Start telling your camera what to do instead of hoping it does what you want.

EXPOSURES 201
Cost: $69/person
Length: 2 hours
Suggested Prerequisite: Exp. 101
Picking up from where 101 left off, we
take an in-depth look at how shutter
speed, aperture and ISO effect various
photographic situations. We break down
difficult situations to shoot and how to use
your exposure compensation controls to
get the picture you want. We will also talk
about ‘stops’ of light and how you can
have equivalent exposures to a scene. We
explain why shooting in Manual Mode may
be the best option for some situations.
Other topics will include how shutter
speed affects flash, bracketing, metering
modes and locking your exposure.

EXPOSURES 301
Cost: $69/person
Length: 2 hours
Suggested Prerequisite: Exp. 101 & 201
In this two hour hands on class, we will continue
to explore the options available to you for
controlling your exposures. When do we want
to shoot in Aperture Mode? Shutter Priority?
Why does setting your ISO, shutter speed and
aperture manually give you the most creative
control over most photo situations? We will
experiment with the different modes by taking
some photos in the class and outside. Using
your speedlight/flash, we will explore how to
balance your flash exposure with the overall
scene indoors and outside. The instructor will
give you advise and critique of those photos as
you shoot. This is a valuable class to attend for
anyone wanting to master creative exposure
techniques and to take their images to the
next level.

workshop, bring your camera and external flash and let our instructors share their
vast experience using speedlights with you. You will learn how to use various light

the tools, how to enhance your photos, and selecting within an image. Using a
pre-chosen set of common problem pictures, you will see what these tools
can do. An introduction to how layers and layer masks help you control your
image editing will be explored. In the second two-hour class, we will continue to
expand on using the tools in the program and demonstrate the power of layers,
layer masks, and making composite images. We will spend time learning about
photo retouching to make your subject look their best and some other magical
changes you can perform with this program.

In the first two-hour session, using our in-class
computers, we will review the interface and
show how to customize it to streamline your raw
processing workflow. We will review how to import,
catalog, organize and process your digital files to
your liking and export your files as jpeg, tiff, and
Photoshop files. Did you know you can set your
color balance after you shoot with a raw file? In
our second two-hour class we will process files
showing you how to make several “versions” of the
same file to explore your creative possibilities and
how to selectively edit certain areas/tones/colors of
your file (bring in a few of your raw files on a USB
drive or CD so we can show you some options
on how to process them). Do you have hundreds
of images that you want to process and want to
know how to speed up the process? This is the
#1 software pros and serious photographers use
to get the best quality from their raw images and
batch process multiple images at once.
