The Manual Story
I remember feeling so frustrated when I would try to take photos with my camera; the lighting was off, the color was wrong, everything was out focus, and things just didn't look the way I envisioned them! I also craved that rich, blurry background, but couldn't figure out how to achieve it. I signed up for a photography class and dropped out, I was so bored!! Finally, my desire to create the photos I wanted pulled me back into a photography class--I HAD to learn how to shoot in manual mode! Once I mustarded through the "boring part," my creative vision was brought to life--I could finally create the photos I had dreamed of!!
I designed this course to help you do the same thing--Let's bring your creative vision to life as you master manual mode! Join me in The Light Collective to finally create the photos you desire. I'll be here to help you every step of the way!
