Photography course for beginners

A photography course centred on your camera.

You do not need to know manual photography beforehand. We start at your level and progress at a pace you can follow. Teaching is one to one, with time for questions.

Based in Hørsholm, I also offer courses in Copenhagen and North Zealand by arrangement. We choose a location suited to your subjects and exercises.

What we can work on.

Camera settings: Aperture, shutter speed and ISO, and how they affect light, movement and depth of field. We also work with focus so you understand where the camera focuses.

Light and composition: Find suitable light, choose a calm background and compose deliberately. Practise techniques immediately and receive specific feedback.

Your subjects: We can focus on portraits, sport and movement or landscape and nature. Send some of your own images beforehand if helpful.

How to prepare.

Bring your camera, lens, charged battery and an empty memory card. Explain your camera model and what you want to improve. A camera manual can help find model-specific settings.

You do not need to buy equipment first. We use what you already own. If the weather does not suit planned outdoor exercises, we agree another approach.
