You will love this course if you want to keep growing your photographic eye, truly control your camera and start making your photos reflect who you are and who your family are. This is the course where your photography really picks up the pace. We will support and challenge you to help you find your own voice in photography. * How do I get FULL control of my camera? - shooting in full manual - but with clarity and purpose * When is the ‘correct’ exposure not the RIGHT one and why is my camera confused? And more importantly, how to fix it in camera? * How do you capture genuine emotion and NOT just fake smiles? No more 'smile for Mummy' * How to make your light AND SHADOWS work for you? and capture stunning images even if you think you have barely any light * What makes a ‘strong image’ and how do I begin to get them more consistently? INSIDE THE MODULES - AKA WHAT DO YOU LEARN? MODULE 1: GETTING STARTED IN MANUAL MODE First steps into shooting in full manual – understanding your exposure and metering, finding correct exposure for your subject, handling over and under exposure and adjusting your settings without even taking your camera away from your eyes. MAJOR TAKEAWAYS: At the end of the module you will have gained full control of your camera - no more guessing game and unpredictable results with all the control going firmly to you. You will be able to understand your jump off points for different situations and how to adjust them to the changing light or environment MODULE 2: MORE ON MANUAL EXPOSURE AND WHY YOUR CAMERA IS OFTEN WRONG Learning when the ‘correct’ exposure is not the “right exposure”, understanding and interpreting your histograms, learning how your environment can help you get the right exposure even in tricky light, dealing with challenging light situations. MAJOR TAKEAWAYS: Knowing when to trust and not trust your camera's exposure assessment. Knowing exactly how to adjust things when the images don't turn out looking right out of the camera. Having a method to help you capture different colour accurately - especially when it comes to skin tones, or elements that are bright or dark MODULE 3: POWERFUL COMPOSITION  Learning what makes a strong image and learning to create your own, consistently, with the help of our advanced composition techniques – beyond the rule of thirds. Visual storytelling and creating connection to create images which go beyond just pretty. MAJOR TAKEAWAYS: Learning new concepts in composition - things that will help you create exiting visual flow, help with impactful storytelling and draw the viewer's eye into the image rather than away from it.  NEXT COURSE STARTS ON 15TH APRIL 2024 Get your space now [https://photographyforparents.co.uk/advanced-level-2-course/#tve-jump-18a4bbac222] MODULE 4: NO SUCH THING AS BAD LIGHT There is no such thing as bad light - even with just a sliver of it you can make a statement in your images. In this module we teach you how to work with low light - through low key photography - playing with light and shadows. And we give you an introduction to Flash - for when you want to boost your existing natural light that little bit more.    MAJOR TAKEAWAYS: You will learn how to use light and shadows to your advantage, literally learning to paint with light - letting it uncover your subject, and hide what you want to stay out of light. Much like the light module in our Fundamentals course this is very much an AH-HA lesson that will shake your photography to its core. MODULE 5: PHOTOGRAPHING EMOTIONS  In this module we get under our subject's skin and focus on photographing emotions. We show you how to reply on more than facial expression to show emotions and how to use your creative toolkit, including colour theory to make the viewer see and understand the emotion felt in the moment.  MAJOR TAKEAWAYS: Learning how to capture genuine connection with your subject and their true emotions – whether happy or mad! Going beyond the smiles or frowny faces to portray your children’s true selves and capturing the moment. Using body language and other creative means – from colour theory, editing style and more! BONUS MODULE 6: YOUR CREATIVE SELF Exploring various photographic styles and conventions. Learning to recognise your own strengths and weaknesses and taking steps to grow further. Bonus creative exercises to take you outof your rut and help you continue to grow your photography. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In my opinion Advanced level 2 is absolute must as it expand the knowledge from level 1 to the point, that you can take photos confidently, and knowing what you do. I did it online and my teachers were superb, passionate, helpful and very flexible.  Aga Stefaniak PHOTOGRAPHY FOR PARENTS ADVANCED BOOK YOUR SPACE NOW: COURSE STARTS : 15TH APRIL 2024 ( 6 WEEKS INCL 1 WEEK BREAK) COURSE COST :   £279 (PAYMENT PLANS AVAILABLE) What’s included: * 6 weekly modules covering all key aspects of children’s photography, * weekly live online class ( also recorded) - on Wednesday evenings * personal feedback and advice on your images * private support group * PDF workbook PHOTOGRAPHY FOR PARENTS ADVANCED BUT WILL IT WORK FOR ME? - OUR GUARANTEE: We know our course works.
