I wanted to get back into manual photography after years of defaulting into auto options on the cameras I was using. This class got me right back into taking pictures. Lou helped inspire and gave me the support I needed during the class. She helped me understand my camera better, get all the settings and options working as I needed them to. Once set up we did a few tests and exercises to make sure everything worked. Lou gives great feedback and tips to think about while taking pics. This class has inspired me, I haven't put my camera down since. Thank you!
