It’s as easy as learning to fly a kite…;)

I’m happy to Chicago Kite Showannounce I’ll be offering a Digital Photography for Beginners online class this June. Here’s how this four week class will work:   Class enrollment will be limited  to six individuals, so sign up quickly to secure a spot by emailing me at john@batdorffphotography.com.    Each student must have a digital camera with a basic understanding of how to use it.  What I mean by basic is simply the ability to turn the camera on, point and shoot it.  If you can manage those three things then you’ve met all the prerequisites for this program.   So, you’re thinking it sounds cool, but what else do I need?  You should have internet access, a willingness to experiment, a good sense of humor and a little patience.   What if I don’t have a camera?  No worries, I can point you in the right direction based upon your needs. So, I have a camera, a basic working knowledge of how it works and a killer attitude so what’s next?   Each week I will assign a little homework (for instance, take a portrait) then each student will email me their assignment for critique.   I will in turn email back my thoughts, impressions, and suggestions.  The basic idea is to take beginning photographers to the next level.  I will be available via email to each student throughout the duration of the program (no worries about emailing too much).  The cost of the program is a reasonable $70.00 and payable via PayPal.   Like I said, this class if very limited and I’ve had many inquires, so if you’re serious I encourage you to sign up now or drop me a line with any questions.

Take care, John

  3. Elba, no worries. You don’t need a fancy camera. If you’re interested in the class just email me directly at john@batdorffphotography.com and I can walk you through the process. The class should be a ton of fun and I’m sure you would enjoy it. Take care, John

    Hi John:
    Do you anticipate holding more classes on-line for beginners. $50 is very reasonable and I would be very interested in learning more.
