Photography is all about producing images, but it’s often about more. Behind the camera, we’re in control of how we compose and capture a scene. In the darkroom (or nowadays, in editing software), we perfect the image we want to express.
In this set of online courses, you’ll find ones that teach you how to use your camera. You’ll also find courses that teach you how to photograph various subjects and edit your photographs in post processing. Whether you shoot as a creative outlet, for commercial ends, or just to up your Insta game, these courses can help.
