Local photographer offers camera classes in Jan., Feb.

Shawn Pierce Photography is offering a digital photography class for January and February.

The award-winning commercial and portrait photographer will teach amateur shutterbugs how to get the most out of their camera every time.

This class, geared toward the novice photographer, will give attendees an introduction to exposure, composition, lighting, and camera settings. They'll also learn how to shoot in any situation, whether on location or in the studio, with ample light or in low light.

Digital Photography 101 is perfect for those who have just purchased their first camera or for those who want to get the most out of their camera by getting out of auto mode and taking the first steps on their photography journey.

Each class is split into two 2.5-hour sessions. The first session starts with a brief look back at the history of photography; then Pierce will take the class through how cameras work and how to use them.

The second session is about creating images, and teach how to compose better photos and read light and how to use light effectively.

Both sessions conclude with hands-on instruction and demonstration.
Digital Photography 101 classes are available in January and February with an introductory rate of $199.
