  • Best General Photography Class on Brit + Co

    I watched several "basic" photography videos and this one was far and above the best one. The instructor (who has an amazing food blog with the best recipes btw) really takes the time to explain how aperture, shutter speed and ISO work together when taking photos. This class is a little longer than others, but I think it's well worth the extra time. She also runs through several examples and compares photographs with different settings. One thing I'll mention is the video editing was not great on this one. Drastic lighting shifts, video that didn't match up with audio. Not a huge deal, but something I noticed.

  • Enjoyed the Class

    Very informative and well put together, definitely recommend.
