Beginner Digital Photography Classes

A complete creative workshop for the photography enthusiast

Learning photography is easier than you think

Did you get a new DSLR or mirrorless camera and are uncertain where to begin? Have you had your camera for a while and are still confused about how to use it? Relax, we understand how intimidating photography can be, and we are here to help. Learning photography is easy with the proper instruction.

Beginner Photography ONE demystifies the tech and goes well beyond the basics of camera operation. It is designed to get you away from Auto mode and shooting in Manual with confidence and ease. The first step in taking better photos is knowing how to use your camera, and that’s precisely what you will learn in this fun, ego-free class.

Where Beginner ONE focuses on the camera, Beginner Photography TWO focuses on you. More specifically, the creative you. This class is about more than equipment and settings; it is about learning to open your eyes to the world around you and to observe the beauty in everyday things. It is mindfulness in action. Open yourself to creativity and learn how to see in new and exciting ways so you can express yourself and fully connect with life… your life.

What others are saying about our classes

My 13 year old daughter and I participated in the Beginner One class. I can’t say enough good things about the class - and about Braddley. The content was just the right amount for a beginner. The content is well organized. And Braddley is an excellent teacher. My daughter grew from having virtually no knowledge of how to operate a DSLR to shooting in manual. The class wrapped up with a great outing where she was able to take some amazing photographs. Highly recommend!

I took beginner 1 class from shutter bug. I have always been interested in photography but never really understood how camera works. Course is built for people to understand technical aspects of photography. Brad gave us exercises and material to follow. I enjoyed being in this class and I am planning to take beginner II class soon.

I've been reading articles, watching You Tube and attempting to digest material presented in several Udemy online classes, but none of them were able to get me to the A-Ha! moment I experienced with this class. Braddley is an excellent instructor and has a real gift for breaking down the technical stuff into easy-to-understand concepts. Already enrolled in Beginner Two!

This was a long time goal of mine - to really learn how to use all of the functions and settings of my camera to make it do what I want (I am not an "auto" setting kind of person!). This class broke everything down into bits of information that completely made sense, and the knowledge I gained made me more excited than ever to take photos. I highly recommend Shutterbug training!

I just finished Beginner 1 class and it was worth every penny. I've taken an embarrassing amount of beginner classes, and each one gave me some learnings, but Shutterbug Training excels in actually educating you. Not only did I manage to breakthrough the tech-talk, I am using the lessons in reality. Why did this happen you may ask? Previous instructors had plenty of expertise, but couldn't impart their knowledge to a student. Knowing and instructing are two separate skills. Braddley did both very well. I'll be signing up for more classes! In the meantime, I'll do my part: Practice. Practice. Practice. Thank you!
