REVIEWS

MattC
A great primer
Sure, I took photos with my smartphone before I watched this course; but those were merely snapping photos. I had no idea how to use my smartphone the way I professional photographer would; and my thoughts on improving my photos was simply get a phone with a better camera. This course taught me techniques and thought processes to improve my photos. Most importantly, it taught how a smartphone camera works. My photos taken with my smartphone improved both during the course and after the course.
