From Auto to Manual is a full-day, in-person photography workshop designed for true beginners using DSLR or mirrorless cameras.
If you’ve ever felt intimidated by your camera or stuck shooting in Auto mode, this hands-on workshop will help you finally understand how your camera works and how to confidently shoot in Manual mode.
You’ll learn:
• How ISO, aperture, and shutter speed work together
• How to control light, motion, and focus
• Basic composition and natural light techniques
• How to shoot with intention instead of guessing
This workshop includes guided instruction, indoor studio practice, outdoor shooting, and real-time feedback from professional photographer Lori Hanson.
