One-on-one Class for Four Sessions

Your camera should have manual settings on it for you to get the most from your lessons. How do you know if your camera has manual settings?

Look in your owner's manual. Does it list a chapter on f-stops and shutter speed adjustments? Then it has manual settings. This four-week class is:

    • An hour or so
    • One-on-one
    • Meets when it is convenient for our schedules
    • For students 15 and older
    • For DSLR or 35 mm camera students; bring your camera, extra battery and owner's manual to every class
    • Wear comfortable shoes and dress for weather because we will be going outdoors.
    • Can be taught at the Purloin Studio, Menomonee Falls, or at another location
    • Susan also teaches a more advanced class
    • Credit cards accepted
    • Gift certificates available; they make great gifts!
    • $190 is all it will cost to learn to be a better photographer. ($350 per couple)
