Hi ,
I'm still pedaling through Transylvania during my month-long bike tour of Romania, but I wanted to let you know that my online video course, Outdoor Photography Essentials is now live!! And, I wanted to make sure you had the correct link. I'm working off an iPad during my trip, and things don't always get formatted correctly.
As a newsletter subscriber, you can get my course for $25 off for a limited time! Use this link to save:
Let's face it, it's hard to capture great adventure and action photos, no matter if you're shooting extreme sports or your kid's soccer game. This kind of photography requires a special set of techniques and a comprehensive bag of creative and compositional tricks. If you don't have that stuff down, you'll have trouble nailing great images.
That's why I created this course- to give you the tools and tips you need to make it happen. Even if you already know this stuff, my course will help you pull all of these techniques together and show you how to apply them in a real world setting. There's
something for everyone here. It's not just hardcore action, these are universal concepts you face every time you go shoot.
During this class, you'll learn the settings you need for great
results and how to anticipate potential scenes before they unfold. Then, you'll find the best adjustments to make in the face of quickly changing conditions like light and moving subjects. You'll also discover the best ways to shoot people and action.
To begin, I'll show you some important camera settings to check before shooting and how to adjust them for optimal results. I'll also give you some tips for anticipating the potential for a great scene even before
it unfolds!

Then we'll focus on handling your camera in the field. I'll teach you to capture handheld shots from multiple perspectives, keeping your camera stable and secure the entire time. Then, I'll share pointers for proper exposure, so you can get fantastic results from scenes with high dynamic range. If you've ever wondered whether a DSLR or mirrorless camera is best for you, we'll cover that
too.
You'll see how to make effective creative decisions based on light, even if it's tricky light, and I'll even give you simple ways you can recompose a shot to improve your results.
I'll illustrate how color, intensity and direction of light changes throughout the day, so you can choose the effect
you want. Each of these factors makes a dramatic difference!
I'll also walk you through the process of choosing the right lens, and give you tips to make the most of wide–angle, normal and
telephoto lenses. That way you'll always know what you need for a savvy selection. All the while, you'll gain a deeper understanding of selective focus, depth of field, framing and composition, even with difficult action scenes.
It's really exciting to team up with
Craftsy, because they approach learning in a way that's unlike any other. With every Craftsy class, you can watch your lessons anytime, anywhere and revisit as many times as you'd like — forever. You can also ask me specific questions and post your photos for me to see. It's truly interactive learning. Just like a workshop.
I hope you'll take advantage of this special offer of $25 off- it's only good for a limited time, so click the link below for your special price. Either way, you can watch the into for free and see what it's all about.
Thanks for reading and best of luck with your photography this month!
