Photography is a very eye-catchy and engaging art form. It all started as a way to save our memories and also tuned into an art form. Most of us have at least tried it once, and if it interested us in some way, we have got ourselves a new camera. It might have just started as a way to keep the record of your hikes or trips and now slowly becoming a serious hobby. As a beginner, it might be hard to get through all the concepts, those many buttons on the camera, the scary technical terms and the skills required to create a decent photograph. The basic photography course aims to provide you with the best knowledge you need to start building better photos. We understand the confusions of a beginner, and we focus on explaining the concepts which can be easily grasped by someone who is new to the camera.
The topics we discuss in the workshop are carefully tailored to make the participants comfortable with the concepts and easily understand them.
