YOUR INSTRUCTOR
MEET TIFFANY
I’ve had a passion for photography as long as I can remember, there is something so special about capturing the raw moments and I thrive on these candid, honest and real emotions. Over the years, I’ve transformed my passion into a thriving photography business that has taken me and my camera around the world and now I want to share my years of knowledge and insight with creatives who want to kick-start their career in professional photography.
I very much remember the feeling of standing behind a lens and wondering what I was doing. I barely knew how to change modes on the screen, much less how to adjust basic settings and make my vision come to life. If you can relate, be encouraged! I’ve been there. This course is what I wish I would have had back then, which is why I know it will help you.
