This is a group for photographers wanted to learn the basics in photography, lighting, posing, understanding all camera settings, f/stop, iso, shutter speeds, stobe lighting, outdoor lighting... ect. All skills levels are welcome, and I started this group to help those photographers with no formal training to take their images to the next level. The basics are very simple to learn, but using them to say what you want to say is difficult. Why take a picture when you can learn to build an image.
