Moving Beyond Automatic Settings With Your Digital Camera


PHOTOGRAPHY, TECHNOLOGY, & DIGITAL SKILLS -
Fall/Winter 2025

This 2-session course will introduce students to their DSLR’s priority and full manual modes. By learning how and when to use each mode, students will gain greater creative control over their cameras. More advanced composition concepts will also be discussed based on students questions, levels and experience.   

Students will need to have a DSLR, mirrorless, or fixed lens camera capable of aperture and shutter priority and full manual modes. Long exposure and light painting will require a tripod.

  • Full Manual Mode 
  • Advanced Compositions

Kenrick Fischer

I am a multi-disciplined artisan with a strong connection to light, nature, and conservation.

With my camera in hand, I capture compelling images of nature with the hope of inspiring others to appreciate and protect the wonders around us all. I create videos to encourage outdoor exploration. Having a long career as a professional lighting designer I developed a keen eye for lighting and composition. Carrying over with me the love of storytelling, I strive to bring these passions into each image I create, images that I hope inspire others to explore and see the world around with the sense of wonder I have each time I venture out.
