You'll walk through aperture, shutter speed, iso, frame rates & camera sensors. This section aims to get you up to speed in exposing the perfect images and provides some go-to settings for different shooting scenarios.
Zoom or Prime? Close-up or Wide? Niles walks you through when to use different focal lengths, how focal length affects depth of field, and the common shot types you'll hear requested on a shoot.
Lighting will make or break your shot. The difference between a beautiful image and a bad image isn't usually the camera or lens but the lighting. Niles breaks lighting in an approachable way that you can take with you and use on your next shoot.
