Welcome to CameraShy Online Photography Courses!

  • Are you the frustrated owner of a new Digital SLR?
  • Are you not able to create the shots you REALLY want?
  • Do you know your only using about 20% of your camera's potential?
  • Do you desperately want to move out of Auto Mode?
  • Have you taken other digital photography classes but you're still frustrated using your camera?

If you can answer YES to any of these questions then you've arrived at the right place.  I'm here to help you!

I've been teaching digital photography classes for 10 years and been in the imaging industry for 21 years. ( Hey - I started young!) So I know what you want to learn about using your camera.

 

I'll answer the important questions like:

"How can I make my backgrounds blurry?"

"Can you help me take action shots?"

"What do all these buttons do?!"

"Please explain Aperture and Shutter Speed one more time!"

I promise you will feel confident in using your DSLR out of auto mode and getting the shots that you REALLY know you can time in no time at all.

This is what some of my past students have to say about CameraShy Photography Courses:

"Envision having a sports car, keys and full tank of gas but have no real idea on how to drive it. This was my situation. I almost gave up but then I found Ingrid. Her Photoshop crash course is perfect on giving you more than enough tools to go home and start editing your photos. It is obvious that not only does she love photography but also loves to see others get excited about photography. Her teaching style is very relaxed and disarming. When you leave, you will feel very encouraged and excited to start practicing your new acquired skills." Becky

"CameraShy was exactly what I was looking for: a casual environment to learn some basics.  Ingrid is easy to understand and what she teaches is easily applied.  I will be returning for more and bringing friends..." Liza Cochran, Atlanta

"My one-on-one with Ingrid was exactly what I needed to jump start me into a series of classes.  With her help, my camera and I became much closer and I got a lot  more out of my classes than I would have "Pre-Ingrid.  Plus, she is a a joy to know!!" Debby Fleischer, Atlanta


"Taking Ingrid's class helped to improve my photography and confidence behind the lens. Her knowledge of my camera and coverage of information on it's features has allowed me to take my skills to the next level." Cheri

  • There's also a discussion board so you can ask the group for help or you can also ask me a question directly.
  • The course is designed be be completed in 5 weeks, taking time to put into practice what you learn each week and posting your best work in the Flickr group for critique and feedback.  You can of course do it much faster if you have time or take your time and spread it out over a much longer period. - It's Up to You!
