Awestruck Photos, LLC After years behind the camera, I'm working to put you there! The hourly rate for one-on-one instruction is $100.

Awestruck Photos offers individual and group photography instruction to bring out the photographer in you! Individually tailored instruction is available and can be arranged directly with Dawn through Messenger or text. These sessions are uniquely designed based on your stated goals, using any camera including your cell phone. Some common requests include how to take better pictures, file editing

and storage systems, and tips on setting up a photography business and working with clients. You can bring a friend and get instruction for two for $150 per hour. Group events are hosted by https://virginiabeachphotographygroup.com/. Additional information for classes hosted by Virginia Beach Photography Group:

Beginner Photography classes are three hours, hold a maximum of 6 students and require a DSLR. The priority is to teach you how to use manual settings to gain technical control of your images, with a second class offering composition and perspective to produce attention grabbing photos that draw the viewer in. Meetups are two-hour guided photography gatherings of up to 12 people using any camera, including cell phones. While these are instructor-led, they offer experiential opportunities, not curriculum-driven teaching. I am a consultant for Virginia Beach Photography Group. I design, schedule, and lead the events; they handle advertising, set pricing, and manage registration.

Understanding exposure gives you control over the quality of your pictures, and getting the composition right upgrades those pictures to art! Beginner's Photography I class teaches you all about how your camera handles light in manual mode, and Beginner's Photography II works on how to visualize the image before you click the shutter button to produce a compelling image.

Our next Beginner's Photography I class is scheduled for Saturday, July 11, 2026 at 9am. This class will cover the exposure triangle and the part that ISO, aperture, and shutter speed play individually in achieving the perfect exposure. We'll delve into how to choose which setting to prioritize based on the image you want to produce, and how lighting and composition impact those choices. There will be practice activities, and plenty of time for one-on-one coaching.

Go beyond YouTube videos and get your questions answered while gaining hands on experience. Registration is required: https://virginiabeachphotographygroup.com/
