Learn Digital Photography The Smart Way Do you own a DSLR but still take average, boring photos? "Now You Can Master Any DSLR Camera And Take Gorgeous, Attention-Grabbing Photos By Following Step-By-Step Video Tutorials!" "Use your computer, laptop or smart phone to get expert advice with easy-to-follow instructions whenever you need it!" Hi there, Evan Sharboneau here... As you probably know, I've helped over 9.2 million photographers to create stunning images using a digital camera. Above is an example of my recent personal work Now, I've got something NEW for you - and it's very cool. After helping beginners for 5 years, I see exactly what's stopping you from taking photos that really impress your friends and family... and will sell online, at shows, and even galleries. So if you're struggling to get the most out of your camera and finally be recognized for your own amazing photographs, then what I'm about to share will make you extremely happy... I Used To Be Like You These bad photos were taken before I discovered professional strategies Look, I understand how it feels to compare your own photographs with what we see in magazines, books, and online forums. As a beginner, it's not only frustrating but can get depressing, wondering "how was that shot taken?"... thinking "it's probably because they have a better camera than me"... or "I'll take photos that good, eventually". Like you, I didn't know the secrets. I couldn't afford expensive cameras or classes. But I wanted to take good photos TODAY, not "someday"... Are These Questions And Concerns Stopping You From Becoming A Better Photographer? Do you own a DSLR camera but take mediocre photographs - a sign that you lack the skill and confidence to get the best results? Have you thought about upgrading your equipment, believing that will improve your photos? Are you lost when it comes to exposure, aperture, ISO/ASA, depth of field, lighting, lenses, filters, post-production and other difficult concepts? Do you still have questions or feel overwhelmed after reading blogs, forums, books, and tutorials? Have you thought about taking photography classes - but want to save time and money? Do you think you're not ready to be a professional - a mindset that you must overcome to succeed, get recognized, and sell your own photos? Bad Photos Are Not Your Fault More old photos of mine. Do your photos look like these? So many new photographers and hobbyists get stuck on buying equipment. And they spend months hunting for ways to improve their skills. Yet, after all that, your photos are average. Or worse. Here's the truth: it's really NOT your fault! I'm telling you, I've spent hundreds of hours digging through blogs and forums, reading books and manuals, watching YouTube and DVDs. Guess what. After going through ALL of the training material out there, I've found NONE that will turn you into a pro, step-by-step. They always have missing pieces. Questions without answers. Nobody says exactly how the best images are made. You're just expected to "spend a lot of time practicing"! People believe that's a good thing, but it can actually be wasted time and energy. Doing something over and over again is exhausting. It takes years to figure stuff out and become a professional that way... if you get there at all! There's a better strategy... It Takes Years To Become A Professional... If You Don't Know The Shortcut These shots were taken by me after I learned the secrets of professionals... How did I go from beginner to having photographs showcased on DeviantART, Flickr, print ads, billboards, posters, magazines, and book covers? Well, I never took classes. Anywhere. Ever. Instead, I went around my town and shot photos with a low-end Nikon D50. My first attempts were "ordinary", nothing special. Online I saw photos better than mine and literally thought they were mysterious. I couldn't figure out how they did it! But then... I discovered a few BASIC PRINCIPLES that make it possible to take good photos, every time, no matter what camera's in my hands. With these principles, I can take a couple shots and feel comfortable knowing at least one will be a "keeper". It's WAY BETTER than digging through 100 shots hoping that one is just "okay". Now I'm aware of WHAT to look for... WHEN to photograph... HOW to get the shot I want. And I can be sure that a photo will be good - even before it's taken. It's like I found a reflex that just "knows" when to click the shutter! Seriously, this changed my life... How To Quickly Learn Everything You Need To Create Amazing Photographs Your shots CAN look like these! Here's how... Let's be real: after getting a DSLR you found it takes more than reading the manual to get professional results from it. Then your hunt for more information and answers began. But there's a TON of information about photography, and it's so unorganized! I learned by doing meticulous research, putting it all together on my own. After spending years of applying what I discovered, I began sharing with friends online. Nobody prepared me for the flood of questions about landscapes, portraits, sports, studio photography... and my weird ability to just grab a camera and start taking great photos without any effort whatsoever. Now I've got the answers you're looking for, and they're here on this website. Just Imagine Being Able To... Choose the right DSLR on a budget and still get all the desired features Properly hold a DSLR and stop looking like a complete idiot out in the field Stop taking boring photos that nobody cares about and start taking creative, memorable photos worth sharing and selling GET CRISP, CLEAR SHOTS when photographing anything, including people, objects, skies and landscapes Avoid the 6 common beginner mistakes of COMPOSITION and easily create brilliant images instead Finally grasp a complete understanding of Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO for total control over MOTION and DEPTH OF FIELD Learn the "secret" time of day when most professional photos are shot Understand Exposure and Metering so pictures won't be too bright or too dark, but "just right" Properly select camera WHITE-BALANCE and stop worrying about photos coming out too orange or having incorrect, ugly colors Select the BEST LENSES to create appropriate, proportional, non-distorted, aesthetically pleasing images... no matter the situation Take JAW-DROPPING panoramic shots Use FOCUS correctly and know what focus points to avoid in a scene Choose the BEST EQUIPMENT, including flash, filters, camera bag, tripod, tripod head, batteries, battery recharger, strap, camera mount, and memory cards Use external FLASH to control motion, remove red-eye, add drama, and give your images an edgy, high-class, professional look... Use FILTERS to control light coming through the lens, remove glare, and even make the colors in a scene appear more saturated Get NATURAL HDR shots that don't look fake or "over-done" Correctly decide when to use a TRIPOD - and know when it's dumb to use one Capture sharp, correctly exposed photos in LOW-LIGHT SITUATIONS... with no motion blur or noise Take stunning photographs at NIGHT with or without using a flash or tripod Know where to put LIGHTS in relation to your subject/model and how to control the mood of portrait photos Choose effective LIGHT MODIFIERS, including umbrellas, soft boxes, beauty dishes and grids to establish the mood of the image (do you want the light to be dark, dramatic and shadowy? Soft and pleasing? Bright and happy? Do you want soft pools of background light? When would you want light to create texture across surfaces, and when wouldn't you?) Know how to select a SOFTWARE package that fits your needs and budget Correctly EDIT IMAGES in post-production using Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom and Adobe® Photoshop® software And much, much more... Others started applying my advice and the results were pretty amazing... Photo by someone who took my advice It felt great when they started getting the same results as me... But Don't Just Take My Word For It "People thought my photos were from a travel magazine!" Why Does This Work So Much Better? The principles I discovered can turn nearly anyone into an "expert photographer". When it comes to getting better shots, you'll be AMAZED at how well they work. And these principles are essential if you want photography to be a secondary or even full-time income. Yet this information is hard to get. It's either hidden from the general public or scattered all over the place, unavailable in one location for easy access. NOW HERE'S THE SOLUTION: Everything you must learn to take professional quality images is on this website. You can finally start using your camera with confidence. Start taking your own amazing photographs that people will rave about and even pay money for, if that's your goal. Listen, I'm willing to tell you everything because I'm not afraid of competition. After being published all over the world, I've learned that it's actually more fun and rewarding to share what I discovered... the very same information that launched my career. My favorite part is when people send photos after using what I taught them. Bottom-line: it doesn't matter if you're brand new or have been struggling with photography for a long time... I want to help you. To make it easy, I took a video camera and recorded answers to all the top questions, and more. I carefully demonstrate how to use exposure and aperture, lenses, lighting, composition, software, and many other topics that people find difficult or confusing. What's better, I'll show you how to succeed... Without piles of books or college courses Without years of experimentation taking "average" photos With your choice of equipment, whether it's a $300 or $3000 setup And remember... this information applies to EVERY DSLR CAMERA YOU WILL EVER USE. No matter what camera you own or borrow, my videos reveal exactly how to get the results you want. It's right here: the guaranteed fastest way to improve your photography...

Value: $97 - Deciding how much to charge for Module 4 was difficult. I don't cover every tool in the software, but I do show how to use the best, most relevant ones to turn mediocre photos into stunning scenes. That could help improve many of your older shots. That said, I think this price is fair, but today I'm offering it for less... What Does It Cost To Join Photography Masterclass?

You're going to learn the same principles used by professional photographers, and some of them are impossible to find elsewhere...
