Course description

Learning to See is the first-ever course co-taught by David and Rich, combining their expertise to help you truly think and see like a photographer. You’ll start by exploring what makes someone a photographer and why crafted stories beat random snapshots every time. The course delivers quick wins like mastering lens compression, using the rule of thirds, and finding beautiful light. You’ll also learn practical tricks like body blocking, leading lines, and blurring backgrounds to elevate your shots fast. Demos walk you through real-world challenges, like removing distractions or handling ugly locations, so you can shoot confidently anywhere. You’ll also get a five-part formula for crafting powerful visual stories that actually connect. By the end, you’ll have a toolkit of magic-level tricks to make your friends jealous of every image you post.
