“…I went to photography school for about a year and I didn’t learn as much as I learn with these e-books. It is easy to understand and it has so much information. I strongly recommend this e-book… Thank You for sharing your knowledge, and for the tips. I love them. ” – Astrid H.
The best way to learn photography is plenty of hands-on practice. This is even more important for beginners-
For beginners, reading from a camera manual is THE absolute worst way to learn photography.
How can you be expected to learn such a practical skill, by reading a boring instruction manual? You can’t. It’s not gonna happen. Here’s something that will help though. It’s a powerful guide produced by TWO master photography teachers…
👋 Say hello to your new... DSLR Crash Course eBook – 68 pages that will help you understand & control your camera!
The basic photography techniques taught in this beginners’ guide are distilled from a proven in-person photography workshop. Having this e-book is just like being there at one of these raved-about workshops.
This is not another e-book on photography theory. Instead, it’s designed to quickly get you up to speed with basic photography principles, and provides a platform for you to experiment and refine your techniques.
You'll learn...
- How you can get the correct exposure in ANY situation. (this one eludes even the most seasoned photographers)
- A practical in-depth breakdown of ISO, Aperture and Shutter speed. (It's important to master the fundamentals)
- Handling difficult backlighting (backlighting- the thorn in every photographer’s side)
- Discover what metering modes are and how you can effectively use them to create the images you want, every time.
- The Focus, Lock, and Recompose Method (a tried-and-true method for shooting competently and quickly)
As well as...
- Choosing The “Correct” Auto-focusing Mode (honestly… did you know there could be a correct, or incorrect, mode)

- A shootout between Wide Angle Lens vs Telephoto Lens. So you'll have the knowledge to confidently pick what to use in each situation.
- Understanding Depth of field, so you can create those highly desirable images with amazing background blur.
- PLUS - An entire section of image case-study breakdowns where you'll be talked through, how to properly meter each scene, what exposure mode would work best, what the correct color balance setting would be, and whether you should be concerned about shutter speed, aperture or both... For each shot. (This alone is worth 10x the price of this guide)
- OPTIONAL UPGRADE: Unlock the entire Premium eBook library, spanning multiple topics and concepts! (over $1829+ value)

This eBook is adapted from an in-person photography workshop.
The basic photography techniques taught in this beginners’ guide are distilled from a proven in-person photography workshop. Having this e-book is just like being there at one of these raved-about workshops.
Unlike a regular book, it’s designed to quickly get you up to speed with basic photography principles, and provides a platform for you to experiment and refine your techniques.
This is not another e-book on photography theory. Instead, you’ll receive plenty of hand-holding using easy-to-understand conversational language.
Step-by-step exercises, made just for you...
We start off with a section of ‘Photography Exercises’ to familiarize you with the basic techniques of photography, using a show-and-tell approach.
This breakthrough approach has been proven time and again to be effective in getting beginners to start experimenting intelligently with photography.
This approach emphasizes deep understanding, and strives to make photography simple for you.
Analyze how images are photographed.
In the accompanying section called ‘Analyzing The Shot’ You’ll be taken through a professional photographers thought process with the shots that they have taken.
Describing how they arrived at the combination of settings used for each shot, and further advice on how you can apply these techniques to your own photographs.
Designed for easy reading.
Great care has been taken to design an e-book that is easy to use, elegantly crafted and most importantly, effective in teaching you photography.
This e-book is horizontally laid-out, which maximizes your screen area for reading (instead of the portrait orientation that many e-books use).
Paragraphs are narrower for easier reading, and diagrams/photos are used throughout to illustrate each point.

Go from this…
- Constantly comparing yourself to other photographers wondering why you just can't seem to figure it out.
- Wasting hours sorting through pages of online information–only to be left more confused about photography, than when you started.
- Feeling overwhelmed & demotivated because it doesn't feel like you're making progress with your photography.
- Being too scared to share your work because it feels like your photos aren't 'quite' good enough yet.
To this…
- Having a simple, step-by-step system for capturing beautiful photographs. A system that makes sense to you, and that you can refer back to for years to come!
- Finally developing your 'photographer's eye' and noticing creative & unique photo opportunities in ANY situation.
- Being able to look back on all of your past images that didn’t quite work, and finally understand why!
- Confidently sharing your photos with friends and family! And getting a sense of pride when they comment "WOW! How'd you get this amazing shot?!"
💬 Here's a personal message to you, the aspiring photographer:
Capturing beautiful photos with your DSLR doesn’t have to be hard.
This DSLR Crash Course is the electronic version of an acclaimed, short, single-session photography class that has been running since 2006. Having this e-book is just like being there at the class, because the exercises that the class participants go through have been distilled into this e-book.
Tips for getting the most from this guide-
Be sure to hold your DSLR while reading this e-book. Exercises are highlighted in color, perform the exercise by following the instructions, at the end of which you will discover a technique. Try not to skip ahead when performing the exercises, as they are inter-related.
After going through the exercises, move on to the section called “Analyzing The Shot” in order to see how those techniques are applied in real picture-taking situations.
Most importantly – Enjoy the guide.
Don’t let camera controls cripple your ability to produce beautiful photography!
See you on the other side.
