Photography Class: Master Your Camera Controls - Boston Waterfront Skyline Sunset Shoot

Take the mystery out of your camera settings in this hands-on photography class set against the stunning backdrop of Boston’s waterfront at sunset.


Designed for beginners and hobbyists alike, this small-group class focuses entirely on understanding your camera’s controls and how to use them with confidence in real-world conditions. Your instructor will guide you through essential settings like aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focus modes and white balance while explaining how each one affects your final image. Then, put your new skills into practice as you photograph glowing skyline views, harbor reflections and golden-hour light along the waterfront.


This relaxed and approachable class is suitable for DSLR, mirrorless and advanced compact cameras of any brand or model. Whether you’ve recently upgraded your gear or simply want to stop relying on auto mode, you’ll leave with a stronger understanding of your camera and more confidence shooting independently.

Very nice group of people and made sure every detail was planned out thoroughly. Ron, who was our photographer instructor, was very good as laying out how our camera works. Very nice introduction.
