Essentials 101 Photography Program - Master Class Series. Age group:22- 50 years old
"I bought my Cannon 750D many years ago and was doing nature photography on auto modes. I wanted to learn basics of photography but was hesitant and unsure. Thanks to Santosh ji who made my photography learning experience very smooth and easy. After learning different modes, technical aspects and most difficult but a must of this journey, exposure triangle, I felt very confident with my camera. He is very patient, clears every doubt and gives sufficient time to complete the course as per learner's convinience. I definitely recommend him to everyone who are passionate about photography but don't know how to use the camera with its full capacity. Thanks Santosh ji for this wonderful learning experience. Learning will go on. "

"My experience learning photography with Santosh was really amazing. He started from the absolute basics and went to few more complex topics such as framing and composition etc. We did some practical sessions as well with white balance and flash photography. I was able to practice photography and come back to class to get feedback on my photos as well. Santosh was super friendly and approachable, you could discuss your doubts, ideas and thoughts candidly. The best part of the program was that it was flexible with respect to dates and pace. Overall, it was a great experience learning from Santosh. "

"Not only is he an accomplished photographer, he is also professional in imparting knowledge on photography in a simple but very effective way. Our 14 year old daughter has under his guidance, gained a lot in the field of photography through his course. His methodolgy for training is systamatic and well drafted. Besides theory, he insists on practical usage of the camera during the training sessions. This has given her an indepth knowledge of the technical aspects of a camera, particularly in the selection of camera settings. It has been a very knowledgeable experience for our daughter. It is a sense of achievement that we get, seeing our daughter using her DSLR in a professional way, adapting instantly to various scenarios and environment. We wish Santosh the very best. "

"I had a great learning experience with Santosh Sir. Even before getting started, we had a long conversation around the camera I had, lenses as well as my interests around photography. Trust me, I had my experiences with weekend photography workshops / classroom types training which burden you with loads of info and you lose grasp of most things by the end of the day. Mr Santosh ensured that we took the course at a pace I could keep up with and had hands on sessions as well which helps you put in use the knowledge. I certainly am more confident to let go of the AUTO mode and use my camera the way its meant to be used. He ensures that you master the camera system and whatever additional lens/ flash/ tripods you may have. I would definitely recommend him for anyone who wants to get out of the Auto mode and dive into the art of photography. "

"I enrolled my 11 year old in this class half expecting her to complete the course. I was surprised to see her attend the sessions and interact in the class. Personal attention and details made the class enjoyable. Suggestion : A practical session covering different ways of capturing single subject can be added. Also pics clicked by students can be analyzed on screen. "

"The course was very informative. I've learned a lot since I started the course. My interest in photography increased as the classes went by. Would have loved to go out and take pictures with guidance more than just learning the theory part of it. But overall it was a great experience. "

"I have approached him with zero knowledge in photography, the basic and advanced concepts are explained in-depth way. It provided all sorts of insight, techniques, and knowledge about aspects of photography and helped me to find out which camera suits me the best for my career. This course was very useful and informative content. Now at least I started practising so. Thanks and this course is highly recommended! "

"It was a great learning experience from you sir. I did suggest one of my student Nithin, who is passionate of photography (wild life) to attend Mr Santhosh studio. After attending classes of Santhosh sir, Nithin perception about photography has changed in him, as what are the basic need to click a photo and to be different from normal clicks of every other non-photographer. This is ever important to differentiate between normal ones and professional. I am very happy that my student has developed the science of photography skills and even life skill from Mr. Santhosh. I would suggest Nithin to continue in furthermore classes and in the hands of you, sir, he can achieve of becoming the best photographer. Wish to work in associate with you sir. Thank you. "

I had a wonderful time while explaining LR and impromptu, I had to rework the curriculum to fit in the many photography concepts that you had to understand first so you could understand the LR processing workflow better. Thanks for the opportunity. Do keep in touch and I can assist with any questions you might have in the future. Regards, Santosh J www.visualauthors.in
