Description
Photography for Beginners - DSLR Photography Camera Settings is the key to finally getting to grips with your DSLR!
"I love, love, love Rosie's courses! She is a fantastic instructor and engaging (I am a teacher by profession and can say she is a really great teacher). I have taken a bunch of other beginning DSLR classes and was overwhelmed. I was totally frustrated by my camera. THIS course was the first one I have taken and able to apply all that I learned right away.
This course is short, sweet, to the point. The difference in my photos has been amazing! She uncomplicates camera settings for you! I can go out and now know exactly where to start in manual mode and how and what to adjust. Her modules give just enough information without too much. It is enough to get you started taking beautiful photographs right away.
Her case studies at the end are particularly helpful as well. Start with this class and then add on her Creative Fundamentals class after. I love Rosie as a teacher and would definitely enroll for any of her other classes she creates in the future. Rosie - I'd love a beginning Lightroom class from you :-) .
Highly recommend this class for the beginning photographer and useful whether you have a Nikon or Canon camera".

Do you enjoy photography and have a gorgeous fancy camera but always find yourself using it only on auto mode?
Or perhaps you briefly tried out the different settings but ended up feeing completely confused and overwhelmed by photography?!
It's really exciting when you buy a new camera - you have all these hopes and visions for beautiful photography, but the reality of loads of confusing knobs and dials when you get it out of the box can be frustrating!
If you've felt disappointed with the photography you've been shooting on your DSLR (a camera where you can change the lenses) or bridge camera then this is the perfect photography course for you!

demystify all of the confusing settings and buttons on my camera! Now
that I am done I feel perfectly confident that I can take great pictures
in any environment." (five stars)

"Rosie's photography course is amazing! I have learnt so much in
the past few weeks. So much detailed information which allows me to
understand what photography is. Understanding how the aperture, shutter
speed & ISO works, I can now take photos using the Manual Mode with
confidence. I am so glad to get a chance to enrol in Rosie's photography
course and looking forward to increasing my knowledge and make
photography as a career. Thanks Rosie" (five stars)

In my Photography Beginners: DSLR Photography Camera Settings Course we take things at a really easy pace, thoroughly explaining all the key photography settings you need to know, how to adjust them and how to choose the correct photography settings in any given situation from dark rooms to bright sunny days. You'll get to watch me in action as I photograph events like a christening and how I adjust my photography settings inside the dark church, and what settings I choose outside in the bright sunshine to capture great family photos and candid photography.

"I found Rosie's photography course insightful, fun and inspiring. Her informal manner made the lessons feel like I had invited a friend round to teach me the basics of photography, and as a result, I think I digested the bite size tips more quickly. I feel like I've learnt a lot about photography in a very short space of time thanks to her clear communication and obvious talent. The fact that I can dip in and out of the videos at my leisure made the whole experience easy and
enjoyable."

"I love this course ! Rosie is great at breaking it down for you . Her lessons are well thought out and organized. I love the quizzes at the end of the chapter. Im getting the answers right so I know I'm learning! I took my camera out for the first time yesterday. I was able to easily apply what I learned. Each chapter builds on the next. I dont have a Cannon or a Nikkon camera. Familiarizing myself with my camera setting prior to taking a lesson was extremely helpful. Although I have a Sony A7RII I was able to follow along after I learned to navigate my camera's settings. Her lessons apply to any camera. I love her smile and and assuring attitude. I will take another course from Rosie."

Photography can feel like a really complicated hobby. There’s nothing more frustrating than having a beautiful camera, but not knowing how to get the best from it.
As an award winning professional photographer with ten years experience running my own business at Rosie Parsons Photography, it brings me so much joy to get feedback from students who say how my courses have finally helped them understand their DSLR. I love to inspire and encourage people with their cameras in their photography journey.
My work has been published in OK Magazine, Digital Photo Pro, Cosmo Bride, You & Your Wedding Magazine and on the cover of Professional Photographer, among others. I love shooting photography for Shutterstock and I’ve enjoyed sharing my photography tips as an invited expert for Photobox.
I currently have two photography courses on Udemy - DSLR Photography Camera Settings: Photography for Beginners and my just launched new course - Creative Fundamentals of Photography.
I love coming alongside students to help them take their photography to the next level and running the fabulous and friendly Facebook photography communities that have sprung up from the courses. It would be great to have you be part of that.

"Rosie's photography jumps out at me, amongst a sea of the many photographers out there, because her material is genuine, heartfelt, spontaneous and I just love how she captures moments. Her content, subjects and framing are spot on, and the colours always so vivid. They make me feel as though I am right there. I'm excited that she has started a photography course which will spread her knowledge, and teach how to shoot the way she does."
- Amanda Byram, TV presenter Total Wipeout
"Rosie has always been full of ideas and innovations, and her photography reflects this. She’s very much one of the leaders in her field."
- Terry Hope, Commissioning Editor, Photo Pro Magazine
"I love Rosie's candid, joyful style. The ordinary becomes beautiful and meaningful thanks to her use of colour and light and her talent for framing a shot. She has a knack of bringing sunshine to every image and that's what we wanted conveyed in our wedding photography - the happiness of the day. Rosie absolutely delivered on this and we were thrilled with the results!"
- Katie Appleton, European Consumer PR Manager, Canon
If you'd like to improve your photography, I would absolutely love to be the one to help you.
I look forward to seeing you on one of my courses soon :)
