How to Shoot Food Photography: Complete Guide for Beginners

Why I teach?

I believe that education makes the world a better place and our generation is so blessed with the availability of information specially online. Over the past years I have immersed in studying and researching and that’s when I discovered my calling for teaching. I did not want all the learnings to stop with me, I had a strong burden to share it with the world and somehow make someone’s life easier by collating and turning my mistakes, knowledge and experiences into a well organised online course. There is nothing more beautiful than giving and changing a person’s life through teaching.

How it all started

My husband and I found our passion for photography and videography back in 2013. We joined a team building activity out of town and when we came back our boss showed us a video of the whole trip. We were both so happy to see ourselves in video and we loved the idea that we can keep it forever. That is when we started studying capturing moments in a lifetime. We’ve invested in online courses, books, cameras, editing laptops and other photo and video equipment. It started as a hobby but a lot of friends and family encouraged us to turn it into a business and we did. In 2017 we launched our events photography and videography business. It immediately grew through referrals and repeat customers. We focused on capturing organic moments, creative storytelling and emotion. This made our clients very happy. We evolved from hobbyists to being one of the most in-demand photographer and videographer in our network. This opportunity allowed us to travel to different places (for free), meet and work with diverse group of people, sharpen our skills and live a life we never imagined. It all started with a desire to learn a new skill, actually learning it and cultivating it. If it happened to us I believe it can happen to anybody, even to YOU.

More about me

When I am not holding my camera, I am with my family and my always curious two year old boy. I spend most of my time being silly with my husband and son, watching movies and strolling outside. I also make DIY flashcards for my son cause I am obsessed with learning and teaching! I also love cooking and planning for our next vacation. During my free time I love to read books to learn new skills, to expand my knowledge and become a better teacher. Just like you I continue to take online courses as well so I can continue to improve and stay up to date.

Hello, I'm Paul. I'm a former Apple Technical Advisor and IT Service Desk Analyst, now a video editor and entrepreneur. I have a passion for simplifying learning and helping others succeed in achieving their goals through online courses.

Apple Technical Advisor and IT Service Desk Analyst for 8 Years

When I was in 3rd year college, I decided to work at a call center. I tried many times to get a job, but 20 companies rejected my application because I wasn't fluent at speaking English and I have no work experience. But I didn't give up. With the help of my girlfriend, who is now my wife, I trained myself to speak in English. After 6 months, I got my 1st job. I started low and worked my way up to a higher position in Technical Support. One year later, I got another job as an Apple Technical Advisor, where I used to help people with Apple products like Mac computers and iPhones. During that time, I was recognized as a top performer and won brand new iPads three times in a row. After 2 years, I finally landed my dream job as an IT Service Desk Analyst at a major international bank, where I resolved software and computer-related issues with a focus on delivering an excellent user experience.

10 Years of  Videography and Video Editing Experience

It all began as a hobby, filming vacation videos using my phone. I didn't go to film school, but with a strong passion for videography, I watched tons of videos and enrolled in online courses, teaching myself everything about proper video shooting and professional editing. Then, I invested in a DSLR. Our family and friends noticed the potential in our video skills and encouraged us to offer video services. After gaining years of experience, my wife and I launched a videography business, specializing in capturing moments at events like weddings and birthdays. I also honed my skills using Adobe Premiere Pro to enhance video quality. Throughout this journey, I received multiple recognitions and earned an eagle award in a video editing.

From 9-5 Job to Entrepreneurs

For a long time, I really wanted to be a businessman, but lack of funds and uncertainty about where to begin held me back. So, when I got a steady job, I started studying and learning from hundreds of books about entrepreneurs and personal development. Even though I faced many challenges, I didn't give up. With careful plans and the courage to leave our jobs, my wife and I tried again and finally achieved our goal. My wife and I successfully transitioned from working regular 9-5 jobs to becoming entrepreneurs. Now, we run our own e-learning business, generating passive income through online courses. This freedom lets us pursue our passions and do what we love.

Simplicity in Learning

I love being a student, but sometimes I struggle to understand complex ideas. That's why I know how important it is to explain things in a simple way. So, I focus on that when teaching. I want to simplify complex ideas to help you better understand and achieve your goals. I've helped over 63,500+ students from 182 countries all around the world learn video editing using Adobe Premiere Pro.

How to Master Any Subject

My teaching approach involves breaking down a subject into manageable and actionable steps, helping learners understand and apply specific skills or knowledge, and guiding them to reach a high level of proficiency. I emphasize detailed, step-by-step guidance and encouraging a deep understanding of the subject matter.

A Fun Fact:

After studying a book by Glenn Doman about right brain education, we began teaching our baby to read when he was only 3 months old. And you know what's amazing? By the time he turned 18 months old, he could read and say many sight words all by himself.
