Fraser Valley Portrait Photography Classes

Portrait photography is a growing trend in the market. With all the hype in social media, everyone likes to have a few lovely portraits. With that in mind, I scheduled two portrait classes. These workshops are for intermediate to advanced users. 

You can pick up a class separately, or register for both as a bundle and save big.

From Camera Settings to Posing 

The Portrait Photography Classes cover various types of skills, such as camera settings, posing, interaction with models, understanding the light, and so much more.
