Metarch Photography Learning Hub

Workshops & Classes

Looking to level up your photography skills? We're excited to partner with Orble in San Diego County to offer in-person workshops designed to help you master your craft. Our classes are perfect for anyone from beginners to hobbyists, and we cover the fundamental skills you need to start creating great imagery.

Some topics we cover:

  • Intro to Photography: Learn the basics of your camera, including how to use manual mode, understand aperture, shutter speed, and ISO, and compose a great shot.

  • Camera Functions: A deep dive into all the buttons and settings on your camera so you can get the most out of your gear.

  • Intro to Lightroom: Get comfortable with the industry-standard software for editing and organizing your photos. We'll walk you through the basics of culling, editing, and exporting your work.

  • Concept Development & Execution: Learn advanced techniques combining elements like lighting, modifiers, location, and more to create show-stopping imagery.

We keep our class sizes small to ensure everyone gets personalized attention. Sign up for our mailing list and let us know what you're interested in, and we can get you on the list for our next session.
