iPhone Photography Academy

I need these online courses to help me supplement my course content in Photography 1 to incorporate the iPhone camera into my curriculum.

My Project

One of the common iPhone photography misconceptions is that the iPhone can’t be used for serious photography. While DSLR cameras are technically superior, the quality of any photo mostly depends on the photographer’s intent and creative vision.

As photographers, we often get caught up buying the latest photo gear thinking that it will help us take better photos.

But no camera can take a good photo without the photographer’s ideas.

That’s because your iPhone – just like any other camera – is a tool. And it’s a tool that can be used to take both poor and outstanding photos.

But with the right knowledge and the right techniques, you can use your iPhone to take photos that are so great that nobody would even believe they were taken with the iPhone!

By purchasing these courses, I will be able to use this knowledge to teach my photography students all of the features that they already have, but don't know yet about, on their iPhone camera.
