My Jouney from Beginner to Pro-

Once upon a time, I was a young photographer with a burning passion for the craft. I remember the day I picked up my first camera - a Canon AE1 film camera. I felt the weight of it in my hands and knew that I had found my calling. But, as I began my journey to become a professional photographer, I quickly realized that there was so much more to it than just pointing and shooting.

It was the early 80's, and there was no photography school where I lived. In fact, the only photography schools were in New York, Miami, Chicago, and LA - all to far away for me. But I was determined to learn, and so I set out on my journey alone. I shot everything everywhere for years, determined to master my craft. I was on a quest to capture the perfect shot, but the technicalities of photography eluded me - shutter speed, aperture, color temperature, ISO. It was frustrating, and many times I thought of giving up.

Friends and family told me that I would never make it as a photographer, but I refused to believe them. I was on a hero's journey, and I knew that every journey has its struggles. I kept going, writing down every shot setting and reviewing my notes with the photos when I picked up my film from the lab. Back then, you didn’t know what you shot until you picked up your photos from the lab. It was scary sometimes as you had to then go and share what you captured with a client.

I went years guessing and hoping that I shot the last session correctly, and sometimes I discovered I missed the mark and had to reshoot. I struggled to just get the basics of how to work the camera and went without making money. It was so hard for so long! But, I never forgot why I started. I just loved taking photos!

And then, one day, it all came together.

I'll never forget that feeling of everything clicking into place. Since then, I have had the cover of Time, Newsweek, People, and The National Inquirer! I have been able to make a great living just doing what I love the most… shooting photography professionally.

Now, after 42 years of hard-earned knowledge, I want to share what I've learned with others who may be struggling. If you're like me when I first started and struggle with the camera settings or understanding color temperature, I want to help you on your own hero's journey. My teaching style has helped many folks like you transition from a beginner photographer to a pro. And I know that you can do it too!

Don't give up on your dream. Embrace the journey, learn from your mistakes, and keep pushing forward. The path to mastery may be difficult, but it's also incredibly rewarding. And with my guidance, you can begin shooting like a pro in just a few lessons.

Remember, every hero starts somewhere. It's not where you start, but where you end up that matters. So take that first step, grab your camera, and let me show you the way. Your hero's journey to becoming a professional photographer starts now!

Chris really packs a lot of great information in this video, with high quality visuals and multiple examples that really help clarify each point he makes. You must understand and master fundamentals to take great pictures, and Chris covers the basics well then expands on them to really increase the understanding. I can’t imagine packing more information in a presentation of this length, and the delivery is very professional.

"I have worked with many photographers over decades in advertising and marketing. Chris is always my first call. Not only does he have a great eye and an extensive knowledge of the perfect marriage of equipment and shot, he's a master of composition. When it comes to communicating that knowledge to students, he is engaging, articulate, and personable. If you're interested in really learning photography, from A to Z, you can't do better than Chris' program, which I heartily recommend! Happy shooting!”
