Many people have asked me to take photography and editing classes. I am not so confident in teaching as of now. But in this blog I will tell you how I learned photography and editing. What are the learning options in Hyderabad as well as classes available online.
I learned photography as a subject in my MA Multimedia course, Kerala and basic photoshop editing in Arena Multimedia, Kerala.
My first DSLR was Canon 400D. Now I am using Canon 6D.
Lenses: Canon 50 mm 1.4, 135mm 2.0, 24 - 105mm
Editing softwares:
1) Aperture ( I have to shift to a new software as Mac's new OS won't support it)
2) Affinity Photo
Affinity Photo is a one time investment. It doesn't require monthly subscriptions.
