WHO IS THIS COURSE PERFECT FOR?

I was wondering...

➳   Have you ever uttered the words "I would love to learn photography" ?

➳   Do you own a Digital SLR camera that's been sitting neglected + unloved in your cupboard collecting dust for months? Years even?

➳   Have you played around with the features on your camera but feel frustrated and overwhelmed by all the buttons?

➳   Do you want to capture those fleeting 'firsts' of your little ones?

➳   Are you about to go on a big trip and want to capture your once-in-a-lifetime adventure and create stunning frame-worthy photographs?

➳   Does the thought of nailing the visual content for your website, blog or social media flood you with excitement and relief?

➳   Have you been dreaming of becoming a professional photographer but don't know where to start?

If you answered YES! to any of these questions, this is the course for you.

I created this course with goal kicking intentions to make Digital SLR photography appetising + easy-to-digest to get you mastering manual mode like a pro from anywhere in the world.

And the best part? You get LIFETIME ACCESS to the course. We all have busy lives so you're welcome to  work your way through the course content at your own pace.

SO WHAT DOES THE COURSE COVER?

But who the heck is

P-Journey

The first time I picked up a camera I click-click-clicked away and hoped for a decent shot. And every now and then (after lots of deleting) I’d strike gold! But I didn’t want an amazing shot to be the result of a fluke. I knew there had to be a better way! And when I launched my blog GEMMA PEANUT GALLERY, I simply couldn’t afford to hire a photographer every time I wanted unique and compelling images to beef up my blog posts. So I took the plunge and threw myself heart-first into learning photography and quickly realised that mastering manual mode was the key to seeing the world through a completely different creative lens. And thus, a hard core love affair with photography was born!  

The freedom and opportunities that have since opened up to me are immeasurable. To be able to earn a living doing what I love was something I didn’t think possible. And I’ve been lucky enough to have photographed some of the most captivating personalities in the world including Margot Robbie, Teresa Palmer, Phoebe Tonkin, Delta Goodrem, Mimi Elashiry, Ali Simpson, Jules Sebastian, Renee Bargh, Samantha Jade, Rachael Taylor, Melissa Ambrosini, Ashley Hart, Sjana Earp, Demi Harman, Dena Kaplan, Charlotte Best, Anna Heinrich, Eleanor Pendleton, Tash Sefton + Elle Ferguson.

I have had my camera since 2009 and have never taken it off auto. I wanted to be able to take quality travel photos and portraits and now I am confident enough to do that! It is very liberating to have control over the photos that I want to take.
