About this course
Build your wildlife photography skills from the ground up: choosing the right gear and support, dialing in core settings, harnessing light, and crafting strong compositions (framing, rule of thirds, negative space, depth of field). You’ll learn targeted techniques for birds and pets, research-driven strategies for wild subjects, ethical best practices and working with local guides, how to protect gear in extreme environments and pick the right bag, plus a streamlined post-shoot workflow for culling and natural-looking edits – ending with personal projects to sustain growth and creativity.
