The Basics of Photography

Have you ever wondered what Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO really do, or why photographers sometimes choose manual settings instead of letting the camera do all the work?
In this beginner-friendly workshop, commercial and lifestyle photographer Riccardo Mattei will guide participants through the fundamental concepts of photography and camera operation. We will explore the Exposure Triangle, learn how Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO interact, and understand how these settings influence depth of field, motion blur and image quality.
The session will also cover camera modes, autofocus systems, exposure compensation, metering modes, RAW vs. JPG, white balance and a few practical accessories such as ND filters.
Whether you use a DSLR, mirrorless camera or an advanced smartphone, this workshop will help you understand the technical principles behind great photographs and give you more confidence in controlling your camera creatively.
