At The Creative Guide, we're committed to making photography accessible through both live and recorded courses. We believe active learning happens best when you receive the right information, in the right amounts, exactly when you need it. Our courses focus on providing relevant hints and tips tailored to your skill level, helping you avoid unnecessary overload.

We even have a FREE 64 Page eBOOK to help you get started. Just follow the link and fill in your details.

We know how confusing photography and technical jargon are for the average camera and software user. Our approach involves using simple language, breaking concepts into digestible pieces, and reinforcing key ideas.

Our training materials, including courses and eBooks, feature full-color visuals to clarify each point clearly and effectively. These have all been fine-tuned in a classroom setting to ensure each tip works well in the real world.

We avoid stating what camera, lens, or software is ‘best.’ The truth is that there is no such thing! The answer to ANY question in photography goes like this: “It depends!” it depends on what you are shooting, it depends on the light, it depends on the lenses you have, and it depends on the maximum ISO you have. And on, and on, and on. 

In fact, the best camera may even be your phone!

We do not think you need new equipment. Your camera can still take the same pictures today that it could when you bought it. Our plan is to teach you how to use it much more effectively.

• We will remain brand neutral. We will never fool you into thinking a particular brand is ‘great’ because we are paid to say so. All brands are great.
• To always try to translate photography terminology in a way that relates to you and your camera.
• To never cram different levels into our courses; if a class has ‘beginner’s’ in the title, it is indeed a beginner’s course.
• To keep it fun!
