I have grown immensely as a photographer over this semester. At the beginning of this course, I only used auto settings on my camera and didn’t know much about the technical side of the camera. Working as a photographer at a car dealership, I had just written down the camera settings on a piece of paper as a guide. Now that I understand how to better work my camera, I can change the settings to fit each car and do my job better. 

Although I loved this course there were a few challenges that came with it. I had to have a lot of patience and take my time. Even though that was difficult at times, doing that allowed me to get the best outcomes. I didn't only learn all about composition, settings and exposure, I learned a lot about myself.

Before this course, I had always known what is considered good photography on social media but I have begun to develop my own style and finally feel like a real photographer. I am so happy that I decided to take this course, it has taught me a lot about how to take a good photograph, and that is something I will carry with me. I am so excited to work on so many more photography projects.
