Build Real Photography Skills, With Help When You Need It

You’ll learn how to use your Nikon Z camera effectively, and more. You’ll work on composition, learn how light behaves, develop a practical post-processing workflow, and explore creative approaches that apply no matter what you’re shooting.
Along the way, you’ll be practicing, reviewing your work, and getting feedback when you’re unsure why something worked or didn’t.

MEET YOUR TEACHER

John Peltier

I've been teaching in-person photography lessons since 2017, primarily to beginners using various camera models. Everyone has the same struggles, and I'm sure you do too. I've brought a proven method of addressing those struggles to these online courses.

Aside from teaching, my photography passion is storytelling. I've completed photodocumentary projects worldwide over the past 15 years, in locations such as Haiti, Guatemala, and Uganda, and have been featured in publications including New York Magazine, the Los Angeles Times, and the U.S. National Park Service.
