You probably own a smart camera, but you're unhappy with your pictures. And you know you've got more talent than what shows on your screen after a photo session. You're not alone. We all start there. This course is the result of such frustration, an arduous learning curve from probably the hardest school for photographers ever devised - newspaper and wedding photography. Borne from more than twenty years of wedding and editorial photography, picture perfect's comprehensive digital course is a manual of all the knowledge useful to people like you and I - not only the basics, but down-to-earth advice for people who don't have enough money to buy all the extras but who are happy to work around that on a shoestring budget.

So what will you learn in this course, and how? The course demands that you keep your camera next to you as you work through the material, and fiddle with it. Literally get to grips with it, so that when you're shooting, your camera becomes an extension of yourself.

Secondly, I designed a little "reinforcements" of the material: for instance, when I explain "depth of field", you straightaway get to shoot an example, indoors, to reinforce that knowledge before you move on to the next concept.

This truly comprehensive digital photo course will teach you everything from the ground up from being a hobbyist to making money with your camera, if that's your goal. It comprises 68 pages of hands-on content, based on one-to-one teaching experience, complemented with exercises to entrench your new-found knowledge. Not an ounce of fat in sight. If it's in there, you're going to need it someday.

What others say about the photo course
"When I registered for your photographic course, I didn't have a proper camera, then last year, about September, I bought the new Canon EOS400D and have been using your manual non-stop. Please continue with your hints and tips.  The are coming in extremely handy." Shelly Topham, Pretoria, South Africa

"It was fun and educational. I'm mentally working on a few simple lessons on how to garden photography for a garden info website I want to create soon. So wanted to get a feel for a practical 'how-to' lesson from you, from books and other current courses available. I have to say your course was the most engrossing. It's hard to balance the too little/too much info and I think your course was just right." -  Naomi Buckman, US garden photographer asked to evaluate the course.

"Hi Jaco, have read through your 'manual' am very excited, have learnt a lot more about my camera, things I didn't know existed! So I have been snapping away, trying all sorts of things out!" - Rosie Hogg, South African student.

"Many thanks, I'm looking forward to learn even more. The Digital Course was definitely worth it!" - Elize Roeloefse

"Your notes are really helpful. I like the simple way of explaining the jargon, eg. straw and water vs shutter speed and aperture. I also like the suggestions of using alternatives, eg. home made reflectors."- Asanda Kwakweni
