Course overview

This combined course connects seeing and controlling light with composition, color, black-and-white work and portrait applications. Its nineteen sections provide a broad route into creative photographic decisions. The portrait courses included within it are treated as components here, so their separate sales pages are not counted as additional courses.

What you will learn

  • Analyze light and composition
  • Compare color and monochrome choices
  • Apply creative principles to portrait photography

Who this suits

Useful for a learner wanting a broad composition-and-portrait program and prepared to practise visual decisions rather than expecting equipment alone to determine the image.

Before you enroll

The requirements specify camera access, with a smartphone sufficient to begin. About 11 hours and 33 minutes of video are listed, updated September 2022. Some later examples may use additional lighting or editing tools. Do not buy the separately sold classic or modern portrait components if you already have this combined course.

Udemy offers paid purchase or subscription access depending on the current course and region. Paid teaching courses provide completion certificates under Udemy’s policy. Check current access terms and any separate software or material costs before enrolling.

Put it into practice

Create a small portrait study in color and monochrome. Explain how framing and lighting affect each version, and record which principle from the course you applied rather than merely copying a demonstration.
