Hi! I’m Joshua Cripps
I’ve helped thousands of people improve their photos. Here’s how I can help you.
I’ve been teaching photography for over 15 years. In the beginning I was teaching only myself. But as I began to understand what made a good photo I quickly moved on to assisting other photographers on their workshops, and then to teaching my own. Since then I’ve instructed thousands of photographers in person in some of the most beautiful places in the world.
But I didn’t stop there. I also created Joshua Cripps Photography (now the Nature Photo Collective), one of the most popular photography channels on YouTube, which has over 400,000 subscribers and 10’s of millions of video views.
Throughout these years of teaching (as well as refining my own photography) I’ve learned a lot about what makes a good photo and what doesn’t.
I’ve also come to realize when you’re learning photography you need more than just endless tips and confusing techniques. You need practical approaches, step-by-step processes, and go-to ideas about how to craft a winning image. You need a framework to start from that you can build your own creative ideas off of.
That’s why I created Master Manual Mode. To give you an easy step-by-step approach to mastering manual mode.
What People Are Saying About This Course
“After Udemy courses, dozens of YouTube videos, I started to panic. Then I discovered one of yours videos (last week). No one doing instructional videos on photography comes even close to the quality of your instruction. You get to the point quickly. You cannot be misunderstood. You do it in the environment and not in your backyard. I could go on.” – Katie G.
“I LOVE this class! Joshua is a GREAT instructor!” – Katie G
