Have you always “pictured” yourself as a bit of a photographer but didn’t quite know how to take your skills or ambitions to the next level?

You’re in luck. Our Digital Photography course provides you with all the knowledge you’ll ever need to “develop” your new passion.

This absorbing Level 3 Digital Photography course from Cambridge Open College provides a real insight into the joy of photography, and in particular how to optimise the use of digital equipment to capture exquisite images that as recently as just ten years ago would have been impossible for the amateur.

On successful completion, the course results in an Endorsed Qualification awarded under Focus Awards’ FQP (Focus on Quality Provision) Scheme.

Whether you consider photography a fun hobby or intend on pursuing a career in the field, this course fully equips you for the life of a photographer. You learn how to take good quality photographs, the techniques and processes involved, and the tools you need to master the art.

With so many specialist areas and the benefit of working for yourself, students who wish to become a professional photographer could use the course to pave the way for a very lucrative career. Alongside this comprehensive course, we provide you several FREE resources to transition into employment as simply as possible.

Our Digital Photography course is a comprehensive guide to becoming a fully fledged photographer. Whether you’re a complete beginner and don’t know your focus from your flash or you’ve already dabbled in the “black art” of photography, this course teaches you everything you need to know about the subject.

The course comprises four core units. Unit 1 covers all the Key Topics such as the History of Photography, Equipment and Accessories and the Photographic process. This gives you the background knowledge upon which to build your practical skills.

As the course progresses, you learn about the most important elements of photography such as composition, viewpoint and framing, and features which pertain to the “digital” aspect of photography, including data transfer, scanning and editing. You also learn about Photoshop, one of the most instrumental and innovative pieces of digital editing software developed for photographers and studios in recent years.

Unit 3 considers Photography in Practice while the final unit explores some of the more advanced photographic techniques and dispenses vital advice on setting up your own business. It provides you with a practical insight into how to pursue a career in photography and what potential areas you could specialise in.
