In this iPhone photography course, we want to show you it's as easy as gaining some knowledge in composition, camera settings and editing.

I've taken a few iPhone photography courses, mainly short walking tours and this one was much more comprehensive as well as including practical experience of photography. I'd really recommend the course to anyone who would like to improve their iPhone photography.
