Amateur and professional photographers alike can benefit from taking photography classes, and there are many options a person can choose from to educate themselves about photography. Online photography courses and tutorials allow for learning in the comfort of one's home, while taking adult continuing education in photography or classes at an accredited art college offering photography courses can be beneficial as well.

Photographic education offers many options for employment. One can study to be a photographer of commercial images, portrait photos, advertising media and also film production. Film production in itself has many options, from producing, shooting the actual film, editing, and direction of imagery. Photojournalism and Documentary film are a genre of photography that has great societal value and encompassses many photographic criteria as well as the structure of writing educational content.

Beginner photography classes will instruct a person as to the way in which a film camera and a digital camera operate. Photographers learn in depth about how their camera functions. Apertures, shutter speeds, depth of field and compostion all factor into a beginner class. Digital camera users learn how to read their camera and how to best utilize the LCD screen on the camera. They learn how light and flash effect an image, and how their camera operates in terms of computers.

Digital photography degrees are available through online courses and also through accredited colleges. Through lectures, hands on practice and assignments photographers learn how to operate their cameras to maximum efficiency. Computer skills for related equipment as well as knowledge of uploading and manipulating photos are learned. Formatting, exporting and archiving are among many subjects covered in one course schedule for digital photography.
