We’ll share our simple, 4-step workflow so you can streamline your fieldwork and get your exposure just right every time.

We’ll show you how exposure is related to shutter speed, aperture, and ISO – and we’ll help you determine the best exposure for any given situation.

You’ll learn to target your new knowledge of spot metering to select an exact shutter speed or aperture for the scene before you – all while maintaining proper exposure.

You’ll have access to on-location, step-by-step case studies that allow you to watch as we use our camera’s spot meter to create real photographs in the field.

Jay and Varina do a great job of instructing through your video’s. I’ve brought some other big name Landscape photographers but Visual Wilderness Video Tutorials are much better quality!

Histograms Exposed is a great tutorial too – I learned some stuff myself, as I didn’t realize you could even get a live view of your histogram before you took a shot! Love learning new techniques! :)
