iPhone Photography Masterclass: The Tech with Jack Hollingsworth

This session introduces students to the iPhone’s camera system and the settings, features, and functions that actually shape a photograph. It provides a deeper understanding of how the iPhone works—exposure, focus, lenses, and formats—along with the essential tools built into the camera that influence every image.

The goal of this class is to establish a technical foundation that allows you to shoot with intention instead of relying on chance. By understanding how each tool affects your final image, you’ll be able to make more purposeful decisions and get stronger results from the camera already in your pocket.

This class includes a dedicated 30 minutes of Q&A with Jack Hollingsworth.
