Quinton Batchelor
Hi, I'm Quinton. I'm an avid outdoors photographer and explorer and have been taking pictures for years. I've worked professionally taking photos but my true passion lies in teaching what I love to others. In my younger days of photography I spent countless hours scouring the internet trying to learn the secrets of photography. I just wish there was one place where I could learn everything I needed to know and explain in terms I could understand. My goal is to give you exactly that, I want to help you knock down barriers and master the world of photography. I've shown some of my work below so you can be the judge if I can teach you. But you can also check out my Instagram where I have all my work.

it is a good course I will like to see a more update version of everything because I would like to see on a camera the setting that he talks about. but I learned alot in this course and would recommend this for al my photography friends that is starting out
By Josiah-Daniel Ladipo on 6/20/2025
This course was clear and easy to follow. However, I think it was quite basic and the instructor (Quinton Batchelor) has not responded to any messages for several years. Also the facebook group does not work and Quinton is not responding to any messages asking for helo with the facebook group.

Beaucoup de retour aux sources. La logique aide beaucoup aussi. En 1970 le concept vitesse/ouverture, je le comparais à un robinet (ouverture) et durée (vitesse) pour remplis la pellicule de la bonne quantité d'eau. L'horizon au milieu... il y avait la théorie des tiers (1/3 ciel ou 2/3 ciel)

I learned a lot with watching the demonstrations and listening to him speak, especially with Lightroom! Although I did not have access to my camera until further in the course, by the time I got my camera I knew how to work the camera and what most of the options were and how it functions. I also used some of the skills he taught me with taking pictures of people and cars!

Hi,that is incredibly nice course, from the first minute I liked the way how Quinton explains the theory and practical part as well. The short time lessons are very effective in your learning process. It's pleasure to study with Udemy and Quinton!!! Thank you so much

It was a good match for me to learn the basic skills of photography
By Tejas Nanoti on 11/9/2020
So far
i think that the instructor is really awesome.
I understood the Concept of Aperture really nicely and hope that it will continue like this.
Also now when I'm learning different types of photography, the instructor is doing a really good job in explaining those concepts with examples

I'm enjoying the photography course. It will help me learn more about photography and it takes time to practice all techniques in taking good photo shots.
By Athena Loizides on 10/24/2020
I started this course 10 days ago with no clue as what and how to start. Now, I am taking great photos!
By Diane Heldt on 9/27/2020
Its easy to follow so far. Im enjoying the course
By Devon Haugan on 9/19/2020
The first lesson or two were fine, but only because I had not done prior research into photography. A few minutes on Google could have saved me the money. This course adds very little to what you can find for free online. Instructor is unpracticed, constantly repeating things, gives poor verbal presentations, and adds little to nothing; more importantly several online sources give better instruction in a more clear and concise way. Wish I had done this within the time frame to get my money back.
