    Learn to take and edit beautiful photographs that capture life's special moments

    Welcome! I'm a visual communications graduate from the University of South Carolina. I picked up my first camera when I was five years old, and immediately fell in love – its been my passion ever since. I love to freeze moments in time and capture the things that make life beautiful. I have experience in photojournalism, sports photography, lighting studios, editorial and style, portraiture, and product photography. For beginners, we'll start with learning lighting and proper exposure, understanding the settings on your camera, composition, and how to find the moments that make a beautiful photograph. For more intermediate photographers, we'll dive into how to shoot a variety of subjects, experimenting with lighting and composition, the post production process, and more advanced techniques. Whether you've never touched a camera before or you know the basics and want to take your photography to the next level, I'm here to help!

    About Lexi C.

    I’m often told that I live life like it’s filled with sunshines and rainbows, and... they’re not wrong. As an optimist who sees the beauty in everyone and everything, my goal is to lift others up and help them shine. This goes for my work as a creative as well. I love learning about people, sharing their stories, and capturing the beautiful essence that makes every person unique. With over five years of experience as a digital artist and a Bachelors in Journalism and Mass Communications with a concentration in Visual Communications from the University of South Carolina, I specialize in photo editing, motion design, company branding, content creation, and photography. My experience includes roles as both creative director and photo editor for my university's magazine, working in post production for the Sphere in Las Vegas, and designing branded content with my university's advertising agency. As a photographer, I've captured a diverse range of subjects. I've had the pleasure of photographing sports events like the Carolina Cup horse race, soccer showcases, concerts, editorial style shoots, portraits, product photography, and studio sessions. My passion is bringing visions to life and capturing candid moments that make life beautiful. I’m looking forward to helping you learn how to use cameras and software to unlock all your creativity, and helping you share all the beauty you find in the world!
