Digital cameras, smartphones and the ever-increasing connectivity have increased the popularity of photography, whether you consider it an art, craft, profession or hobby. While many avenues have opened up for self-learning, including YouTube channels and online tutorials, there is no alternative to a well-mentored practical session. This has led to many professionals taking up teaching photography as their full-time profession.
