This $19 training bundle is your golden ticket to taking better pictures

Be honest with yourself for a moment. You think the photos you take are pretty good, but you really like how that one friend of yours is able to capture things on a whole different level. They’re not professional, but the pictures are so much better than what you’d normally take.

According to InfoTrends, there were roughly 1.2 trillion digital pictures captured last year, shaking out to about 160 per person. How many did you take? How many of them were good… or great? It’s time you get better at taking pics and we’re here to help.

Maybe you’re just a couple of tiny changes away from getting much improved results. Perhaps it’s a simple case of lighting techniques or framing. Whatever it is, the Hollywood Art Institute (HAI) Photography Course & Certification is your first order of action.

Valued at $2,600, this photography education can be yours for just $19 from the AndroidGuys Deals Store. Spanning 22 modules of videos, articles, tutorials, quizzes, and ebooks, it’s a dirt cheap way to up your game.
