Are you ready to take professional images with your smartphone?

With a few secret pocket lenses, Chris has grown his Instagram following to over 2 million fans — and now he's teaching you how to do the same.

You'll learn to create and share exceptional images that look professional and feel immersive, including:

  • Inspiration: Every lesson is filled with behind-the-scenes stories of his real-life adventures, from surfing in Northern Russia to camping beneath the Northern Lights.
  • Shooting Tactics for Mobile: Learn how to capture timeless photography styles on your mobile device, from silhouettes to leading lines and more.

By the end, Chris asks every student to share photos of their own — from their adventures, hometown, and daily sunrise. Get ready for a true photo adventure!
