Great work isn’t enough anymore.
Aundre shows you what is.
About the Course
Great photos alone don't get you noticed anymore. The photographers people follow and hire are the ones who share the story behind the shot, and Aundre Larrow does it with the iPhone in his pocket. A New York photographer and filmmaker who has shot for Walmart, WhatsApp, and The Washington Post, Aundre walks you through the camera features built for behind-the-scenes capture, from Dual Capture and the Action button to screen recording, plus the apps he uses to plan light, scout locations, and diagram setups. Whether you post for friends or pitch to brands, you'll learn to capture your process without slowing down the shoot and share it in a way that makes people care about the photo before they ever see it.
Why This Course Matters
Anyone can post a finished image. Almost no one shows how they got there.
That gap is where trust, followers, and opportunities are won. Aundre pulls back the curtain on real shoots, from a rain machine on a soundstage to an underwater session in a 10-foot pool, to prove that a few honest frames from your phone can turn one photo into a story people follow. Along the way, you'll build a habit most photographers skip: keeping a record of your light, settings, and inspiration so you can explain every choice, plan the next shoot faster, and make your way of seeing the reason people remember you.
Who's Teaching You
Learn from a photographer brands hire for the shot and the story behind it
Aundre Larrow built his career on the two things this course teaches: making the work and showing how it's made. He spent years shooting social and behind-the-scenes content for brands before directing his own films, and he still documents every project with the phone in his pocket. Here, he shows you exactly how.
Aundre Larrow is a Brooklyn-based photographer, director, and educator with more than a decade of editorial and commercial work for brands like Apple, Google, Adidas, and Adobe, and features in The New York Times and Wired. A former Adobe Creative Resident, he got his start shooting social and behind-the-scenes content, and he teaches the way he works: phone in hand, showing every step.
What You'll Learn
Skills you'll use on every shoot
From the first frame on set to the mood board you share when it's done — here's what you'll walk away knowing how to do.
Capture on set without slowing down
Dual Capture, burst mode, the Action button, and hands-free recording from your AirPods or Apple Watch, so documenting never gets in the way of the shot.
Keep your footage consistent
Preserve Settings, locked exposure and white balance, and ProRAW and ProRes, so every clip matches from the first setup to the last.
Turn your editing into content
Screen recordings with the mic on and Lightroom's tap indicators that answer “what did you change?” before anyone has to ask.
Show where the light came from
Diagrams, 3D models, and quick notes that record every setup, plus the Sunseeker app for predicting the sun before you arrive.
Scout with the apps you already own
Location maps in Photos, lens previews in Artemis, and distances in Measure, all captured as screenshots you can share with clients.
Share how you think, not just what you made
Mood boards and saved inspiration that align clients with your vision and give followers a reason to care about the next post.

Just watched Lesson 2? Here's everything around it — tap any lesson to see what's covered.
Aundre shares how a single behind-the-scenes photo went viral and why sharing how you work now matters as much as the work itself — so start documenting today, not someday.
A rain machine on a soundstage, LED digital backgrounds, a 10-foot diving pool: Aundre reveals how documenting the setup builds trust with clients and followers, even with just a phone.
Dual Capture, burst mode, the Action button, Preserve Settings, and hands-free recording from your AirPods or Apple Watch: Aundre walks through the tools that make capturing on set second nature.
Screen recordings and screenshots turn your editing into content that answers the questions followers always ask: what settings, what lens, and what did you change in Lightroom?
Diagrams, 3D models, notes, and the Sunseeker app: Aundre shows how he records every lighting setup and predicts the sun's position before he ever arrives on location.
Map past shoots in Photos, preview focal lengths with Artemis, and size up a space with Measure. The phone does the planning so you can focus on the shot.
Aundre makes the case for pairing inspiration with final images, letting go of the fear that someone will copy you, and embracing the vulnerability that makes your work connect.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 — "Excellent" — across 1,843 reviews on Trustpilot. Here's what members say.
KelbyOne is so inspiring, exhilarating, fascinating and downright exceptional. Every aspect of KelbyOne is like a good novel that you can't put down. Great technical and useful knowledge.
These courses don't treat you like you're an idiot, but still walk you through step by step. Other members really go the extra mile to help you understand and progress as a photographer.
I am soooo pleased that I found this program. I am learning and growing by crazy leaps and bounds in my photography skills. The teaching style makes everything stick.
The classes are well done and I always learn something new. I especially enjoy the no-nonsense approach to teaching. It keeps what could be a dry topic interesting.
More Than One Course
This course is just the beginning
Using the iPhone as a Behind-the-Scenes Tool comes with your KelbyOne membership — and so does everything below. Tap any benefit to see what's included.
The full KelbyOne library covers photography, Lightroom, and Photoshop from first principles to professional technique — portraits, landscape, travel, studio and flash, wedding, sports, street, food, fashion, business, and more. Every course is taught by a working pro, broken into focused lessons you can watch in any order, and available to stream whenever you want. Start a class on your lunch break, finish it that night, and come back to it any time you need a refresher.
KelbyOne releases a new course every single week, so your membership is worth more the longer you hold it. New techniques, new gear, new software releases, and new instructors are added continuously — meaning the latest in photography and post-processing is always waiting for you, and you'll never pay extra for it.
Not sure what to watch next? Curated learning tracks sequence the right courses in the right order so you build skills step by step instead of jumping around. The Photographer's Fast Track is designed to save you years of trial and error, and your progress is tracked along the way so you always know what you've finished and what's next.
Your membership includes a growing toolkit of free Lightroom presets, Photoshop brushes, and other downloadable resources you can put to work right away. Many courses also include downloadable practice files so you can follow along with the exact images the instructor is using — learning by doing, not just watching.
Stream on your computer, phone, tablet, or Apple TV and pick up right where you left off on any device. The KelbyOne app also lets you download classes for offline viewing, so you can keep learning on a plane, a road trip, or anywhere without a connection. Your account works anytime, anywhere.
Learning is easier with people in your corner. KelbyOne members are a welcoming, genuinely helpful community — the kind who go out of their way to answer questions and help you progress. When a technique doesn't click, there's a place to ask, and real photographers at every level who are happy to help.
