Remember- Your first 10000 photos are your worst.

Now lets understand the
Exposure Triangle.

Aperture, shutter speed, and ISO make up the three sides of the exposure triangle. They work together to produce a photo that is properly exposed.

If one variable changes, at least one of the others must also change to maintain the correct exposure. Now, understanding what a stop is, is key to understanding the exposure triangle. A stop refers to the doubling or halving of the amount of light that makes up an exposure.

Each photo that we take requires a certain quantity of light to expose it correctly..Adding a stop of light by doubling the exposure will brighten an underexposed image. Conversely, decreasing an exposure by one stop (halving the amount of light) will darken an overexposed image.

Shutter Speed is the length of time light is allowed to hit the sensor. It is measured in seconds. Shutter speed is probably the easiest of the exposure triangle sides to understand. To double the amount of light, we need to double the length of the exposure.

For example, moving from a shutter speed of 1⁄60 s to 1⁄30 s will add a stop of light because the shutter will remain open twice as long. Changing from a shutter speed of 1s to 1/8 s will decrease the exposure by three stops.
