Hey kjc51902,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to know how to disable the ambient light sensor on your MacBook Pro, so that the brightness doesn't adjust automatically. The article linked below provides a lot of great information about adjusting a display's brightness, including how to enable or disable the automatic brightness adjustment.
OS X Yosemite: Adjust your display’s brightness
Automatically adjust brightness
If your Mac has an ambient light sensor, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Displays, then click Display.
Then select “Automatically adjust brightness.”
If you don’t see the “Automatically adjust brightness” checkbox, you can manually adjust the brightness.
So long.
