Description
We have all heard about the rules of thirds in photography. Yes, this rule helps us compose an interesting and pleasing photograph, however it is a rule to learn but then break. Every photographer has a vision and this is something that is developed and sharpened with practice. Learn how to create a photograph that is compelling & captivates the viewer. Develop your creative power with photography (no pun intended!).
​We will cover how to “see” what is in front of you and how to maximize the impact of a subject in a capture. In addition to all the basics in this hands-on class, we will discuss the impact of changing depth-of-field on a subject, stopping or blurring the action in your scene, and many other picture-taking techniques.
​We will navigate the Back Bay of Boston, an area rich in history and beautiful architecture. There is no end of photographic opportunities!
​If any of the following strikes a chord, this workshop is for you.​
- You’ve had your camera for a while and want to take better pictures.
- You have a DSLR, mirrorless camera or bridge camera & you have no idea how to use it.
- You are bypassing using your camera because you just don’t see the difference between shots from your expensive camera and your smartphone.
​You own a visual powerhouse. Learn how to develop your vision and use your camera to capture it.
This is the essential class for anyone wanting to take a photograph that is more than just a snapshot.
