Photography: Essential skills
So you have this great camera…. now what? Learn how to take better pictures by practicing the simple yet essential relationship between shutter speed, f-stop and ISO. Learn to set the correct exposure and what the numbers mean. Discover how to see and think like a photographer by using compositional tools and basic photographic principals. Once you know the rules you can then break the rules! We will be both in the classroom and on location taking photos during our class time.

A Study in Light
Learn about different qualities of light and how to use it to control color and set a mood in your images. The camera can not always capture what you see with your eye. Learn how to look at a scene and pre-visualize what the camera can capture and how you want to use that in your images. We will use natural light, weather permitting, to photograph during the golden hour (just before sunset) and explore different lighting techniques such as silhouette, rim lighting, and backlighting. We will be learning in a classroom, taking indoor photos, and outdoor photos.
