Want to learn how to use that fancy DSLR camera of yours & learn some tricks to take better photos of kids and other people? This is a hands-on class with opportunities for guided practice and independent practice. Forget learning about manual mode.
2-3 hours will be spent learning a few key items on your camera, like aperture priority and shutter priority, that will instantly transform the quality of your photos.
The remainder of time will be focused on tips for taking better photos of your kiddos and creating photography environments that will give you better results.
We will also eat dinner together and have some fun chatting . Feel free to stick around afterwards for a drink and enjoy more adult conversations if you wish! (And all the Moms say “Oh yah!!”) Here are topics and terms you will learn: ISO, white balance, aperture, shutter speed, exposure, f-stop, lifestyle photography, etc. A class handbook is provided for use during the class and for extra practice at home.
This class is held downtown at my studio
I’m Jill Howell.....My mission in life is to be an encourager of others. I’ve been through several seasons of difficulty (torrential downpour and tornados) and I understand what it is like to struggle, to grieve, to experience loss, and to navigate each day trying to “dance in the rain” metaphorically.
My hope is to lift up the women I meet and let them know they are loved and seen. My goal is to help create a stress-free photography experience where people can truly breathe and have some fun with each other.
My business exists to bless people (especially Moms) and to bring joy in the midst of this messy chaotic life. Life is so busy and disappointing at times.
Mommin’ can be so overwhelming and hard. Days can be challenging and full of the unexpected. My photos are created to bring a little extra sunshine into your life no matter what season you are in- rain or shine!
In this beginning workshop, students will learn all the controls and functions on their digital Single Lens Reflex (SLR) cameras, basic camera operation (including f-stop, shutter speed and ISO), fundamental concepts of photography, and how to control the photograph’s final look.
Understanding basic photography camera controls and functions to make more creative decisions. Train your eye to see stronger composition to have your photographs stand out from everyone else’s images.
Classes have been designed to combine hands-on, practical learning with inspirational insights around the broader themes of Photography.
Each Composition in the Field class begins with a talk with one of our experienced instructors, and then you and your fellow students take a stroll through one of a variety of photogenic locales (in any of the 20+ cities the DPA encapsulates).
After 20 years of offering Photography workshops, we have never produced one workshop with similar outcome, there is no exact science in how we do things but what remains consistent in our Photography classes are the specific instructions in perfect lighting.
