Dramatically Improve Your Nature Photography
2-SESSION WORKSHOP
Nature Photography Workshop
LEVEL: Beginning Photographers
(View Course Requirements)
This nature photography class is for the beginning photographer or anyone who is dissatisfied
with their photographs (nature or otherwise). This comprehensive workshop is designed to
give you quick and dramatic results, hence the title.
(Gift Cards for this class are available.)
Set up as a 2-session photography course, it walks you through several simple ways
for making technically and aesthetically excellent photographs.
Some of the main topics include making sharp images,
the 8 rules of composition that you need to know, and how to use the light to your advantage.
The workshop is creatively based and mostly non-technical. However, you must have a
mastery of their camera's operation. As for equipment, you must own a camera that is
serious enough to allow you to set the aperture and shutter speeds manually.
It's best to have a digital SLR or an ADVANCED point-and-shoot camera.
A digital camera is usually the best learning tool because it gives you instant feedback and
helps you to learn more quickly. But, if you have a film camera, you'll do fine.
COURSE AGENDA
The initial session takes place at Mike's home and studio in Downers Grove (a suburb of Chicago, Illinois).
You will receive a presentation that will teach you the various fundamentals and techniques.
The class is very interactive and gives lots of examples to help you absorb the information.
You will be given a homework assignment to be finished by the second class, which is
usually scheduled one week later. During this class, homework images are critqued and
any remaining questions are answered.
The class will be limited to 8 to 12 students, depending on the experience level of the
participants. So, please register quickly to insure a spot.
