About this Event
Intermediate Digital Workshop
This Saturday hands-on workshop goes deeper into important technical controls on your camera including exposure control, lens choices, composition and the creative aspects of photography. This is a perfect workshop if you’ve completed the Beginner Digital Series, or have the equivalent level of experience.
Through live shooting demonstrations and time for questions we’ll get further into the equipment and the creative choices. In the afternoon we’ll shoot professional models and end the day with a live editing session in LightRoom and slide show.
Topics include understanding exposure such as how the light meter works, when to use spot metering & how and when to use manual exposure. We take a close look at lenses, how to select the focal length, understanding chromatic aberration, pin cushion & barrel distortion, and how to select the best lens for the task at hand and why the most expensive one may not be the first choice. We consider tripods and stability, sensor cleaning best practices, crop vs full frame sensors. In addition to technical concerns, we consider methods of refining composition, using leading lines, frame within a frame, light & shadow and finding one’s personal creative thread.
Participate in a live, supervised shoot with professional models in historic locations. Come join the fun with fellow photographers, concentrate on shooting with natural light while building up your portfolio in a supportive environment.
