About this Event

As the fall migrations approach, it’s a great time to refine your skills as a Bird Photographer. Capturing wonderful images during your outings is truly exciting, and the concepts presented in this class are designed to help you achieve your goals as a bird photographer. You don’t have to travel far to capture beautiful bird photos; this class will guide you in making the most of your local opportunities.


This course is geared toward the beginning bird photographer.


The class will cover:


– Potential settings


– Finding good backgrounds


– Determining shooting angles taking into account lighting and composition


– Waiting for the right moment


– How to find locations


– Tips for success


– Hints for Magee Marsh and the surrounding area


Kathryn will provide specific examples from images she has taken in the past on how to increase your number of keepers.


About the Instructor: Kathryn Cubert has been photographing birds at every opportunity for over seven years. She was a Hog Island Audubon bird photography instructor in Maine in 2022 and is looking forward to being an instructor once again in the summer of 2023. Kathryn has exhibited her imagery at the McConnell Arts Center, the Ohio State Fair Fine Art Exhibit and the Riffe Gallery. Much of her work over the past several years has been as a photography contributor to two local conservation organizations to increase interest and help them reach conservation-oriented supporters. She will be a judge for the Ohio State Photographic Society’s upcoming annual competition this month.


Her photos have been published by Audubon.org, Bird Watchers Digest, Columbus Monthly, the Arc of Appalachia and Appalachia Ohio Alliance. She is a current member of the North American Nature Photography Association and is the Education Chairperson for Westbridge Camera Club for 2022-23.
