Fundamentals of Photography

Workshop Description:

This six-week, 3 1/2 hour per week, seven session class is designed for the beginner who has recently purchased a 35mm or digital SLR camera or for people looking for a refresher on technique. Students are required to bring their own camera to each class.

Any digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera that can be adjusted for manual operation as well as automatic exposure mode is welcome in class; so long as it is not an automatic only exposure camera. (No point and shoot cameras permitted)

Expect homework assignments! Expect reading assignments! Do not be misled. The word fundamental in the title does not mean elementary photography. People who have shot photographs for many years would still benefit from this class just as much as a beginner.

Capacity: 20 Students
