Ignite your creativity in our exciting two-day class, Creative Experimental Photography: Breaking the Rules! This engaging workshop invites students to push the boundaries of photography through innovative and unconventional techniques. Using any camera—point & shoot, phone, or ideally a DSLR or mirrorless—students will experiment with lighting, movement, and focus to create captivating abstract images using simple materials found at home. If their cameras allow for long shutter speeds, they’ll explore that as well! Day 1: Students will be introduced to experimental photography concepts and techniques. They'll begin exploring creative exercises and capturing unique images. Day 2: Learners will refine their techniques, experiment further, and share their photographs for constructive feedback in a supportive environment. Join us for this unique experience that encourages thinking outside the box and developing a distinctive artistic voice! IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT SUPPLIES: Please see the supply list below so your student can gather materials and prepare before class. Some inexpensive items may need to be picked up before the session. Enrollment Policy: Our one-time classes are never canceled, even with just one learner. However, if your learner prefers a group setting, you may request a transfer at least 24 hours before the first class.
Learning Goals
Students will learn to utilize unconventional photography techniques, including lighting, movement, and focus, to create unique images.
Learners will discover how to use simple household items to enhance their photography, encouraging resourcefulness and innovation.
