Class Experience

Greetings photographers! Do you love taking photos with your phone? Do you wish your photos could be more stunning and unique? If the answer is yes, this is the flex class for you! Use your smart phone to complete assignments each week based upon a specific style or technique! Get to know your phone settings, learn about lighting, perspective, colors, contrast and more! Teacher Tammy will start each week with video instructions and picture examples! Every week we will play a guessing game with each other by taking a photograph of something that is a bit of a mystery and we will guess what it could be! Every week we will also have photography assignments to share with the class. Teacher Tammy will respond to every photo turned in with positives and one element that could be improved in the photo’s composition to help student photographers grow! Students should comment on our guessing game pictures and assignment pictures every week! Take several pictures a week based upon a technique! Turn in a mystery photo for the mystery game and a best off the week photo for other students to view and comment on. Play I spy with other friends using great examples of photography and where is my cat (try and guess where Teacher Tammy’s cat is in a photograph!)
Week one: Lights, camera action! Let’s learn about the importance of good versus bad lighting! Take the same picture with varied amounts of light! Change a picture’s exposure until you think it has great lighting and send it to Teacher Tammy and the class! Try and guess what something is that is either very dark or bright! Send in your own mystery photos based on lighting as well to have other students guess what it could be! 
Week two: Get close and personal with perspective! Take a picture of something far away and the same object close up! Take a picture at a normal level and one very crooked! Send the class a mystery picture with an interesting perspective to have us guess what it could be! Send in your favorite perspective picture for us to comment and discuss! 
Week three: color or no color! Take pictures with very bright colors and take some black and white photos! Discuss contrasting colors, similar colors and edit your pictures to be very saturated and unsaturated to show different levels of color! Send us a picture with no color or excessive color and have us guess what is in the image! Send in your favorite black and white photo or color photo for us to discuss! 
Week four: Put it all together!  Take some great photos based upon what you learned in the first few weeks!  Send us a mystery photo and your all time favorite photo! Take pictures of your favorite things and try some actions shots for a challenge!  Review what you have learned and take final guesses on our mystery photos! Happy snappy!
