Learners will come to see photography as an art form within their grasp and they will finish each week's class having completed another creative photo which they can add to their photography portfolio.

I took photography classes in college as well as supplementary photography classes at a local art school.  While I learned how to develop my own film in a dark room, I prefer digital photography so much more!  Because my college classes focused on black and white photography, I have a special appreciation for the power that both black and white and color play in a photo's mood.  I have assisted a professional photographer to learn more about wedding photography but soon realized I prefer more artsy photography than taking pictures of bridal parties.  I enjoyed hosting a casual and fun photography event over zoom last year and I take photos almost daily as a hobby.  I have traveled to several continents using different quality cameras (point and shoot, DSLR and more recently my camera phone!) to capture the moment and am always finding symbolism and meaning in everyday objects.  I strongly believe in these famous words: the best camera is the one you have.  If you have the artist eye and a vision, that's all that matters.  

Homework Offered
At the end of class, a creative photography assignment will be given to challenge students to use what we learned that day.  The focus of each homework assignment will be on the learner's creativity when shooting pictures.
