Class Experience

During this fun and interactive class, I will introduce students to the following concepts and skills: 
	
Week 1
-Animal behaviour: learning how to observe our pet’s behaviour so we can create opportunities for fantastic photos
-Natural light: How to use natural light (sunlight) to take better photos of our pets and the best time of day and weather for taking photos 

Week 2
-Backdrop and photo locations: How to choose the best places in and around your home to take photos of your pets
-The rules of photography that you can use to create more interesting photos of your pets
-Feedback on homework photos

Week 3
-Props and accessories: Introducing story telling into your photos
-Tips and tricks for getting pets to cooperate with photos
-Feedback on homework photos

Students will use their camera or phone (in auto mode) to photograph their pets: this course will not teach students how to use different settings on their cameras.  Students do not need to own a pet to take this class.

Learning Goals

Students will learn the skills they need to begin experimenting with pet photography.  They will learn to use the light they have available to photograph different types of pets in fun and creative ways.  They will learn practical tips for photographing different kinds of pets in different environments.
