The Art of Photography & Digital workflow workshop

(From capture to print)

During this four hours training workshop you will learn immediately how to capture better digital photos – guaranteed.

You will also learning how to have a complete control of your camera, whether you are using a compact camera or advanced digital SLR.

Did I mention it’s the “Art of Photography” workshop not a “camera manual” class:) In other words, I will teach you how to shoot like a pro with ANY camera with a step-by-step instructions, as long as your  camera has advanced settings. Cameras with only automatic settings can’t be used for this class.

This workshop is an introductory class and designed for beginner photographers. However, beginners and experienced photographers are welcome.

The workshop consist of four main sections:

1-The Art of photography: one hour

In the section I will teach you the art behind making a great photograph.

Starting out with a quick art history lesson and explain the “WHY” we create art before the “HOW” we create the art.

I will also teach you the meaning of composition (rule of third, framing, subject placements, angle, distance, focal length leading lines, and colors)

After learning the “WHY” now it’s time to learn the “HOW” to take the ultimate photograph.
