our goal is for you to leave this workshop an inspiried photographer!
we will cover the camera basics (like iso, aperture and shutter speed) as well as shooting techniques (like panning, fill flash and use of perspective). we'll have two hours to shoot and implement this new knowledge before a lunch break and afternoon session where we'll edit and "critique" our images from the morning. you will take better family and vacation photos! you might even be artist.
