Photo II - Advanced Digital Photography for grades 4-8
No classes offered right now, consider a private lesson
Photo II is a great class for students, ages 9-14 to further learn the art of photography. After students have learned the foundations of photography in my beginner photo class, they can continue to further learn fun and useful photography topics. Students will learn how to photograph people, both formal and candid style, landscapes/nature, night (time lapse photography) and abstract photography.
These are just some of the topics that may be included, but each class is individually designed to meet student's needs & interests.
The most fun part of this photography class is that students will have the opportunity to go out on field trips with the instructor, Kelly Mintz to practice photographing. Field trips are the best way for students to learn by doing. These field trips are scheduled everyday to interesting scenic places around Newburyport that the students can walk to and/or parents drop off and pick up at a local spot.
Class size is small and limited to 7 students, which allows for individual attention. Kelly is a professional photographer and holds a Masters in Education and over fifteen years experience teaching photography to children and adults.
(Kelly is currently CPR + FIRST AID CERTIFIED)
