P h o t o I - is a four week beginner photography class to teach adults more about their cameras and how to take better photographs. This class is for adults with NO prior experience using their camera in any other settings other than maybe the Automatic modes.
Photography manuals and books can be confusing. Kelly Mintz strives to teach photography in a fun, clear and simple to understand manner. She will teach you how to gain control of your cameras settings by hands-on instruction with your individual camera. You will learn to use the camera's {Aperture and Shutter} modes. The more you're able to come out of the automatic modes, the more you're able to control the outcome - resulting in better photographs.
Not only will you learn about your aperture and shutter speeds, but also how to, focus on your subject, deal with harsh outdoor lighting and use your flash properly. There will also be tips for improving your photographs of people, landscapes and more. This is extremely useful for any beginner photographer.
Kelly's teaching style is very interactive. She provides one-on-one attention to you and your camera. In addition to individualized assistance, she also uses photo book examples by world renowned photographers, and informative handouts. Most importantly, students will practice photographing on field trips to local fun places!
All four classes will have a lecture, then Kelly accompanies the class on a field trip to a fun inspiring place. This is something that most other photography classes don't offer, but she feels learning by doing is the best way to learn photography and practice using your camera.
Students will have the opportunity to present some of their photos to the class for non-judgmental, constructive and positive feedback.
Class size is limited to 7 students so individual attention can be given.
