About CHIP WEINER PHOTOGRAPHIC ARTS
Want to get your camera off of automatic? This service is for you! Photo 101 is a comprehensive five week course designed to help you understand aperture, shutter speed, ISO, camera settings, photo composition, and lighting. The buttons and dials look intimidating on many cameras. This class is designed to break them down in a logical sequence to help your get your brain around how they all work. You might even be able to understand your camera manual when you are done!
Demonstrations in class and weekly photography assignments will help participants gain a better working knowledge of how to make better pictures and control their cameras. Each class will consist of time devoted to different aspects of photography, with time for you to ask questions about the operation of your camera and the content of your photographs from the weekly assignments (see topics below). You will gain a better understanding of how to work your camera and when to choose certain settings. We even touch on photo editing (Photoshop). Whether you are trying to take better family photos or want to take your photography to the next level, you've got to be able to control your camera.
Want more private and intense instruction? Chip Weiner Photographic Arts offers one on one photographyand private Photoshop lessons as well.
So you just got a new camera or you want a photography refresher course? Maybe you have had your camera for a while and want to learn to take it off automatic but don't have time for a several- week class. No matter what, I provide one on one instruction with your camera equipment (or use my loaner SLR) In a short time you will have a better working knowledge of shutter speeds, apertures, ISO, and be taking better shots.!
We can also concentrate on a specific genre of photography. Want to learn to take better portraits? How about sports photos? Need to take some product shots? We can get together and discuss these (and other) techniques, equipment, and lighting techniques.
We will set up a time and place to meet to review your equipment and your knowledge. We will then shoot photos in the studio or on location. Bring your camera, your manual, and all of your questions*. If you are already an experienced shooter and need a little kick we can do that too.
