Outdoor Photography Workshop

Explore the basics of outdoor nature photography in this hands-on workshop for both beginning and more experienced students. The type of camera does not matter. This three-session class is about taking photos that shine and tell a story, not about learning your camera's specific controls. Combining indoor and outdoor lectures, we'll explore shooting techniques—use of angles, light, shadow, subject—and then use these skills in the field to produce photos that you love. The two Wednesday evening classes will meet at Newton North H.S. The Saturday class (1-4 p.m.) will meet at the stunning and expansive Arnold Arboretum in Jamaica Plain (at the main entrance, 125 Arborway) for a half day of outdoor shooting and discussion. Be prepared to do some extensive walking around. During our final classroom session, we'll have a slideshow and focus on receiving both class and instructor feedback for your work.
