Two New Photography Classes Scheduled

I will be teaching two classes this winter.

Moving from Beginner to an Accomplished Photographer
Adobe Lightroom for Photographers




Photography Class - Moving from Beginner to an Accomplished Photographer


The class will start out with learning the basics of photography - light, shutter speed, aperture and how to use them on your camera.  From there we will get into color, composition, lighting, techniques and photographic gear selection.  We'll talk about some common photography challenges and how to overcome them. We will go over different photo editing packages, organizing photos, printing, and sharing online.   The class will be a combination of classroom teaching, practicing our new photography skills, and reviews of photography assignments.

The class is designed for a photographer who has a DSLR, mirrorless camera, or advanced compact camera.

Classroom sessions are January 17, 19, 24, and 26 2017 from 6:00 PM– 8:00 PM in the Eastman Employee Center.   There will be one field trip on Saturday, January 21 or 28 to practice what we have learned.  The Saturday date and time will depend on what works best for the majority of the students.

In every Class we will have time for:

  • Review of Homework – yes, we are in school again.
  • Problem Solving - Bring your camera and problem photos to class
  • Question and Answer

Cost - $40/person.   Maximum of 10 people per class.  Please sign-up at the Toy F. Reid Eastman Employee Center (229-3771).   No payment until after the first of the year.

The class will cover organizing and managing your digital photos, editing photos, exporting, printing, and integrating with Lightroom Mobile.

Students must have a copy of Lightroom on a laptop computer they can bring to class.

Classroom sessions are February 21, 23, 28 and March 2 2017 from 6:00 PM– 8:00 PM in the Eastman Employee Center.

In every Class we will have time for:
