Upcoming Classes

Get to Know Your Digital Camera

Do you wonder what all the buttons do on your digital camera? Does the instruction manual read like it was written in Klingon? This workshop is for beginners who want to learn to use a digital camera for basic photography. Participants will learn about the functions and features of a typical digital camera and how to use it to take photos of family and friends, events, and vacations.

Dates TBA

Take Better Photos

Do you wish you could take better photographs with your digital camera? Do you wish your photos looked more like the fine art photography you see in galleries? In this workshop, participants will learn how to take their skills to the next level using a digital camera to photograph people, landscapes, and other subjects with confidence.

Dates TBA

Edit Your Digital Images

Do some of the images from your digital camera need to be touched-up but you don’t know how? Did your computer come with photo software you wish you could use? This workshop is for both beginning and intermediate photographers who want to get more from their photos by using Adobe® Photoshop® Elements or other software to edit and polish the images.

Digital Photography as Fine Art

Have you mastered the basics of digital photography? Are you ready to get serious about photography as a medium for artistic expression? This workshop series combines classroom discussion, field assignments and critique. Participants will explore how subject, composition and technique combine to communicate a narrative, emotion or abstract imagery through the photograph. Participants will need to bring a digital camera to class and have Adobe® Photoshop® Elements or another image editing program on their home computer.
