So What Makes a Great Photo?

with Karen Parashkevov

$50

Photography literally means “drawing with light”.  

To a photographer, it is the process of capturing light to create an image of the world that surrounds us. 

In this workshop, we will develop skills in:

  • Strong Composition
  • Compelling Lighting
  • Defined Subject

The possibilities are as endless as the imagination. Students will use their own smartphones or dedicated digital cameras and will need to have a basic working knowledge of their equipment of choice. We will focus on composition and lighting, while teaching artist Karen Pareshkevov reviews how to hold their smartphones or dedicated digital cameras and provides guidance on settings, followed by students then taking their own photos. 

Our class/workshop cancellation policy can be found here

We believe art should be accessible for all. Financial Assistance is available for those who qualify.
