What does it take to make a memorable photograph? Many things... but this course will focus on two of the most important elements: interesting characters and the "set" or scene in which the story unfolds. 

You will learn techniques and tips for photographing people in candid and formal situations. And you'll learn the power of line, form, contrast, and texture through a discussion of composition guidelines and study of architectural, cityscape and street photographers. You'll get hands-on practical experience in photographing people and designing/composing your "set" through in-class assignments and field expeditions that will seek out characters and incorporate interesting structures (buildings, monuments, windows and doors).

Each class will include a friendly critique of the class assignments.

Students can expect to:

  • review creative tools and technical controls, with a focus on composition, use of aperture and shutter speed and changing perspectives
  • get hands-on experience with practical assignments
  • participate in a friendly critique session of their work
Course Requirements
  • Suitable for all levels of photographers and those wishing to develop their skills
