SD102 Photo Exploration: Holiday Sparkle and Night Photo Adventures

Paris truly sparkles during the holidays. The store windows, glittering lights, and diverse quartier decorations are a photographic feast.


In this night workshop, we’ll visit the best spots (Grand Boulevard department stores, Champs Elysées, Place de la Concorde) and learn the tricks of exposing for night lights, shooting through windows, light painting, and just generally capturing the joy of the season. You might even get the image you need for your personalized holiday card. For sure, we’ll end the evening with a cup of chocolate or vin chaud.
Starting point: Galeries Lafayette

Students can expect to:

• become more familiar with their camera;
• learn about exposure, composition, low-light shooting techniques;
• have their technical questions answered directly.
