On The Road
A Photography Course for the Traveller
"The traveler sees what he sees. The tourist sees what he has come to see. ~G.K. Chesterton"
Digital photography and cameras have allowed amateur users many more options for creating creative travel images. However, very few users know how to get the most out of their cameras. When you're traveling to places where you may never return, that's unacceptable. This class will allow you to feel confident about using your camera to take home all the images you experienced, and more! In this class, "P" is for Peggy, not 'Program.'
We'll start with the camera settings that you MUST know and give you practice opportunities to use them, so that you won't need to fumble with the manual. Next we'll move onto the rules of composition, including people in your images, and the best things to photograph during different parts of the day. Lastly, and perhaps more importantly, you'll learn how to store, back-up and then produce lasting products, like personalized books, that will allow you to relive your travel experiences for years to come.
The bulk of this class will be taught from actual travel images that Peggy's made over the years so expect your vision to be expanded. Sign up for the class and start planning that 'once in a lifetime' trip today!

Shoot and Retouch
Both Jessica and Peggy will be instructing this class. Students will watch as studio lighting setups are built from scratch using a live model.

After the shoot, we will demonstrate how images are selected and edited in Adobe Lightroom and finally retouched in Photoshop.
