About this event
LearningEver wondered why some photos look perfectly exposed while others are too dark, too bright or blurry? Want to understand how your camera or smartphone can help you take photos with intention?
In this 3-hour hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the fundamentals of exposure and how ISO, aperture and shutter speed work together to control the way your images look. Whether you’re shooting with a film camera, digital camera or smartphone, you’ll learn how to measure light and make intentional choices when taking photographs.
Working together, we’ll create a still life setup and experiment with a movable light source to explore different lighting conditions. You’ll practice adjusting your settings as the light changes, while learning how to create softer or more dramatic lighting and make thoughtful composition choices.
We’ll also look at different camera setups, including film, digital and smartphone photography, discussing the strengths, limitations and best uses of each. Throughout the workshop, you’ll receive guidance on exposure, composition and different approaches to creating images with intention.
