Learn Photography
This course provides a theoretical, technical, and aesthetic foundation in digital photography. Students learn technical camera usage and principles of design through assignments that focus on concepts of photographic composition.
My approach is simple and straight forward, I have been a photographer for twenty years and an insructor for almost that long. I have a great love of photography and I like to share this passion with others. I am a thoughtful and patient instructor.
Small lectures, handouts, and assignments are given in order for the student to get the maximum amount of involvement in a short class format.
