Photography Basics With Your Smartphone

An in-person, one day workshop that offers a hands-on learning experience covering the fundamentals of photography with a smartphone: including smartphone techniques, functions, and settings. It will also cover the basics of photography including composition, lighting basics, and visual storytelling. We will start the morning with theory coffee and introductions, then walk through a presentation together, implementing our skills as we go along. Then we will have a guided photography walk downtown, where we will go through different exercises to immediately practice these new skills. We’ll re-group in the classroom for a supportive photo review and q/a.
