Classes and Workshops

Modern digital cameras, and film cameras, take care of the technical details for us, but because of this, rather than in spite of it, our brains are lulled into non-thinking, automatic mode, we think the camera is going to do it all for us. Our classes will teach you how to control your camera so it takes the photo the way you see it in your imagination.

Photography is going through an exciting transition period as many film photographers are beginning to explore the new capabilities of digital cameras. While the fundamentals have remained similar, other aspects are markedly different. This is a great time to get involved with digital photography.

Class size is limited so register early to secure your seat.
