Join us for an introductory workshop focusing on nature photography! Get a chance to explore the basic functions of a camera and how each can influence the photographic process. Learn how compositional elements can affect the final product, and then put it all together with practice outdoors! Wrap up with a conversation on editing tools, and leave knowing that you can approach nature photography with a new level of confidence!

Notes about this workshop:

Participants will spend some time outdoors taking photos- be ready to walk around outside.

Participants should bring a camera or device for taking photos: a digital camera would be better for this workshop than a phone, but all are welcome regardless.

If you have a laptop or tablet for editing photos, bring this along. We will discuss editing software (including free trials of paid software, as well as free software).

This is intended as a beginner workshop. We will not be covering advanced topics.

Participants should bring a sack lunch.
