If you already know how to use your camera, here's an opportunity to develop your own personal style while focusing on creating and critiquing various styles of photographing people. Discuss how to approach subjects and explore different lighting techniques to achieve varying effects. Examine work by master photographers, as well as student work, to gain a greater understanding of how to make a portrait that captures the essence of your subject. Knowledge of camera use required. All camera formats welcome.

Light is a key component to photography! Learn how to see light and use it to your advantage to transform your image making. Students will gain an in-depth understanding of exposure and lighting while experimenting with their external flashes, studio lighting and natural lighting. Knowledge of camera use required.

Do it like the pros! Learn to photograph and process your digital images in the RAW file format—a must-have tool for professional photographers. Unlike jpegs, tiffs, and other file formats, RAW files hold the greatest amount of detail and information about your photograph. Your images will appear sharper and more vibrant, with a fuller range of shadows and highlights.
