We will cover the artistic elements that go into making a photograph as well as the key technical aspects of your cameras and lenses. Much emphasis is placed on recognizing the quality of light, element of time, point of view and photographic design and composition. All while exploring your personal style and subject matter.
We strongly encourage experimentation, new ideas and techniques to stretch your image making and imagination. We'll be in the field taking photographs during this workshop and continuously working towards creating beautiful Fine Art pieces that you can be proud of. Our goal is to help you find new ways of seeing photographically.
Come along to help mentally focus your photographic approach and discover your personal point of view. Let us help you build a bridge between the artistic and technical worlds of photography.
This workshop will also include portfolio reviews, so bring a few of your images that you are willing to discuss with Nikonian master photographer Darryll Schiff.
Our Fine Art workshops are a combination of a few elements:
1. Learning about fine art and what constitutes fine art. We'll be studying the fine art masters as well as looking at your own artistic vision.
2. Field work and photography on day one and day two with the class participants. Our goal is to shoot your own fine art and create work that meets your artistic vision.
3. Daily critique with the instructor of each student's photographs.
4. Camera technique, setup, and methods. We'll be covering the practical and hands-on camera setups that go into creating artistic photographs.
