This five half-day workshop jumpstarts younger kids (ages 7-12) to experience the wonders of photography. This class is 30% theory and 70% practice picture taking. Each student will be loaned a digital camera while exploring the operation and functions of the camera, lighting, and composition. Each lesson contains an introduction to the project with photography tips tailored to the assignment. The student will learn a single concept and photograph the subject in-the-field or in a classroom setting. This will give your child a great base for jumping into projects where they will actually be practicing their photography and to reinforce the concepts and encourage creativity. Finally, each lesson culminates in a photo review where we discuss with the individual their best shots and gives tips on how to improve them.
Registration opens January 2, 2018. More details about this course available at http://photo4kids.org/.
