Digital Photography Youth Summer Camp

This class will introduce you to the wonderful world of DIGITAL STILL PHOTOGRAPHY. You will learn to transform ordinary photos into images you will be proud to show.In this class, we will familiarize you with the most important features of your camera, smart phone or other device so that you can get your best photos. You will learn how deal with a variety of lighting situations and recognize when the lighting is right for general people photos, formal portraits, architecture, small objects, and landscapes. Students will learn compositional techniques, and will be taught how to edit photos using Adobe Lightroom®. The camp will involve two (2) off- site photo shoots during the week. At the end of the week, students will have their best photos featured in a photo exhibit at the Midpen Media Center. Students are encouraged use their own cameras (or smart phones, devices) if they wish. The Media Center will also supply still cameras for class sessions.
