Don’t think too long. And be honest!
If you said, “Blimey, yes!” to any or all of the above, we’ve got just what you need: The Art and Science of Photography Workshop.
You’ve unboxed your camera. Now unbox your understanding.
Photography can help us discover the world, and ourselves in the process. But to fulfil this potential, you need mastery of your camera and some critical fundamentals. Not in your backpack, but on your fingertips. So you can merely look at a scene and know what to do. Like how you can whizz through a gap in traffic before anyone can utter ‘barnacles!’
If you’d like the concepts of photography to be as clear as daylight, and enshrined in you like a mummy in a pyramid, if you’d like to bridge the gap between what you see and what you get and build the knowledge into your muscle memory, and if you’d like to make the most of your camera, this is where it all starts.
Join this Workshop and let us train you to be a sharp-shooter. Of the artistic kind.
Master the basics and tame the advanced.
Photography is art as well as science. And this Workshop delves into both. Because we know exactly what it takes. That’s why it starts with the basics, polishes the nuances, delves into details, and addresses the advanced. In sum it will turn the camera and the concepts of photography into extensions of your body and mind. So matters of exposure, focusing and metering don't stand in your way when you wish to translate your glorious vision to an unforgettable picture.
And that’s why the end of this Workshop will be the beginning of you as a photographer.
It may take several pages to enlist all the reasons. So here’s a concise, curated selection.
This Workshop will transform you as a photographer. Specifically, these are some of the things you'll be able to do right after it:
Let us help you make the foundation. So you may build a beautiful monument.
