About this experience

Learning composition will allow you to take better photographs with ANY camera and lens. Better composition will also help you enjoy photography more and allow you to take the photos that make your friends say: "WOW, how did you take that shot?" 

In the Composition Deep Dive class we will: 

• Look at some historical photographs, why they work, and how to "look" at photographs with a more critical eye.


• Study many compositional elements with comprehensive examples that clearly illustrate the methods at hand. 


• You will receive a PDF file of all the compositional elements discussed in class so you can always refer back to them. 


• 
  Discuss and projects for you to engage with that will allow you to practice and improve.  

In the second part of the Composition Deep Dive class we will: 

• Walk around the camera store and shopping center as a group to practice what we learned in the first part. 


• Discuss composition in the field with the instructor giving you suggestions and pointing out examples of compositional elements in the field.

After the class, you are invited to send in some photos to the instructor to receive some feedback for your photos!

Who Should Take This Class? 

This is for beginning to intermediate photographers who want to take better images! This is a FANTASTIC companion to the Photo Basics 101 class and will build on that class to help you engage more deeply with photography. 

Required Materials
