Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this photography class:

When we talk about a photographer’s personal vision, we refer not only to the present and how one can photograph with a more refined way of seeing – we must also encompass the complete experiences and ambitions of the photographer, fully embracing one’s past work and future projects. Only by editing and understanding one’s past work, sharpening and refining current work, and devoting oneself to future projects will the photographer truly develop and realize a unique photographic vision.

Join National Geographic photographer Sam Abell as he guides photographers along their journey, conducting a weekend divided amongst shooting assignments, portfolio reviews, and discussions all with one purpose: creating images that have more clarity while simultaneously developing a true, unique personal vision. Sam will discuss his technique of seeing in layers, the importance of seeing well, and how to see with more discriminating power. The goal of this workshop is to help each participant discover where they are now and where their work can take them.

Skill/Experience Level: Students should have a working knowledge of their camera and the ability to shoot in manual mode.
