This style of photography has a relaxed natural touch, creating candid spontaneous images that capture the personality of the subject. The aim is to capture the laughter, the tears..all the emotion for you to look back on in years to come. Learn how to create images that have a natural, unobtrusive quality to them. The aim is to capture not only the way the subject looks but also the emotions involved during that moment.

Black & White Photography One-Day Workshop
Cost: $150
Course Code: B&W
Limited to 10 students only to a class
When properly done, a black and white photograph can in many cases show much more emotion, feeling and mystery than its colour counterpart. Quite often a colour print of the same subject can just overpower the viewer with the sheer beauty of its colour, while hiding all feeling of the scene. Take the example of an elderly fisherman, with deep wrinkled lines from years of exposure to the elements. Now imagine his face captured in the MANY shades of the black and white photograph, from black through the many shades of grey.

Though digital techniques and equipment are vastly different from the familiar surroundings of our darkrooms, enlargers and bottles of chemicals, the aims are the same.

Lighting & Flash 1-Day Workshop
Cost: $150
Course Code: LFW
Limited to 10 students only to a class
As photographers, we use the language of light to record and interpret the world around us.
How well we understand and use light affects the clarity and expressive power of our pictures.
Bright sunlight is very popular for outdoor photography. Colours are at their brightest when the sun is shining. The bright colours and the sparkling highlights and interesting shadows created by a radiant sun produce brilliant pictures. With your 35 mm camera and an accessory (or built-in) electronic flash unit, you can take flash pictures indoors just about as easily as you take pictures in daylight. And as you'll see, you can also use your flash to improve the quality of your outdoor pictures, as well as to create special effects both indoors and out.
Preserving Family Albums 1-Day Workshop
Cost: $150
Course Code: FAW

Learn how to preserve your Family Albums and correctly display & store your images.
