Learn artistic techniques to enhance snapshots of family vacations, birthdays, and other special events.  This course will include camera basics and photo software, how to really “see” photo ops, “framing” the photo before you take it, how to critique your own work, and more.  This course is for those new to photography as well as those who want to improve their techniques.  Please bring digital camera and have the ability to print photos between class meetings.  Also, wear good walking shoes since the class will go on a few photo excursions downtown.
