While these help, in this beginning photography we will focus on composition, or "What's in your shot". Why did you take that shot? What story are you trying to tell? Is there more than one way to shoot that? 

Join us and come learn basic techniques of creating (or composing) a great photo shot as we go on a "photography hunt" of everyday objects found in and around the local park. Don’t have a state of the art camera? No worries. If you have a smartphone, bring that! Whether it's a camera or an iPhone, come join the fun. Photography is constantly changing but an awesome photo never does.

Please note: Masks are optional. Meet at the Renaissance Park Pavilion near the 2 Manufacturers Rd Parking Lot. We will move around the park from there.
