Intro to Photography $150

Saturday, February 7 | 10:30am-2:30pm

Whether you’re picking up a camera for the very first time or brushing up on your skills, this two-day workshop is designed to help you feel more confident, creative, and inspired behind the lens.

We’ll begin with the foundations. Learning your camera, exploring key settings, and understanding techniques that apply across different styles of photography. Together, we’ll focus on three core areas: portraiture, landscape, and personal projects. Here, you can explore which direction excites you most.

In this intensive session, you'll learn the best practices for shooting and how to approach different types of photos. You’ll have guided practice time to apply new skills, experiment, and ask questions as you work. Then, you'll critique the images you captured and identify ways to improve. This format creates space for both individual feedback and group learning.

You’ll also have the chance to print a selection of your photos on-site! You’ll leave with tangible 4x6 prints that you can take home, share, or keep as a reminder of your progress.

This workshop is designed to meet you where you are. Attendees will walk away with a solid grasp of how to use their camera and a sense of excitement to keep practicing. You will find fresh inspiration, structured practice, and the chance to learn in community. Because the workshop rotates monthly, returning students are welcome to join again and continue building their skills in a supportive, creative environment.

Come ready to learn, practice, and see the world a little differently through your lens.
