Friday June 20th
Looking forward to getting better photos from your existing or new camera? Wanting to learn more about the operation of your camera? How about better compositions – getting your photos looking like you thought they should be? This is a workshop for the beginner to the more accomplished photographer. We will spend Friday evening going over the basics of camera use, camera controls and better composition. On Saturday we will take a field trip to practice what was covered in the Friday class. We will then return to the gallery at 4:30 to 6:30 for presentation and discussion of the images taken on the field trip (bring a laptop to the final session, if you have one). Both days will offer the opportunity for class discussion and individual questions. It is recommended that you have an actual camera, however a phone might also prove okay. The class can also offer the information needed to find a new camera. Bring your camera to both sessions!
The class will be taught by professional photographer and photo educator, Jerry Benner, who has over 60 years of photo experience from film to digital. Jerry is a juried member of Missouri Artists on Main as well as Best of Missouri Hands. You can view some of his photos in the MAOM Gallery. He has taught photography to elementary thru high school students as well as on the university level. His photos have been displayed in numerous galleries in the St. Louis area and has had three individual shows in the Ashby-Hodge Gallery in mid-Missouri as well as the state capitol. He brings fun and experience to all in his workshops.
Class has a minimum of 4 students and a maximum of 8. Class is open to youth between 14 and older, however a parent must be present at both sessions (the parent need not pay the cost of the class unless taking the class). Transportation for the field trip is the responsibility of the student.
