Phone Photography: Shoot, Edit, Organise & Print
Event description
About the course:
The essence of great photography is in the story — visual storytelling has strong ties to social and environmental consciousness.
Each month, we will share new techniques to enable you to deepen your storytelling through photography. Each monthly session will involve hands-on photography as well as an editing session where we will ‘develop’ our favourite photo from the session to share on the group's support on WhatsApp.
"You may love to take photos when you travel, or you may love photographing your pets, or enjoy photographing the kids...whatever you love taking photos of, this course will help you immensely!"
