SEMINAR DESCRIPTION: Are you new to the wonderful world of digital photography? Are you confused about what to do with all of those digital files that you are accumulating on your memory card, and are afraid to transfer them over to your computer? And, once you do get them on your computer, then what?
Perhaps you've been at things for a while now and you have created hundreds, if not thousands, of digital image files, but your file and folder organization on your cmputer leaves a lot to be desired. And, you're probably spending more time behind the computer than you are out creating more photos.
In other words, your digital "production line" is inefficient and lacks consistency. Of equal concern, years into the future, how are you ever going to find a specific image that you have stored on your hard drive or on some other media?

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION: This is where photography meets fun! In just one evening session, students learn about what goes into a making a great artistic composition. David eases into the the evening's material by introducing the fundamental building blocks of any photo or piece of visual art (the "Elements of Design"), followed by easy-to-apply guidelines for improving photographic compositional techniques. Over the course of the evening, the student will not only learn how to create more-pleasing images, but will also learn how to "see" more effectively. David also gives each student, if desired, the opportunity to have their work critiqued as part of the interactive discussion.

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION: This five-session workshop provides the essentials for any avid photographer to understand the fundamental operation of their DSLR camera and lenses. It is also a great lead-in to many of David's more-advanced "application" workshops (e.g., Travel; Events; Photographing Children; HDR Photography), this five-evening workshop is designed with the hobbyist and aspiring professional photographer in mind who is ready to take their artistic skills to the next level, learning the manual functions of their camera, and leaving behind the automatic "little green box" setting.
In the first part of this series of classes, David walks the students through the mysteries of photographic exposure, including in-depth insight into lens aperture, camera shutter speed and sensor ISO. Equally important, he provides a logical explanation of your camera's light meter. David also covers the creative side of camera operation, including depth-of-field control and management of moving subject matter. This k
