Online: Special Guest Series- Introduction to Wedding Photography- The Basics & The Business, with Bob Fletcher
2020-05-16 19:00 - 21:00 (America/New_York)
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Wedding Photography is a tough business. Wedding photographers must have a mastery of their craft in order to properly photograph a wedding, because it (hopefully) only happens once! They must be able to pose and light their subjects, and edit, process, and deliver the images in a somewhat timely manner. In addition to this, they also need to be able to handle the business-end of the job, including how to properly price their services (and get hired).
Join Hunt’s Photo Education as we welcome photographer Bob Fletcher. In this introduction, Bob will discuss much of “the basics and the business” of wedding photography, including:
•Today’s wedding market
•Photographing the wedding
•Posing & Lighting
•Deliver of Images
•Follow Up
•Photographing weddings for Family & Friends
•How to make money at weddings
•Pricing your work – based on experience and your marketplace
•Training – How do I learn to photograph weddings
•Equipment – What minimum equipment do I need
•Paperwork – Contracts, etc.
About Bob Fletcher
I started photographing weddings professionally in January 1970. My early years were spent photographing weddings for a studio in Orange County, California shooting with medium format Hasselblad cameras. I eventually opened my own studio in Corona, California and my wedding photography took me to many places around the globe– Jamaica, Mexico, Italy, Switzerland, Alaska, Canada, and many, many states within the USA. Our studio eventually became the “Preferred Wedding Photographer” for Disneyland Anaheim and the Disney Hotel, amongst many other wedding venues.
In 1996 I started using the Kodak/Canon DCS hybrid digital cameras and was hooked on digital photography immediately. In 1999 I started working for Canon USA as a “stringer”. That relationship continues to this day.
I have always mentored beginning photographers and taught them the art and business of photography so they could also make a living from something that they loved to do.
After photographing over 3,250 weddings over a 43-year career in weddings, I chose to spend more time teaching photography classes and leading workshops. I currently spend most of my time working for Canon USA, teaching and leading workshops but I still like to photograph family and friends weddings on occasion.
It is a joy to share with others the love that I have for the art of photography and I thank you for being a part of that.
Please note: This class is an introduction to wedding photography. There are many facets to it, too numerous to fit into an introductory class. We plan to continue these classes as a series, delving more deeply into many of these topics. We encourage this class as an introduction.

Online: Photoshop Mini-Sessions- Batch Processing and Actions
2020-05-18 13:00 - 14:15
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
In this Photoshop mini-session we will be focusing on the automated batch-processing tools available in Photoshop. An “action” in Photoshop is a process that will allow you to do the same processes multiple times. For example, if we have a 3-4 step process that we use to soften skin, we minimize the time it takes to do it by creating an “Action”!
We’re going to look at how we can create and record our own Photoshop actions to save our favorite editing styles and apply them to multiple images. This is a great feature to learn about if you want to be quick with your editing and you want to save as much time as possible when editing a lot of photos.
If you are unfamiliar with the basics and workflow in Photoshop, we recommend considering taking our Photoshop Mini-Session- Basics and Workflow!

Online: Beyond the Basics- Lenses: Choosing the Right Glass
2020-05-19 11:00 - 12:15
In response to COVID-19 and recommendations by the CDC of social distancing, Hunt’s Photo Education is presenting our new series of online classes! (Hey! We wanted to do it anyway, this just sped up the process!) These courses will be shorter (about 1 hour), online versions of many classes that we currently offer, plus a few new ones, and include Q&A at the end.
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
There are dozens of decisions to make before purchasing a lens or choosing one to add to your wishlist. Should you use a prime or zoom? Do you need a fast aperture? Why are some lenses so much more expensive? And why are some so heavy? There are even more basic questions worth addressing: What does each lens do? And there are some more complicated: Why would I want a 105mm lens vs. an 85mm lens for portraits? Join Hunt’s Photo Education as we walk you through all the things you should consider before purchasing a new lens.
Understanding more about cameras and lenses is a necessity to improving your flexibility when photographing in a variety of situations. This course is designed to help you feel more comfortable about what lenses should be used in different situations. It is recommended as a follow-up to our Beginner Photography course.

Online: Image Review/Critique- Black & White
2020-05-20 19:00 - 21:00
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
There is so much to think about in photography– from settings and composition to editing and post processing and so much more– that it can be easy to get lost within your images. Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a chance to discuss one of your images in a review and critique session, where we will discuss many of these topics and how they work in your image. Our Hunt’s Photo Education Team firmly believes that presenting personal work and observing peer work is paramount to the growth and development of your photographic vision.
This Week’s Topic
For this week’s topic, all attendees will submit an edited image in black & white. This can either be an image that you have edited that you feel confident in or one in which you have edited and are looking to get a second opinion. We ask that you export the image as a DNG, or save the RAW file with a XMP sidecar file so that we can reedit the image, if need be. (If you’re unsure what a DNG file is, watch this short video about exporting as DNG. If you cannot save the file in either formats, please submit an edited and unedited version so we can reedit, if need be.)
This is a great chance to look deeper into your images, as we will really be looking into the specifics of what to set in the editing process and why. We encourage photographers of all levels to consider this course, as it is as valuable to seasoned professional as it is to a beginner!
This class will be a small group of up to 10-15 attendees. Upon registering, you will receive a confirmation email that will include a link in order to upload images to us for the image review. We will also send out a reminder email a few days prior. Make sure to leave yourself enough time to upload your photo!
Regarding uploading of images
For this critique, we ask that you export a DNG from Lightroom/Capture One or save as the original RAW with the XMP sidecar file. DNG is a RAW format that also embeds in all the changes you have made previously to the image! Since it’s RAW, we can still make “lossless” changes to the DNG file, so that’s very helpful. We’ve made a short video about how to do it that you can watch here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ll87ah4kapx0zul/exporting-to-dng.mp4?dl=0
Join us for this exciting opportunity to share your photographic work with the community!

Still life artwork has a history dating back centuries, and has existed in photography since it became a medium.

Online: Editing Essentials in Lightroom

These courses will be shorter (about 1 hour), online versions of many classes that we currently offer, plus a few new ones, and include Q&A at the end.
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
You’ve taken a fantastic image and you understand the basics of editing in Adobe Lightroom. So what’s the problem? Have we made it good enough? Have we made the right steps along the way? How can we make it better? This class is all about editing one of your images.
Leading up to this class, we will ask for 2-3 images (RAW, if possible) from you in order to edit ONE of them in class. We will do this with each of our 6-8 attendees and in the end, we will have discussed a whole slew of topics that will (hopefully) make you a better editor!
We are constantly asked: Who should take this class? What if you’re new to Lightroom? Yes- because you’ll see the possibilities in the program! What if you don’t use Lightroom? Sure! We will be using Lightroom, but the concepts are very similar throughout other similar programs. What if you just use a cell phone or shoot only in JPEG? I don’t see why not! Just because you shoot in JPEG or with a cell phone doesn’t mean you can’t edit your photos. This is a great all-encompassing class, working out challenges for all levels!
This is a class that you can take as many times as you’d like. Since you’re constantly working with new images, you’re always working out new challenges!
Registering and what is needed
After you register for this class, you will receive a confirmation email that you have signed up. About 48 hours prior to the class time, we will send out an email with the weblink for you to follow as well as information on how to access the class online.

2020-05-21 19:00 - 20:15
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
So often in Lightroom, we discuss how to “get started” in Lightroom, giving you an introduction to the program, and guide you through some of the basic elements of the program. But no less important are the fine details in the finished product, and this class digs deeper into Lightroom to expand on those points.
In this Lightroom class, we will focus on the “Details” and “Effects” panels in Lightroom, covering the following:

Online: Anatomy of an Image
2020-05-22 19:00 - 21:00
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Imagine photographing a night scene. All of your settings have been carefully prepared to maximize quality and your camera has been immaculately composed. Suddenly, snow begins to fall, light at first, but begins to pick up. This is the cherry on top! What a great addition to your image! Unfortunately, the next picture you take doesn’t reflect the current scene: The snow cannot be seen! Thinking in the moment, you’re able to make a few basic adjustments and get the shot you’re looking for…
“What made you decide do it that way?” This question is simple enough, but photography is complex and often doesn’t give us the most straightforward answer. This is a question that we receive often, and it is usually one presented on Photo Walks and Workshops. We won’t be happy with the results we’re getting (or want a different result), so we change course. “What made you decide to do it that way?”
In Anatomy of an Image, we will look at and discuss the thought process on select images from vision, to execution, to editing. In addition to images, we will also talk through this process in a live shoot during the presentation to show how to work through issues we may experience in the field. This is a course that discusses the thought process and theory of photography by discussing the many elements that we can encounter. Join us for a fun evening!

We will discuss Exposure (how light works with the camera), the Big Three Settings (Aperture, Shutter Speed, & ISO), how they affect your picture and how to set them, and what mode to set it to on your camera!

Online: Portraits Outside Using Natural Light and Flash!
2020-05-27 13:00 - 14:15
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Everyone loves taking portraits in natural light, especially when the circumstances are just right, the overcast clouds have moved in, the temperature is in the mid-70s, all the hair and make-up has been done, and the wild horses are galloping in the distance.
Of course, we’re being facetious- sometimes it can be that easy, but not always. Sometimes, it’s a great idea to use natural light for outdoor portraits. Sometimes, we can find the perfect scenario lighting conditions, but what if we can’t? Or what if we want to get a shot some place where the light is different?
Join Hunt’s Photo Educator Paul Nelson as we discuss photographing portraits outdoors using both natural light and flash. We’ll begin by discussing what optimal conditions are for natural light portraits, then add in the element of flash and when to use it, and finish by specifically demonstrating how to set up your camera and flash, off-camera! We’ll also discuss:
•Diffusers and light modifiers
•Where to place your lights (and your subject)
•Different trigger options
•Light meters
•How to light for a variety of scenes
If you feel intimidated by using flash outdoors, join us for a lot of fun!

Online: Image Review/Critique- Intentional Camera Movement
2020-05-27 19:00 - 21:00
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
There is so much to think about in photography– from settings and composition to editing and post processing and so much more– that it can be easy to get lost within your images. Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a chance to discuss one of your images in a review and critique session, where we will discuss many of these topics and how they work in your image. Our Hunt’s Photo Education Team firmly believes that presenting personal work and observing peer work is paramount to the growth and development of your photographic vision.
This Week’s Topic
For this week’s topic, all attendees will submit an image with Intentional Camera Movement. Intentional Camera Movement is moving your camera DURING your picture’s exposure. Moving your camera DURING the exposure is counterintuitive, but the abstract results can be breathtaking. We recently had a presentation on Intentional Camera Movement which produced so many questions, observations, and thoughts about what works and what doesn’t that we decided an image critique would be a wonderful way of talking about what works! You are welcome to edit this image or leave it unedited. However, we ask that you export the image as a DNG, or save the RAW file with a XMP sidecar file so that we can reedit the image, if need be. (If you’re unsure what a DNG file is, watch this short video about exporting as DNG. If you cannot save the file in either formats, please submit an edited and unedited version so we can reedit, if need be.)
We encourage photographers of all levels to consider this course, as it is as valuable to seasoned professional as it is to a beginner!
This class will be a small group of up to 10-15 attendees. Upon registering, you will receive a confirmation email that will include a link in order to upload images to us for the image review. We will also send out a reminder email a few days prior. Make sure to leave yourself enough time to upload your photo!
Regarding uploading of images
For this critique, we ask that you export a DNG from Lightroom/Capture One or save as the original RAW with the XMP sidecar file. DNG is a RAW format that also embeds in all the changes you have made previously to the image! Since it’s RAW, we can still make “lossless” changes to the DNG file, so that’s very helpful. We’ve made a short video about how to do it that you can watch here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ll87ah4kapx0zul/exporting-to-dng.mp4?dl=0
Join us for this exciting opportunity to share your photographic work with the community!

Layout of the class
Our course layout is simple. This course will last about 2 hours, depending on quantity of attendees. During that time, all attendees will be muted. When we critique your image, we will unmute you, so please have a working microphone on your computer/tablet.
During the class, you are welcome to type in questions in the Chat box if you have specific questions as they are asked. We will do our best to answer those questions, but if not, feel free to ask them at the end.

Lensbaby lenses are a unique series of lenses, available for most camera systems that give a variety of looks and effects. From swirling bokeh to dramatic vignettes, velvety glows to swirly blurs, and often with a bright sharp center, these lenses present a unique style for the user experience.
Lensbaby lenses are not always the easiest to use or understand and require a lot of practice and fine-tuning. In this course, we will cover the types of lenses, tips on how to use them, and provide plenty of examples of photos on how to create a unique look.

Online: Image Review/Critique- Unedited Portraits
2020-06-03 19:00 - 21:00
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
There is so much to think about in photography– from settings and composition to editing and post processing and so much more– that it can be easy to get lost within your images. Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a chance to discuss one of your images in a review and critique session, where we will discuss many of these topics and how they work in your image. Our Hunt’s Photo Education Team firmly believes that presenting personal work and observing peer work is paramount to the growth and development of your photographic vision.
This Week’s Topic
For this week’s topic, all attendees will submit an Unedited RAW Portrait. There are a number of moving parts to portraits, from lighting to backgrounds, subject posing to facial expression, camera angle and choice of lens, not to mention camera settings! And so often when we take portraits, we tell ourselves, “Don’t worry- we’ll fix it in post!”
Well, this image review/critique will specifically look at portraits unedited, straight out of the camera. We will be looking at all of the above moving parts, and we’ll also discuss what options we have moving forward with these images, included a discussion on what should be done in editing and what can be done in editing. For this critique, all we will need is the original RAW image without any edits.
We can look at these images in either Lightroom, Capture One, or Adobe Photoshop. Since our discussion on editing is secondary, there is not limitation to what program you use.
We encourage photographers of all levels to consider this course, as it is as valuable to seasoned professional as it is to a beginner! Join us for this exciting opportunity to share your photographic work with the community!
This class will be a small group of up to 10-15 attendees. Upon registering, you will receive a confirmation email that will include a link in order to upload images to us for the image review. We will also send out a reminder email a few days prior. Make sure to leave yourself enough time to upload your photo!
Regarding uploading of images
Unlike many of our critiques where we ask for a DNG file, for this class, we only need a RAW file submitted.
Registering and what is needed
After you register for this class, you will receive a confirmation email that will include information about how to access the online class, including an online ID code that you will need to get into the class. Make sure to save this information. We will also send a reminder email about 48 hours prior to the class time with that same information.
Layout of the class
Our course layout is simple. This course will last about 2 hours, depending on quantity of attendees. During that time, all attendees will be muted. When we critique your image, we will unmute you, so please have a working microphone on your computer/tablet.
During the class, you are welcome to type in questions in the Question box if you have specific questions as they are asked. We will do our best to answer those questions, but if not, feel free to ask them at the end.

Online: Beyond the Basics- Composition
2020-06-04 13:00 - 14:15

After learning “the basics” of digital photography, become more comfortable in the world of digital photography by taking the next step.
Understanding composition in the field can make or break a photograph. Many photographers want to show off their creativity through their photography. The more elements of composition one builds into their repertoire, the greater the depth of options that will be available to the photographer. Beyond the Basics: Composition in Photography discusses those creative options, as well as tips on how to pull it off in the field. While our Beginner class scratches the surface of composition, our Beyond the Basics class goes over in-depth different elements of composition.
Understanding composition is a necessity to improving your flexibility when photographing in a variety of situations. This course is designed to help you feel more comfortable about how to frame your photographic vision in those situations. It is recommended as a follow-up to our Beginner Photography course.

Online: Curves and Color in Lightroom
2020-06-04 18:00 - 19:15
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
There is a world of tones and colors available to you in Adobe Lightroom Classic, but how do you access it and make it your own?
Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a trip into some of the lesser-known panels in Adobe Lightroom Classic, as we delve into the “Curves” and “HSL” Panels… and more! In this class, we will take a strong look at color options in the HSL Panel (that’s Hue-Saturation-Luminance) and how to properly manipulate them. We’ll delve into the Curves Panel to show how to get the most out of the exposure and tonal range of your image by using curves (and what the “curve” actually is!). And we’ll show a little bit of how to get the most out of images by using not just global adjustments, but also local adjustments.
This class is an excellent opportunity to fine-tune color and tone adjustments! If your images lack a punch, this is a great opportunity to see how to obtain it!
