Online: Why Tether? A Primer for Why (and How) Photographers Tether Their Camera to the Computer
2020-04-30 13:00 - 14:15
Please note: We are slightly changing how attendees register for events. See details below course description!
What is Tethering? Tethering is all about being able to instantly see your newly taken photographic images on another device. Why is it important?

Have you ever wanted to be able to see the fine details of your image immediately after taking it? Have you ever wanted your client to easily see the image? Have you ever wanted more than one person to see an image instantly while working? These are just a few great examples of why you would shoot tethered.
Join Hunt’s Photo Education’s Paul Nelson and Tether Tools’ Liz Boettcher as they discuss the importance of tethering and how it can benefit your workflow, including a discussion of the various methods and programs available for tethering, and a live demo where we will work take some images while tethered to see how it all works! Tethering is fun and fascinating, and a terrific tool for the hobbyist and professional alike! Join us as we demystify tethering!

Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Let’s face it: Photographing children can be tough work! They have boundless energy, they don’t always listen to instructions, and they do NOT want to stay in one place so that you can take precious photographic memories! This is compounded by how complicated photography can be. And then comes a quarantine order! It’s enough to make a photographer pull their hair out! But we’ve gotta stay cool and calm as child photographers! It has to be fun and childlike to make the experience truly amazing! So how do we do it and where do we start?
Join Hunt’s Photo Educator Paul Nelson, who has photographed both of his children every single day of their lives, for some tips and tricks to get the best results possible. This workshop is part of a series that focuses on how to photograph toddlers and children. In this class, we’ll diversify and talk about how to photograph kids indoors and outside, both in a casual environment. Among other items, this class will cover:
•Inside: Using flash vs. natural light
•Lens options and basic settings
•The basics of photographing inside using flash, including starting camera settings
•How to create a natural environment
•Tips and tricks on how to keep toddlers and children interested, involved, & engaged
This workshop primarily deals with working with children aged 2-6 but concepts can be applied to children of any age, including those both young (and old) at heart!

2020-05-05 11:00 - 12:15
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Have you ever heard a photographer disparage High ISOs because of their apparent inferiority? Is there really something wrong with shooting at a High ISO?

Join Hunt’s Photo Education as we dive right into the technology and art of ISO! We’ll discuss many of the key points above and look at the high points of shooting with camera cranked to ISO 3200 (and beyond!)

Instructor: Don Toothaker
Class Size: Limited to 10-15 attendees/session
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 image. This can either be an image that you want to have critiqued for its technical prowess alone OR an image that you would like to have looked at from an editing perspective (in other words, giving suggestions on what direction to take the image in editing). This is a wonderful, unique opportunity, as editing can cover up many flaws, and in viewing unedited images, we strip our images down to the bare essentials! 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!
During the critique, all attendees will be muted. When we critique your image, we will unmute you, so please have a working microphone on your computer/tablet.
Join us for this exciting opportunity to share your photographic work with the community!

Online: Photoshop Mini-Sessions- Adding Textures to Photos
2020-05-07 11:00 - 12:15
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
One of the most fun and creative ways to utilize Adobe Photoshop (as opposed to many other editing programs, including Lightroom) is through using multiple layers. Adding textures to photographs or areas of a photograph are an excellent opportunity to add character, depth, and a uniqueness to an image!
In this class, we will demonstrate and work with images in a step-by-step process to take a photo from Lightroom (or anywhere on your computer), import into Photoshop, add a texture, and then save the file.
This class will specifically cover…
•Layers
•Masking
•Blend modes
The tools we utilize here don’t need to end with just textures. The concepts we will cover in the class can also be applied to other areas–changing the opacity of a layer or image, creating masks which allow you to change one specific area of a photo, and more. If you have an interest in learning more about Photoshop, this is an excellent opportunity!

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.

Basic understanding of Aperture, Shutter, ISO & What Exposure is
Beginner Photography understanding
Instructor: Don Toothaker
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Creativity, and the creative process, can often be unconventional. The fundamentals of exposure and composition suggest stabilizing your camera to achieve sharp, well-designed photographs, but at times it is necessary to break the rules and create from your personal vision. Moving your camera DURING the exposure is counterintuitive, but the abstract results can be breathtaking. Join us to learn more on how to create with Intentional Camera Movement!

Instructor: Don Toothaker
Class Size: Limited to 10-15 attendees/session
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 RAW image. 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. 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 or 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 and can be exported from Lightroom or Capture One. 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
During the critique, all attendees will be muted. When we critique your image, we will unmute you, so please have a working microphone on your computer/tablet.
Join us for this exciting opportunity to share your photographic work with the community!

Online: HDR in Lightroom
2020-05-14 13:00 - 14:15
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
This class will focus on a lesser known feature of Lightroom Classic, High Dynamic Range photo merging. Sometimes a scene has too broad a range to capture in one shot: either the highlights are overexposed or the shadows are too dark and lose detail. This class will explain the technique of how to capture the bright & dark parts of the scene and then how to process the results in Lightroom Classic resulting in a fantastic photo!

Online: Curves and Color in Lightroom
2020-05-15 15:00 - 16:15
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!

Online: Special Guest Series- Introduction to Wedding Photography- The Basics & The Business, with Bob Fletcher
2020-05-16 19:00 - 21:00
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!
