Workshop Description
Hunt’s Photo Education is proud to present our annual Holiday Macro & Tabletop Workshops. These workshops are designed to help you create, compose, and photograph stellar mini-holiday masterpieces. Photographers that participate in these workshops will also have one of their holiday photographs printed 13×19″ and hung in the Hunt’s Photo Gallery in Melrose for the month of December. (More details below.)
We will begin each workshop with a demo that will discuss camera settings, lighting, composition, subject placement, and more. You will then create and photograph your compositions for the remainder of the time during the workshop, with instructor assistance available. Our ultimate goal in this workshop is at least one “final piece” that can be printed on a large scale.
After the workshop, attendees will edit and process their images on their own and upload 1-2 images to the instructors for review. We will review those images, individually discuss your processing choices and make suggestions for additional edits, then print the images as 13×19″. These photographs will be hung in our Hunt’s Photo Gallery in Melrose for the month of December, after which you will be given the print. We will conclude these workshops on Tuesday November 30th with a printed image review.
But wait… There’s more! In addition to all of this, we will also create a holiday card for you on a Moab Entrada Folding Card. While this may seem like a very small item, these cards are stunning– as much in importance as the large scale print!
This will be a fun and challenging workshop that will walk you through the full process of creating stellar holiday macro imagery. We will stay with you during the editing process, and even guide you in understanding the best processing for a final print. Join us for one of our favorite workshops of the year!

Gear
•A Macro lens will be your best lens of choice for this workshop. Remember, we have a rental department at rentals.huntsphoto.com
•Alternatively, you could consider a prime lens (ex 50mm) or a long telephoto zoom lens, but macro is still best
•Macro filters or extension tubes could also work
•For this workshop, we always recommend bringing holiday items that are special to you. Trinkets, ornaments, toys, or anything holiday-related is recommended. We will also have a large collection of items, but if you have something of your own, consider bringing it. Just remember- it should be small, so don’t bring a 2-foot teddy bear unless you want to photograph it very close-up.
•Make sure to bring your tripod with a quick release plate and a shutter release, if you have one.
•Feel free to bring snacks and water
•Bring an extra camera battery and memory cards.
•As always, bring your enthusiasm and creative thoughts!

Online: The Printed Vision- Workshopping Holiday Cards
2021-11-22 19:00 - 20:00, 2021-12-07 19:00 - 21:00
Presentation: Monday November 22nd, 7-8pm • Online!
Review of the Cards: Tuesday December 7th, 7-9pm • Online!
Recommended prerequisite:
Instructor: Paul Nelson
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
About The Printed Vision Series
The printed image shows our successes and our faults at a much higher level of detail than the digital image. To become better photographers, it helps to understand this by creating the printed image as a final product, which is the purpose behind the Printed Vision Series.
Each Printed Vision topic will meet for two sessions. In the first session, we will discuss the topic and elaborate on editing with examples. This will include discussion of exposure, dynamic range and color, but also deeper points, such as noise reduction, image sharpening and grain. In between sessions 1 and 2, attendees will independently process 1-2 images and submit them to the instructor for printing. We will print one of the two images leading into the second session and discuss some of the challenges we face in printing them.
You do not need to produce a new image for this class and can go into your archives to print, but you are welcome to go out into the field and create something new based on the topic!
This Month’s Printed Vision Session: Workshopping Holiday Cards
In case you haven’t noticed, this instructor puts a lot of stress and effort into holiday and greeting cards! So many things can be said about printing small: If you can’t make it good small, you can’t make it good big; printing small presents a wonderful level of intimacy; cards are a way to easily distribute your work, your passions, your vision! In this instructor’s mind, nothing is better than a pristine, home-printed card.
The purpose of this class is twofold: 1- Find an image and workshop it for maximum effect in a printed card and 2- Work with you on how to print. IMPORTANT: In every printed vision class, we print images. Usually, it’s a large scale print, but here we will be printing cards. In the end, we will print 10 cards that will be yours to distribute. Please note: We will not have the ability to print hundreds of holiday cards for you in this way. The purpose is for us to see the end result and create small-batch custom prints accordingly.
Receiving Your Print
After the class, your print can either be mailed to you or picked up at one of our Hunt’s Photo store locations.

Online:Personal Vision Series- People
2021-11-26 19:00 - 20:00, 2021-12-06 19:00 - 21:00
Presentation: Friday November 26th, 7-8pm • Online!
Image Review/Critique: Monday December 6th, 7-9pm • Online!
Instructor: Don Toothaker
Class Size: Limited to 8 attendees
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Join Hunt’s Photo Education as we help grow your knowledge, creativity, and artistic expression with our expanded Personal Vision Series. These classes are designed to provide you time, opportunity, and guidance in shaping your creative photographic voice. We will give an overview on a specific topic in an online class session, then give you time to go into the field by yourself (or with someone else, if you choose) to complete an assignment based on that topic. We will reconvene a few days later for an online image review to discuss elements of your images.
The Personal Vision Series is a crossroads of many different ideas that we offer with Hunt’s Photo Education: Topic-based instruction/classes, Photo Walks, & Image Reviews. However, unlike a Photo Walk where we will all take a certain direction, for the “Walk” portion, you will be asked to journey out on your own to photograph. This will cause you to be the driving force of your creativity and vision!
This week’s topic is People. We will have an instructional online presentation on the first date and will reconvene for our Image Review on the second date. You will have that time period in between to photograph and edit our assignment.
Your personal creative voice is critical to your growth as a photographer and as an artist. Join us for to help grow that voice!

Hunt's Photo Nifty Fifty Workshop: Haymarket & Faneuil Hall
2021-11-27 09:00 - 12:00, 2021-12-01 19:00 - 21:00
Saturday, November 27th, 9am-12pm • Boston, MA
Image Review: Wednesday, December 1st, 7-9pm • Online!

Working in the field with only a 50mm lens!
Followed by an image review & critique
Recommended prerequisite: Working knowledge of your camera We also recommend having some of the knowledge from our Beginner Photography class
Must have a 50mm lens
All Skill Levels Welcome
Instructor: Don Toothaker
Class Size: 8 attendees

About the Nifty Fifty Workshops
Every photographer at one point or another has the internal struggle before going to photograph: What lenses should I bring with me today? The common answer is as many as I can without being too uncomfortable. And so we pack up our wide, standard, telephoto, prime, and macro lenses and head out into the field, forcing ourselves to endure limitless choices while sacrificing simplicity.
Our Nifty Fifty workshops flip the script and force you to only carry one lens: A 50mm lens, nostalgically referred to as a “nifty fifty”. With limitations, what can you– the photographer, the creator, the artist– achieve?
These workshops will start with our basic photo walk, where we will meet in the field and work with only a 50mm lens in a specific location. Attendees will then submit a handful of images for an online image review, to be held a few days later. During that image review, we will be able to see others’ work, discuss how to achieve different effects, and consider editing choices. This is an excellent workshop for all photographers–from Beginner to Advanced–because it forces you to work in a different way.
Walk Description
For this workshop, we will be photographing an energetic morning at Boston’s open–air fruit and vegetable market at Haymarket Square. During the walk, we will discuss different elements of street photography and how to effectively photograph in these environments, including exposure, focusing, image composition, and the ability to make quick adjustments in the field, all using 50mm glass. Haymarket features a wide variety of people, color, and activity as vendors work their trade. Our walk will begin at the market, photographing the scenes and the people and continue into the Faneuil Hall. Photographers of all skill levels are encouraged to attend!
*Question: Are other prime lenses acceptable? Olympus/Panasonic users may use a 25mm lens, since it gives the same look as a 50mm and other primes can be used as an alternative, but we ask that you try to keep it at one prime in as close to that range as possible. Remember- this is a “nifty fifty” workshop, not a “mighty ninety” workshop. (And does that even really rhyme?)
Updated COVID-19 Policies for outdoor Hunt’s Photo Walks and Workshops
Hunt’s Photo Education is aligning with CDC and state guidelines and will no longer require face masks for our outdoor Photo Walks. If you are more comfortable wearing a mask, please feel free to do so. We also recommend bringing a mask, just in case. We also ask that you maintain social distance of 6 feet from one another.
In this workshop, our attendee maximum is higher, but we will have two instructors.
As always, if you are sick or feeling unwell, STAY HOME! We will gladly give you a credit towards a future walk.
These guidelines will stay in place until further notice. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at classes@huntsphoto.com.

Flash! Blending Available Light with Your Speedlights
2021-12-04 09:00 - 15:00
Saturday, December 4th, 9am-2pm • Melrose, MA
Featuring best practices on how to best use your speedlight on and off the camera
Recommended prerequisite: Working knowledge of your camera We also recommend having some of the knowledge from our Beginner Photography class
All Skill Levels Welcome
Instructors: Paul Nelson
Class Size: Maximum 10 attendees
Workshop Description
Speedlights (aka “flashes”) are truly awesome tools in photography. Where there is no light, we can create it. The problem is most speedlight owners struggle with settings, the direction of the flash, and how to get everything to look as you want it to! This is most evident at family gatherings and events: The lights are low and therefore the flash (when used improperly) is even more jarring! How can we eliminate that “deer in the headlights” look?
Never fear! In this workshop, we will teach you how to blend the speedlight with available light to create stunning results! We will simplify speedlights, camera settings, and teach you some of the essential basics to using your speedlight for family gatherings, events, and even still-life! Whether you are in a living space with a few spare lamps on or a large event space, we will spell out the tools to get the job done. We will also work with the flash on and off-the-camera to show the variety of options there are! Since it is the holiday season and the season of lights, we will emphasize scenarios that are common during the holidays, working first with still life, then portraits.
This will be a great learning experience for anyone looking to get practice with your speedlight! We recommend you have a speedlight for this workshop. Photographers of all skill levels are encouraged to attend.

Beginner Photography, Part 2 of 2- Hunt's Photo, Providence
2021-12-09 18:00 - 20:00

Online: The Printed Vision- Making a Fine Art Print
2021-12-09 19:00 - 20:00
Presentation: Thursday December 9th, 7-8pm • Online!
Printed Image Review: Thursday December 16th, 6-8pm • In our Hunt’s Melrose store or Online!
Recommended prerequisite: An interest in printing (But you do NOT need a printer!)
Instructor: Paul Nelson
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
About The Printed Vision Series
The printed image shows our successes and our faults at a much higher level of detail than the digital image. To become better photographers, it helps to understand this by creating the printed image as a final product, which is the purpose behind the Printed Vision Series.
Each Printed Vision topic will meet for two sessions. In the first session, we will discuss the topic and elaborate on editing with examples. This will include discussion of exposure, dynamic range and color, but also deeper points, such as noise reduction, image sharpening and grain. In between sessions 1 and 2, attendees will independently process 1-2 images and submit them to the instructor for printing. We will print one of the two images leading into the second session and discuss some of the challenges we face in printing them.
You do not need to produce a new image for this class and can go into your archives to print, but you are welcome to go out into the field and create something new based on the topic!
This Month’s Printed Vision Session: Making a Fine Art Print
To print fine art or not to print fine art: That is the question. What does it mean to make a fine art print? What photographic papers define fine art? What editing choices should we make to get through the emotions of the print? How do we calculate our editing with our paper choices?
In this class, we will discuss the answers to these questions in our instructional online presentation, held on the first date, then workshop your images in order to make a fine art print. We will reconvene the following week for our Printed Image Review. You will have that time period in between to edit and submit your images. In the end, you will receive a fine art print of your edited image up to 13×19″ in size. (Please note: The cost of a 12×18 or 13×19 print on fine art paper is $35-$40; the cost of this class includes the cost of that print!)
Remember, tis the season, and we don’t need to “buy buy buy” in order to give a wonderfully creative gift. Consider creating a fine art print and giving that to a friend or loved one! We will also discuss framing options and how that plays into the holidays.
Join us for this quintessential Printed Vision class!
Receiving Your Print
After the class, your print can either be mailed to you or picked up at one of our Hunt’s Photo store locations.
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.
