Too often we feel that our photography comes to a halt during inclement weather. However, there is ample opportunity to make use of our creativity while staying indoors. Many household items, cut flowers, books, antiques, jewelry, and glassware all make for wonderful subjects while using natural window light. Every table in your house can become a landscape of opportunity with some imagination and creativity.
In our Holiday Macro & Tabletop workshop, we will specialize in creating holiday-themed macro images. Who doesn’t want to spruce up their holiday cards with a beautifully exposed and composed holiday-themed macro photograph?? At the end of the workshop, our goal is to have each photographer leave with a beautiful print. We will spend our day creating a variety of still life set ups, unique macro scenarios, and learning about the use of light and light modifiers, all with a holiday spin!
A Very Special Printing Addition!
As an additional bonus to our workshop, Hunt’s Photo Education will also be making some prints! Each attendee will have the ability to pick out an image they produce from the day and have it printed as a holiday card on Moab’s Entrada Folding Cards. Our Education Team will be printing these throughout the afternoon and will guide attendees through the basic print process in Lightroom.
