Hunt's Photo Walk: Charles River Museum of Industry & Innovation
2019-02-01 11:00 - 15:00
Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a look into the past at the Charles River Museum of Industry in Waltham. In this workshop, we will discuss Subject Development, Image Composition, Macro Photography, HDR, Black and White Photography, and Architectural Photography.
The industrial revolution changed our country, and the world, forever. The Charles River Museum of Industry is currently housed in what is considered the first ever factory in America. In Waltham, the closed factory now plays the role of housing a history of the tools and machinery used in industry. This walk is an excellent chance to photograph the grit of the previous centuries under the Industrial Revolution, and is a chance to work in low-light environments where the lighting sources cannot be controlled and focus on macro photography.
For the bulk of the time, we will explore the interior of the museum, looking for images that tell the significant historic story they offer. If weather allows, we will also photograph on the exterior of the location. Join us for a creative day of looking into the past!

If you are attending this walk, we will send out more specific instructions to you a few days prior to the walk. Please note: Some slight details above can be subject to change. This email will detail any of those minor changes.

Capture to Print: Macro and Flowers
2019-02-02 09:00 - 17:00 | Hunt’s Photo, Melrose, 100 Main St., Melrose, MA, 02176, United States
Printing your photos will make you a better photographer. The first step to creating a great print is by understanding how to create a great photograph in the field.
Capture-To-Print is an intermediate workshop that focuses not only on photography, but also editing and printing! Half photo workshop, half editing and printing, we will take you through the whole process–from Capture to Print— to demonstrate what is important in the field, how to effectively process photos, and why printing is a necessity.
Our process for this Capture to Print workshop will be a little different from our previous workshops. We will begin in our Melrose classroom with lighting setups and a variety of flowers, which we will photograph over the course of the morning. We will transition from photographing to editing in the early afternoon. Attendees are encouraged to bring their computers–laptops or all-in-ones are fine (iMacs are welcome)–in order to do their own editing. Attendees should have Adobe Lightroom and/or Photoshop on their computer or a comparable program. We will be available to help with the processing of images during this time. We will then view these edits, critique, and discuss them with the rest of the class while also creating 13×19″ prints.
This will be a fun and challenging workshop that will walk you through the full process of creating a photograph. The process of printing is integral to developing one’s photographic vision.
Approximate schedule for the day:
9am- Introductions, discussion of lighting and macro techniques
10am- Photographing of flowers, macro
12pm- Begin editing (Attendees are encouraged to bring a bagged lunch and take a short break during this time)
2pm- Review, critique, and printing

If you are attending this workshop, we will send out more specific instructions to you a few days prior to the workshop. Please note: Some slight details above can be subject to change. This email will detail any of those minor changes.
If you have specific flowers that you would like to bring to photograph, you are welcome to bring them as well.

We’ll show setups using the flash both on- and off-camera, and demonstrate the proper use of reflectors and other light modifiers so you can create portraits that truly capture your subject’s persona in the best light.
Make sure to bring your camera with a charged battery and a standard zoom or prime lens in the 50mm to 85mm range. If you own a Speedlight, feel free to bring it!

2019-02-09 09:00 - 2019-02-10 17:00 | Hunt’s Photo, Melrose, 100 Main St., Melrose, MA, 02176, United States
The dynamic duo of Bobbi Lane, the Mistress of Light, and Lee Varis, the Sultan of Skin take you on a photographic adventure to master the art of creating flattering and effective portraits of real people. You will learn the essential techniques for photographing normal people in the real world, without fancy wardrobe, expensive hair and makeup, or extreme and difficult retouching.
Bobbi will show how to use corrective techniques to overcome challenging subjects and Lee will take the results and refine and finish the image into a marketable photograph.
Shooting tethered into the computer, we demonstrate comprehensive lighting techniques and effective posing, helping make the most pleasing portraits of difficult subjects: thin or heavy, spectacled, young or old, folliclely challenged, red or wrinkled. Lee will take the captured images to the next level with Lightroom and Photoshop enhancement techniques for quick fixes and complete makeovers that don’t require special artistic talent, but instead utilize the power inherent in the basic software without extra plug-ins or extensions.
These techniques apply to all kinds of portraits: personal headshots, business, couples and families. Learning these skills help you make stronger and more salable images.

2019-03-16 10:00 - 12:00 | Hunt’s Photo, Holyoke, 98 Lower Westfield Rd, Holyoke, MA, 01040, United States
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.

In this hands-on workshop, we will talk about how to elevate still life images. We will discuss how to compose, light, and photograph your subject to convey the story and mood you envision. We will also show you how to get it right in camera so you can spend less time editing and more time shooting!

Hunt's Photo Adventure: Cuba- Real & Raw
2019-03-17 - 2019-03-26
Simply put, Cuba is like no other place on earth. The spellbinding history from the early Carribean-Spanish explorers to the mid- twentieth century reads like a legendary novel. Life for the Cuban people changed dramatically in the 1960’s. It’s as if the country was placed in a time capsule for fifty years and suddenly emerged, opening the doors to all who wish to explore. One can certainly feel the complexities of Cuba’s history and the strength of those who call it their home. The music makes you dance and the arts convey the struggles and triumphs. The ranchers are as rugged as the untouched land and the cigars are worth the trip alone. Cuba is absolutely fascinating.
Hunt’s Photo and Don Toothaker want to welcome guest instructor Laura L. Gingerich to this photography workshop. We plan to challenge you to slow down, think, observe, anticipate and feel each and every shot. Our days will be full of photographic opportunities, instruction and discussion as we experience a very unique look into the heart and soul of Cuba.
Please note that this workshop is being coordinated by our travel agency. Because of this, please note that registration and payment are handled by the agency. Registration and more detailed itinerary information can be found here.

Advanced Printing Techniques- Printing in Adobe Lightroom, Hunt's Photo, Melrose
2019-03-23 13:00 - 16:00 | Hunt’s Photo, Melrose, 100 Main St., Melrose, MA, 02176, United States
For ages, darkroom printing was an art form that was destined only for those that had a darkroom. Now they practically give digital printers away, and what darkroom techniques were sequestered to your basement can now be duplicated in a corner office.
But Digital Printing, while simple in concept, has a myriad number of curiosities and questions associated with it. Among the issues printers run into are color correction, proper exposure, ability to utilize multiple papers, understanding how to edit for print, how to print in black and white, and why and when to use certain tools. In this course, we will answer these questions, as well as refer back to some of the more basic elements of digital printing, including ICC profiles, monitor calibration, and more!
This class is for anyone that has set up their printer and understands some of the basic concept of printing, but is having issues producing consistent results, or wants to go further in understanding how to achieve the best printing results! We love printing, and we want to share that love of printing with you! You do not need to own a printer, but it helps. We recommend Canon or Epson.
While the time is limited, we invite you to bring one or two potential images with you (on a memory card or thumb drive) that may be used in the class for demonstration. RAW files are recommended.
For more basic techniques in printing, our Intro to Digital Printing course is recommended.
