A city that was once dominant in the textile industry, Lowell’s population boomed during much of the 19th century, peaking in the early 20th century. Lowell, nicknamed “Mill City”, still retains much of its’ early 20th century look (and charm), with many old mills being converted to apartments, artist spaces, shops and more. On this walk, we will photograph around many of the mill areas and along the beautiful Merrimack River with the many bridges and cobblestone walkways. Photographers of all skill levels are welcome.

Online: Personal Vision Series- Pieces of Things
2021-07-20 19:00 - 20:00, 2021-07-27 19:00 - 21:00
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 Pieces of Things. We will have an instructional online presentation on March 11th from 7-8pm and will reconvene for our Image Review on March 18th from 7-9pm. 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!

Online: Beyond the Basics- Low Light and Night Photography
2021-07-20 19:00 - 20:30
Recommended prerequisite:
Basic understanding of Aperture, Shutter, ISO & What Exposure is
Beginner Photography understanding
Instructor: Emily Hojnowski
Class Level: Beyond Basic
Want to get this class after it’s been run?– We have an online store where you can purchase all our previously run classes here: https://ebay.huntsphoto.com/buy-previous-courses/
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
After learning “the basics” of digital photography, become more comfortable in the world of digital photography by taking the next step.
Night Photography requires patience and creative vision. Despite the limitations of darkness there is still great detail and color to be captured through your lenses. Low light photography is equally challenging, but requires a completely different set of techniques. This course specifically covers these two very different yet aesthetically beautiful types of photography. While our Beginner class scratches the surface of these functions, this Beyond the Basics class covers the following topics in Low-Light and Night Photography:
• Exposure, Focusing, Settings, Subject Matter, and Gear
• RAW vs. Jpeg shooting
• Aperture Priority vs. Manual
• Live View and Manual Focus
Understanding the full-functionality of your camera 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 change your camera’s settings in those situations. It is recommended as a follow-up to our Beginner Photography course.

Online: Printed Vision Series- Back in Black- Printing Nightscapes
2021-07-21 19:00 - 21:00
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: Printing Nightscapes
Nightscapes can be some of the most beautiful images when printed. They possess not only deep, rich blacks that shine through on the paper, but also high levels of contrast and can also present an incredible level of rich color. There’s a lot to be proud of when hanging a Nightscape on our wall!
In this session, we will delve into printing nightscapes, including different paper options, what details to look for when choosing an image, and elements of image processing. Specifically, we’ll look at details such image sharpening, noise reduction, grain, exposure, and color management. Our instructional online presentation will be held on July 7th from 7-8pm and we will reconvene for our Printed Image Review on July 21st from 7-8:30pm. You will have that time period in between to photograph and/or edit your images. In the end, you will receive a 12×18″ print on fine art paper. (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!)
The Printed Vision classes are an excellent opportunity to learn more about not only about printing, but also the processing of images at a much more focused level. Recommended for everyone: Beginners to Advanced Photographers. Come join us for a lot of fun!

After the class, your print can either be mailed to you or picked up at one of our Hunt’s Photo store locations.

After the workshop, attendees will have the opportunity to review their images and make some edits. We will then reconvene online with an image review where we will discuss many of the factors that we discussed on the walk portion of the workshop. This workshop is an excellent opportunity to hone in on and develop your photography skills.
The Stevens-Coolidge Place is a unique estate in North Andover that benefits from a beautiful indoor space, but is also quite famous for beautifully maintained grounds that include a rose garden, greenhouse, and more.

Hunt's Photo Nifty Fifty Workshop: Chinatown to Downtown Crossing
2021-07-23 19:00 - 22:00, 2021-07-26 19:00 - 20:30

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: Emily Hojnowski
Class Size: Maximum 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 from Chinatown to Downtown Crossing. Chinatown and Downtown Crossing (and areas in between) are two easily recognizable areas in downtown Boston. Boston’s Chinatown is quite small in size, but has many unique sites and is the last remaining historic Chinese area in New England. Downtown Crossing is home to street vendors and a myriad number of shopping establishments with bright lights. Sandwiched in between is the Theater District of Boston. All three provide excellent opportunities to photograph the unique architecture and people of the area, all using that lovely 50mm glass!
*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.

Class Description
Learning about photography can be a real challenge. There are so many pieces to the puzzle of photography, some of which use confusing terminology. And while we also offer other wonderful Beginner Photography classes to get you started, nothing is truly the same as hands-on in-the-field! It’s important to fully understand the “why” and “how” of your camera settings.
In this outdoor, hands-on class, you’ll learn all about the basics of photography. 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! We’ll discuss changing depth-of-field (controlling what’s in focus in the background), stopping or blurring the action in your scene, and many other basic picture-taking techniques. This will be an excellent opportunity to learn about your camera in a fun and safe environment! Join us to strengthen your photographic knowledge!
In this session of Beginner Photography in the Field…
…we will be going to the Saugus Iron Works in Saugus. The Saugus Iron Works is the site of where European iron workers began their trade in the new colony. On the site today are a large water wheel, mills, a forge, wood buildings, and the Saugus River! This is another excellent area to learn about photography, with the variety of subject matter, interesting textures, and wonderful angles and compositions that can lead to terrific photographs. Bring your camera and your enthusiasm to learn all about photography in a hands-on, real-life environment!

Recommended prerequisite: Working knowledge of your camera We also recommend having some of the knowledge from our Beginner Photography class
All Skill Levels Welcome
Instructor: Don Toothaker
Class Size: Maximum 8 attendees

Walk Description
Join instructor Don Toothaker for a special photo walk in Haverhill, MA where we will concentrate on being able to see and photograph in Black & White.

This will be followed the next night by an image review/critique featuring images taken on the photo walk by each attendee. Photographers of all skill levels are welcome!
Haverhill, Massachusetts was once known as the “Queen Slipper City” for its high percentage of shoes produced in the town. The town retains the look of a manufacturing town, and this look translates extremely well to the look of Black & White photography. On this walk, we will move about the downtown area and along the Merrimack River at dusk and into the night. Our task will be to focus our energies into how to effectively see and create images in Black & White.

Online: Into the Eye of the Sun: HDR for Natural Looking Images with Lewis Kemper
2021-07-28 18:00 - 20:00
Wednesday July 28th, 6-8pm EST • Online!
Special Guest Instructor: Lewis Kemper

Want to get this class after it’s been run?– We have an online store where you can purchase all our previously run classes here: https://ebay.huntsphoto.com/buy-previous-courses/
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Class description
Ever since the beginning of photography, photographers have been battling dynamic range. There is no photographic media that can capture the full tonal range that our eyes can see. Thanks to the digital world we can now create full tonal images through HDR. HDR imagery is the process of capturing multiple images at various exposures (bracketing) and then using software to combine these images to create a High Dynamic Range (HDR) image. Join Lewis Kemper to learn how to use HDR to create realistic dynamic full tonal range images.
About Lewis: LEWIS KEMPER is widely recognized as a photographer, writer, and instructor, lecturing throughout the United States. He currently is a Contributing Editor to Outdoor Photographer. His books include “Ancient Ancestors of the Southwest”, published by Graphic Arts Center Publishing; “Capturing the Light”, which won the People’s Choice Awards in Fine Art in the 2009 Photography.Book.Now competition; and “Photographing Yosemite Digital Field Guide”, which was voted in the top 20 field guides. Lewis’ training videos have been used by thousands of photographers, helping them with their photographic and post-processing skills. Lewis is currently a “Tamron Ambassador.” You can visit his website at www.lewiskemper.com

Recommended prerequisite:
Basic understanding of Aperture, Shutter, ISO & What Exposure is
Beginner Photography understanding
Instructor: Emily Hojnowski
Class Size: Limited to 15 attendees
Class Level: Beyond Basic
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.

Join Hunt’s Photo Education for our new Multi-Session Series. In our Multi-Session Series, we will meet over the course of a number of weeks, generally at the same time each week. During that time, we will discuss a specific element of a topic and end the session by giving a photographic assignment. That assignment will be due for completion before the next class meeting, and we will review those images at the start of the next session. If for some reason you cannot attend one of the sessions, don’t worry! They will be recorded and you will be able to watch them at your leisure!
Our Multi-Session Series is designed to “keep the conversation going” by engaging with our attendees in a more personal way. In each of these classes, we will have 10-15 attendees and provide direct feedback on images. We encourage photographers of all skill levels to consider these classes, as they will build upon your experience and provide an excellent chance to work on your imagery!
Landscape Photography
Landscape photography is one of the most easily accessible genres of photography and is enjoyed by many. What does it take to create a landscape image that stands out? Join Hunt’s Photo Education as we go beyond “F8 and be there” and dive deep into the technical, artistic, and practical aspects of landscape photography.
In week one, we’ll cover what it takes to plan and the settings necessary for your best shots. We’ll also talk about the gear all landscape photographers should have in their bags and what to do when the weather just won’t cooperate. In week two, we’ll edit landscape images from start to finish using Adobe Lightroom Classic. By week three, we’ll discuss composition, dynamic range, depth of field, and focus. We’ll also discuss when to shoot in color and when to shoot in black and white. In our last week, we’ll cover shooting and editing HDR images and panorama images in Adobe Lightroom Classic. We’ll also cover shooting landscapes at night as well as astrolandscapes. Each week, Emily will give an assignment to hone your new skills and each student will receive individualized critiques. Emily is also available to answer any questions along the way.
Join us for this fun and unique multi-session series that will help you develop your skills with landscapes!

Hunt's Photo Workshop & Image Review: Port of Galilee & Point Judith Lighthouse, RI
2021-07-31 17:00 - 21:00
Featuring coastal scenes, sunset and low light photography followed by an online image review
Recommended prerequisite: Working knowledge of your camera We also recommend having some of the knowledge from our Beginner Photography class
All Skill Levels Welcome
Instructor: Don Toothaker
Class Size: Maximum 8 attendees
Walk Description
Join Hunt’s Photo Education on a late-afternoon/evening walk of the Port of Galilee & Point Judith Lighthouse, followed by an online image review. On the walk, we will discuss Exposure, Subject Development, Image Composition, HDR, Black & White Photography and more. Photographers of all skill levels are encouraged to attend.
The Port of Galilee is a small fishing village located in Narragansett, Rhode Island, but this small village holds the largest fishing fleet in the entire state! Because of this, the Port of Galilee is a fascinating, weathered and textured area for photography. We will begin the walk photographing in and around the port, then move toward the Point Judith Lighthouse for sunset.
After the workshop, attendees will have the opportunity to review their images and make some edits. We will then reconvene online with an image review where we will discuss many of the factors that we discussed on the walk portion of the workshop. This workshop is an excellent opportunity to hone in on and develop your photography skills.
