Online: Multi-Session Series- Speedlights 101 and Beyond!
2021-01-13 19:00 - 20:30, 2021-01-06 19:00 - 20:30 (America/New_York)
Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a new Multi-Session Series session. 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!
Speedlights 101 and Beyond!
This class is all about two things: Learning how to use the basics of your flash on the camera and how (and why) to take the flash off the camera.
Join Hunt’s Photo Educator Paul Nelson as we discuss how to take pictures using a speedlight, and make them look great, no matter what the situation. We will discuss photographing people, but also photographing product and flashes work. We’ll talk all about the basics, including modes, settings, and more!
Whether you own a flash and have no idea how to use it, you want to take great photos at functions and family events that are in low light, or you just want to learn how to add a flash into your repertoire, this course is for you!
In week one, we will look at the basic camera and flash settings when using the flash on the camera, including light positioning. In week two, we will get a bit more creative by adding in diffusion and reflectors. We will also work to refine flash positioning and camera settings to maximize efficiency. In week three, we will demonstrate taking the flash off-camera and show some of the benefits of doing that. In week four, we will tie together the whole process, including how to properly edit photos.
Each week we will have a general presentation and discussion about a topic and will present an assignment. You can submit for the assignment or just watch our weekly critiques of others–it’s up to you! We will also supplement the class with additional instructional videos.
You don’t need to know the inner workings of your flash to take this class! Photographers of all levels should apply, even those at a basic level, as we will cascade the learning process. You should have a speedlight, aka a flash that is detachable from your camera. Flash triggers can be helpful. A reflector may also be helpful. Note: This is not a class about the on-board flash on your camera. In general, we never recommend using the on-board flash (unless you absolutely have to).
Photographers should have an understanding of their camera and general exposure before taking this class.

Layout of the class
The class will begin promptly at the time listed. 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!

We will do our best to answer those questions, but if not, feel free to ask them at the end.
“You Are Being Recorded” (And Other Note Related Items)
We will be recording this class! The video will be available for download about 24-hours after the class for all attendees, so don’t worry about taking unending notes. We will send this link attendees to download and rewatch at any time. In addition to this, we will generally send out a PDF of the presentation (when applicable) and handouts on the topic. If handouts and PDFs are included, we will send it out with the link for the video.

Online: Multi-Session Series- Editing in Adobe Lightroom Classic

Editing in Adobe Lightroom
This is a great opportunity to build up your editing skills in Lightroom!
Adobe Lightroom is the choice program for professionals and amateurs, with ever-growing capabilities and options. However, there are many levels to understanding in the program. What do we do to make basic changes? Once we learn those changes, how can we “step it up” and figure out what to we’re supposed to do? How do we make images pop? And finally, how do we put it all together and making finishing touches to our images.
Join Hunt’s Photo Education for this three-week course that helps answer many of these questions. What’s most important about this course is that we will give weekly editing assignments, and we will review those edits at the start of the following week. Often, Lightroom users struggle with the inability to determine what changes are “good” or “correct”. While those terms are subjective, we will help you along in the editing process to see how to make determinations along the way.
In week one, we’ll talk about file types and adjustment ranges using Basic Development controls. More than anything, we will be emphasizing global changes and understanding what can be done with an image in Lightroom. In week two, we’ll dive into Color, Curves, Contrast & Clarity & Texture. These changes will help make your images pop. Finally, in week three, we’ll discuss advanced editing, including Sharpening, HDR, Pano stitching and more.
Each week, we will give an assignment and students will upload their edited photos prior to the next class. We will, by and large, be working with your images in the class.
This class is strongly recommended for anyone either looking to just get started with editing, or to fine-tune your editing skills!
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. Make sure to save this information. We will also send a reminder email about 24 hours prior to the class time with that same information.

Online: Image Review/Critique- Holiday Still Life and Food Photography
2020-12-30 19:00 - 21:00
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 image for review or critique of a still life or food photography image from the holidays! This image review is in connection with our Holiday Still Life and Food Photography Virtual class earlier in the month, but it is not a necessity to take that class to submit an image for this class! All we ask is for you to consider the holiday theme and submit with the idea of “Still Life” or “Food” in the holidays.
During the review and critique, we will discuss numerous topics, such as image composition, exposure, focus, and all the settings associated with the image. Is the food appetizing or not? (Is it supposed to be?) Are color and exposure correct? We will figure all of this out during the class! You are welcome to edit the image you submit or leave it unedited.
If you are editing exporting from Lightroom or Capture One, we ask that you export the image as a DNG, or save the RAW file with a XMP sidecar file so that we can reedit the image, if need be. (If you’re unsure what a DNG file is, watch this short video about exporting as DNG. And if you cannot save the file in either formats and choose to submit an edited photo, please submit an edited and unedited version so we can reedit, if need be.)
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!
Join us for this exciting opportunity to share your photographic work with the community!
Regarding uploading of images
For this critique, we ask that you export a DNG from Lightroom/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! 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
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. Make sure to save this information. We will also send a reminder email about 24 hours prior to the class time with that same information.

Hunt's Photo Walk: Olde Sturbridge Village ft. Christmas by Candlelight
2020-12-27 15:00 - 20:00, 2020-12-18 14:00 - 20:00
Walk Description
Located an hour west of Boston, Sturbridge Village is a proud replication of an 18th-century New England town. Sturbridge Village is a living history museum that features many authentic period buildings and homes to explore and enjoy. The village is also inhabited by re-enactors who provide colorful insight to life in New England during the 18th century. Sturbridge Village is a wonderful destination for a multitude of photographic opportunities as well as a glimpse into a bygone era.
For the holiday season, Olde Sturbridge Village will be featuring their annual Christmas by Candlelight. During this time, the village is decorated and the people of Sturbridge recreate many of winter traditions, not just from the holiday season. This is a unique and different look to Olde Sturbridge Village, excellent for both those who have and have not been previously.
Olde Sturbridge Village is perhaps one of the best places to have both a Photo Walk and a class. There’s a little bit of everything at this living history museum, from macro and closeup with fine details to architecture, from portraits to landscapes. We will photograph both indoors and outdoors, in regular light as well as very low light. We will discuss how to work with subjects to create a story, and also work on settings to fine-tune focus and exposure! This Photo Walk is one of the best opportunities to build your photographic knowledge, no matter what level. This walk is equally as beneficial as a first walk or a twentieth walk, as the area has so much to offer! Join us for a great experience!
During the era of COVID, all actors will be wearing masks.
Please note: The cost of your ticket INCLUDES the ticket entrance to Sturbridge Village. If you need to cancel, please also note that we cannot refund the cost of the ticket, which is $22.

Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a fun virtual food and still-life class–and maybe an image review, too!

There will also be an optional image review and critique later in the month to discuss any subsequent images you may take after the class. Students will be asked to submit 2-3 photos, which we will discuss as a group, covering the above topics.
We are very excited for this unique opportunity. While we can’t always be connected in person, we hope this workshop gives all our attendees something to work towards during this holiday season!!

Online: Hunt's Virtual Holiday Macro Photography Workshop
2020-12-08 19:00 - 21:00
Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a very unique virtual workshop–once in a COVID lifetime experience. Every year, Hunt’s Photo Education has a special Holiday Macro & Tabletop workshop. However, due to COVID-19 restrictions, we are unable to do this workshop in person. And so, this year, we have decided to take our workshop virtual!
In our Holiday Macro & Tabletop VIRTUAL 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??
We will begin this virtual workshop with a live presentation & demo. This isn’t going to be your average webinar! We’re going to have a live presentation taking you through the whole process: What props to use in your images, how to properly set up macro images, where to place items in the foreground and background, how to light the subject, and other tips and tricks to watch along the way. You’ll also be able to ask any questions you may have.
After the presentation, you will have about 10 days to photograph a macro masterpiece on your own! During this time, you will also have the ability to edit your image, as well as reach out to us if you are having any issues. We will collect your images in advance of our Image Review, at which point we will see how everyone did. As the cherry on top, we will also go through the printing process and print a 5×7″ folded card in that critique. (We will mail that card out to you after the class.) At the end of this workshop, our goal is to have each photographer end up with a beautiful print.
We are very excited for this unique opportunity. While we can’t always be connected in person, we hope this workshop gives all our attendees something to work towards during this holiday season!!
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.

Layout of the class
The class will begin promptly at the time listed. The majority of the class–roughly 1 hour– will be a presentation on the topic, followed by a short Q&A. During the class, you are welcome to type in questions in the Chat box if you have specific questions as they are asked. We will do our best to answer those questions, but if not, feel free to ask them at the end.

Walk Description
Join Hunt’s Photo Education on a photo workshop involving historic Beacon Hill in the evening. During the walk, we will discuss many of the aspects of photographing in low light and at night, including exposure, focusing, composition, and more. Photographers of all levels are welcome!
For generations, Beacon Hill has been one of Boston’s most appealing neighborhoods. Quaint historic streets, beautiful Brownstones, and unique detail help make Beacon Hill a rewarding location for photographers of every skill level. We are entering Beacon Hill and Boston as decorations and lights begin to come out for the holidays. When we begin our walk, we will have the opportunity to photograph the area during the late-afternoon light and into the night, which will allow us to capture these spectacular details.
After the walk, attendees will be asked to submit 2-3 images from the walk for our image review/critique, happening the next week. We will discuss each attendee’s images and look at all the elements of photography discussed on the walk. Please note that this session will be recorded in case you cannot attend.
