This class is an introduction to the basic photographic principles of ISO, Shutterspeed, and Aperture and how these elements work together to create four types of images; show action, stop action, full depth of field, and limited depth of field. We cover other topics such as Metering, White Balance, Auto Focus, Contrast Ratios, and limitations of digital and film cameras. If you are new to Digital Photography or have had your camera for years and are still shooting on Automatic Mode, this is the class for you. We help simplify your camera so that you can take better images and enjoy the process. The small class setting makes learning comfortable and interactive. 		7Photo I

6:00 pm - 8:00 pmPhotoshop ITime: 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
This class is an introduction to Adobe Photoshop. We cover the various tools in PS; what they do and when you would use them. Our focus is to help you learn how to edit your photos using five tools or less. We also cover monitor calibration, printer profiles, color correction, media storage, and a basic workflow. Editing programs are the second step in digital photography. Just like film must be processed, so do digital images. Think of these editing programs as your “digital darkroom”. On the second night students will work on their own images with one on one assistance from our instructors. 		21Photoshop I
