Take creative control of your photographs by learning how to make your camera do what you want it to do. This great new workshop combines the best of both worlds: an informative class in the fundamentals of photography, with the ability to go into the field to use your newly-learned skills.
Join long-time Arizona Highways contributor and former picture editor, J. Peter Mortimer, Friday evening from 6-8pm for an instructional session where you'll learn about exposure, lens openings, shutter speed and how basic camera functions work. Then put those lessons to the test on Saturday, where you'll have the chance to photograph at the Wildlife World Zoo under his watchful eye. Ask questions. Experiment. You'll then head into a classroom session where Peter will critique the morning efforts of those using digital cameras. He'll discuss what's successful in the photographs and what elements need improvement, giving you even more tools to work with the next time you go out photographing.
After this one session, you'll see improvement in your pictures and your camera manual will start to make sense!

Policy & Guidelines

TIP: For some reason we always want to take pictures horizontally from eye level. Sometimes this works well. But more often than not, a low angle or a high angle shot both as a vertical and horizontal makes for a much more interesting picture. - J. Peter Mortimer
