Graduate Photographers

Welcome to Graduate Photographers.

As our name implies, we are looking for people who would like to improve their photography skills. We would like to draw on your talents just as much as you want ours. We are going to do meetups that take you to locations you may never have heard of. Before every session we will discuss the important aspects of every shoot. After the outing we will sit together and discuss what we have learned. If you are a beginner we will get you past the dilemmas of what lens and what camera settings.  Strobists and sports photographers are especially encouraged to join us. We will have sessions where you learn to use professional lighting setups. Portraits will become easy for you, how to pose is something you will learn so you can direct your models. Please be prepared that we might do portraits of each other.  Model shoots and outings will be arranged to give you experiences and opportunities you by yourself may never gain.

Dedication to the hobby and this group is necessary to join.

So go ahead and join our fraternity.
