The Art of Seeing: Building a Photographer's Eye workshop

Online Photography Workshop Series
Photography is more than knowing how to use a camera. Great photos come from learning to see the world differently. In this four-session online workshop, I will guide you through creative exercises and visual challenges designed to strengthen how you see as a photographer. This workshop is about slowing down, paying attention and building the skills to make stronger and more thoughtful images.

This is not a technical class about camera settings. It is about the art of observation and the creative process of making photographs with meaning and intention. We will explore how to see light, how to simplify a scene and how to build compelling images that tell a story. The techniques you learn will help you create better photographs no matter what subjects you like to photograph.

Each session you will receive a creative assignment designed to challenge how you see the world around you. We will meet live on Zoom where I will share examples from my own photography, discuss the weekly topic and offer feedback on your images.

This workshop is about building long-term habits that will help you see more creatively every day. It is perfect for photographers of all levels who want to move beyond snapshots and create photographs with depth, emotion and impact.
