” Freedom of Expression”

A Workshop in Photography as Art

Expression of an Arbutus tree

Art is the language of expression.

Through illustrated talks on art and photography, in-the-field art projects, and collaborative evaluation sessions, you will discover new ways to interpret your most familiar realities into new, unique, and never-before-seen expressions, using in-camera techniques. You will journey toward becoming a true photographic artist.

Journey beyond representational image making. By blending technical and creative aspects of photography, you will celebrate new ways to communicate visually.
With personalized assistance, you will take your photography beyond the obvious, and to a level you never knew existed or thought possible.
The ‘in-camera’ techniques will free you to visualize and develop your unique expression.

The art of expression should be exploratory. On this 2-Day workshop we will do this, and you will start your journey toward photographic artistry.

As with the images below, you can begin to interpret your world with a new freedom of expression using in-camera techniques.

Landscape. Representational
