DESCRIPTION:
Many Leica photographers want to shoot in the street. It is part and parcel to the brand's DNA. But many of us do not know how to start. This workshop is designed for those who know their camera but are new to composition techniques or to street photography and want to begin the process of understanding what makes a good image great. To do this you need to learn to see.
Join Leica professional photographer and Akademie instructor, Lauren Welles, as she guides you through the process of seeing. You will gain an understanding of how to capture impactful images and craft them into a creative visual narrative.
TOPICS COVERED:
- Point of view
- Composition
- Seeing the light
- Image Selection
- Sequencing
- Presenting
WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS WORKSHOP:
Anyone interested in learning what it takes to create impactful images, as well as being able to identify images that are stronger in a sequence than when they stand alone.
