Photographic Tips & Apps

This introductory workshop will provide a brief overview of your native camera, basic photographic composition tips and an introduction to Snapseed, one of the most-commonly-used editing apps on your iPhone or iPad. If time permits, demonstrations of other post processing apps will be offered. The goal of this workshop is to take you beyond the native camera to show you how to make creative images that reflect how you see the world. You don’t need to be an experienced photographer to participate. This class is geared for those who have never used post-processing apps.
Please bring your iPhone and/or iPad to the workshop fully charged and your charger, just in case. Please upgrade to the latest operating system. Most importantly, before arriving to the class, please upload Snapseed from the App Store. There is no extra cost for this app.  And lastly, have at least 3-5 images that you’ve taken with your iPhone that you’d like to work on.
There are many photo-post-processing apps available in the App Store and, if there is time, we will look at 1 or 2 other apps. You’ll also be given a list of recommended apps available to purchase. Should you walk away from this workshop “hooked” on this art form, you may be wanting more and more apps to experiment with! The first tip I offer you is to learn one app really well before going on to another one.

Come with the free Snapseed app downloaded to your device.
