Architecture Photography

Architecture Photography

Sunday 29 December
Bethesda Ave - 1pm - 2 Hours
Noah Gomes
Architectural photography can be a great way of exploring and documenting a city, whether it's your home or on holiday. Its about capturing not only the design and accurate representation of a building, but to have the shots be aesthetically pleasing to the viewer's eye. An architectural photographer makes pictures, not takes pictures.

In this session, we will be covering how to better understand Architecture photography and we'll be looking at ways to take some impressive shots and the camera settings to use.

Abstract Photography

Abstract Photography

Sunday 23 February
Glenallan Ave - 1pm - 2 Hours

Abstract photography involves capturing a subject in a way that renders it either partially or completely unrecognizable, emphasizing instead on the interplay of shapes, colors, and form.

In this workshop, we will explore the art of creating striking and thought-provoking images through the use of abstraction.

Our experienced instructor will guide you through the process of understanding and applying the principles of abstract photography, including composition, color, and texture. We will cover topics such as finding inspiration in everyday objects, experimenting with different angles and perspectives.

    Andrew was knowledgable and flexible, but we were not shooting at a great time of day or in a prime motion blur location. He offered clear instructions with hands-on assistance, and he demonstrated in addition to observing. Very good combo. Nice small group with interesting participants.

    I prefer using natural/existing light, as challenging as it may be, because when I get it right, it is that much more gratifying. I named this photograph ?One a Day? for two reasons. The first reason comes from the adage ?an apple a day keeps the doctor away.? The second reason speaks to the fact that this was a photo I took as part of a one per day for 30 days photo challenge. I wanted to try a technique I had not tried before, so I assigned myself the challenge of using a single, natural l

    _"Your Move"- I was strolling around Boston's Chinatown and really enjoying the atmosphere. I came across a park where many people were playing card games, chess, and checkers. I photographed several interesting characters and noticed a duo that caught my attention. The gentleman on the right had made a move and was waiting for his friend to make his next move. This scene caught my eye because of the intense energy they shared. The gentleman on the left had a confident look after making his move

    This summer was my first time visiting the Wharf since it's revamp, and I was just about to leave when I turned around and saw the lady on the swing. I didn't realize until after I took the shot that someone was taking a picture of her.
