Join Hunt’s Photo Education’s Emily Hojnowski as we dive into adding a world of creative techniques to your photography! Our Alternative/Creative classes are about getting you to take pictures and think about about your photography from a different perspective! We will give an overview on a specific topic in an online class session, then give you time to go into the field by yourself (or with someone else, if you choose) to complete an assignment based on that topic. We will reconvene a few weeks later for an online image review to discuss elements of your images.

In this month’s session, we’ll work with photographing objects in front of the lens. In photography, we often say not to put anything in front of your lens (except a very high quality filter!) because it can distort your image. But what if the purpose is creative?

In this class, we will discuss both DIY options with household materials as well as using specialty photo tools. We’ll also cover technical and visual aesthetics, including lighting, where to place your objects, and how to create ethereal and unique effects in camera! This class will be a lot of fun with loads of creative possibilities!

Then, you’ll put your new knowledge and inspiration into action by creating new images for an image review!

Join us, do something fun, and get creative!
