Do you have a budding photographer that you want to encourage? Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a 6-session photography program aimed at strengthening their interest, improving their photography, and getting them truly excited about being the artist, the creator, and the family photographer!

Over the course of six sessions, we will cover a wide range of topics, from composition & perspective to depth of field & movement. In every session we’ll have a brief introduction to a topic followed by a fun practical exercise. Our goal is to get your photographers taking pictures as much as possible! At the end of each session, we’ll give an assignment for the following week, and at the start of the next session, we’ll look back on the images to see what we liked about them.

Our goal in this program is to have a lot of fun and not bog students down with too much technical stuff. However, we will also scaffold instruction, so if an attendee wants to know more about the technical aspects, they still can! Please note: This course is geared towards students aged 11-16 years old. Our age requirement is general and a certain maturity level is helpful.  Younger students with interest and a level of responsibility are welcome to attend.

Students will be required to have some kind of camera. We generally recommend a DSLR or mirrorless camera, but if you’re unsure, feel free to contact us at classes@huntsphoto.com

This will be a fun program with experienced instruction. It is encouraged to take his class multiple times to build up different skill levels as time goes on.
