Thursday July 9th, 7-8:15pm • Online!
Recommended prerequisite:
A Digital Photo Basics will help you better understand more techniques
Instructor: Emily Hojnowski
Class Level: Beyond Basic
Below the course description (but before registration) will be a short explanation on how the class will run.
Pets are loving, dedicated, and unique souls that make us smile after our long days at work, encourage us to get up on cold winter mornings, and stay embedded in our minds throughout our lives. Because of this, very few things melt the heart like a great photo of a pet, and photographing these loving companions can be a challenging endeavor.
Join dog owner Emily Hojnowski as she covers the best practices for taking better photographs of pets that will help you capture them at rest or in action.
This class will discuss both techniques on how to work with your camera as well as how to work with your dog. Among other things, we will discuss elements of:
•Composition
•Exposure for the best brightness level of your subject
•Focusing techniques in order to get your subject sharp
•How to read animal behavior
•How to appropriately use positive reinforcement training with your model

Layout of the class
The class will begin promptly at the time listed. The majority of the class–roughly 1 hour– will be a presentation on the topic, followed by a short Q&A. During the class, you are welcome to type in questions in the Question box on the left hand side of the screen. We will do our best to answer those questions, but if not, feel free to ask them at the end.
