Intro to Photography

  • Holder Dane Gallery and Art Studios 701 South Main Street Grapevine, TX, 76051 United States (map)

THIS FULL-DAY INTRODUCTORY PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP GUIDES STUDENTS TO PROGRESS BEYOND TAKING SNAPSHOTS TO CREATING PHOTOGRAPHS.

We begin by exploring your camera’s capabilities and learn how to manually adjust for shutter speed, aperture and film speed. This workshop will also help you improve your understanding of composition, light, depth-of-field, and perspective.

The six-hour session includes time for practicing the concepts and techniques discussed. Students need to bring a camera and the camera manual. A digital SLR or compact camera with manual controls is essential for this class.

THE PHOTOGRAPHER

Bruce Rosenstiel was drawn to photography by his fascination with wildlife and world cultures. He enjoys photographing all manner of flora and fauna to reveal the extraordinary, and often unseen, diversity and beauty of nature. Likewise, Bruce’s cultural portraits seek to make the foreign accessible by diffusing barriers of difference, creating a visual language of images that focuses on themes of universal human experience: work, play, worship, sorrow, joy.

Beginning in 2009, he has taught classes through the Southlake and Grapevine, TX Parks and Recreation departments. He currently teaches introductory and intermediate photography and Adobe Lightroom to adults of all ages. He is the founder and president of the BJNC Camera Club.

He and his wife, Sandy, have co-lead Culture and Photography Tours to Oaxaca, Mexico, Peru, and France. Bruce’s work has appeared in many publications and websites and has been selected for many juried exhibits.
