Photography 101

9 a.m.–1 p.m. Meet at NAC ($45)  ◆
Every good photo begins with the right exposure. Even if you catch a great subject at the perfect moment with strong framing, everything is lost if you blow the exposure. If you only shoot in automatic mode, you’re accustomed to the camera taking care of all the settings. But, as adept as modern cameras have become, they aren’t perfect, and they’re not good at making artistic decisions. Elevating your picture-taking from good to great requires a general understanding of the three elements of exposure: aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. Understand the interplay between these three elements, and you’ll be able to anticipate great photographs, rather than wait for happy accidents. This is a combination of classroom and hands on both inside and outside.
