Event Overview

Are you looking for a unique gift for mom on Mother's Day? In this class I'll be teaching myriad tips and tricks for photographing children of all ages.

Perfect for any parent or grandparent who likes to take photos, this class will be full of techniques that will help you get better photographs of the kids in your life, both posed and candid. We'll briefly cover photographing infants and older children, but will spend most of our time talking about how to get photos of younger children (roughly ages 1-5) who are unable to take direction or be bribed to pose.

You'll walk away from this class with an entirely new toolkit for children's photographing. You'll learn the best camera settings, get recommendations on the best lenses to use, and most importantly, we'll talk about different games and misdirections we can use in order to convince younger kids to pose and smile at the camera.

*In order to get the most out of this class, it is recommended that students have an understanding of how to use their SLR camera outside of AUTO settings. If you're not confident operating your camera off of AUTO, you can sign up for my SLR 101 class here: http://bit.ly/1TqJPJE

What to Bring

Pen and paper to take notes. SLR camera is optional but recommended. iPhone photography is applicable to this class but smartphone photographers will miss out on portions about settings & lenses.

Minimum age

All ages welcome

Hi everyone and thank you for checking out my classes. I'm a professional photographer and videographer based in Chicago, IL although I'm often in Ann Arbor, MI. I've been a professional photographer for nearly 8 years and my work has taken me all over the world. Before then I was a teacher and that's why I'm here on Dabble. I love teaching, meeting new people, and learning even more in the process. I specialize in portraiture and sports photography but have a broad range of interests. Aside from camera work, I'm also an fleunt in Photoshop, Lightroom, Premiere, After Effects, and Illustrator.
