Dust off ye olde camera, it’s your time to learn how to use it! This two hour workshop will focus on the fundamentals of photography - the relationships of ISO, Aperture, and Shutter Speed and how these tools “paint with light.”

All skill levels are welcome. These concepts apply to film and digital photography. “The best camera is the camera you have,” while this may be true in life, access to a camera will manual settings will be able to more easily apply these concepts to their imagery. 

* Don’t have a camera but interested anyway? Renee Cornue Studio has two loaner camera bodies available to workshop participants who reserve this equipment in advance. Please email contact@reneecornue.com to reserve.
