Photography

Learn to move out of your comfort zone and start exploring new subjects, new ways of seeing, experimenting with different creative techniques and working with light and exposure to create more artistic photographs. Assignments and hands-on field work are designed to stimulate your creativity; during critiques you learn from your success as well as those of your classmates.
