Photography Exploration
Do you love taking pictures? Ever wish your photographs were better? Then this workshop is for you! We’ll take photographs every day at locations all around the UW campus, from out on the stadium field to inside the life sciences greenhouses, from inside the power plant to the top of the UW Tower. We’ll experiment with photo styling and spend time sharing photographs for feedback. We’ll meet guest speakers like a National Geographic Canadian biologist, a portrait photographer and Photoshop guru, and the Seahawks photographer. We’ll close with a finale, presenting our results to family and guests. Come ready to photograph, experiment, explore and have fun! Bring any camera and see where photography can take you.
