Field Sessions

 

 

 
 

Field sessions are all about getting out and taking pictures. Putting your skills into practice and enjoying the process of creating new images. Corey will be sharing photo tips, demonstrating shooting techniques and offering ideas for how to capture your best shots. He'll recommend camera settings (aperture, shutter speed, white balance, ISO), as well as help you with your creative vision so you can capture the image you imagine. A small group size allows Corey to work with everyone individually - answering questions and providing feedback as you photograph. See you in the field!

Critiques Included! After you've had a chance to edit and process your images, you can receive a critique with constructive feedback. Attendees may submit ten photos taken during the field session for a personal photo video critique. In the critique video you'll see your photos displayed on Corey's monitor as he discusses their strengths and weaknesses. As he talks about an image he'll also make adjustments to it, showing you how it can be improved by modifying tone, color and contrast, applying selective adjustments, and other techniques. The critiques are included in the field session cost.

Lucketts Antiques

 

 

The antiques stores in Lucketts are a great place to pick up something for your home - but the unique collection of items makes it a goldmine for photographers too. We'll photograph at two stores, right across the street from each other. They each have their own style, offering distinctly different types of photo ops. From quirky and creative to unusual and hip, it's all got a character of its own. This is the place to explore the details. Picking out abstract compositions. Playing with color, texture, line and shape as you explore the possibilities. Great subjects for a Lensbaby too!
