Introduction to Smartphone/Tablet Photography 
⇒ Monday, August 8  •  9:00 AM – 11:00 AM 

Smartphones or tablets are with you all the time without the complex controls of DSLR/Mirrorless cameras. In this class, you will begin with an overview of iPhone, Google, and Android devices, their functions, and supportive camera app features. You will review the major elements of lighting, and composition and cover the use of nearly all your devices’ functions, including in-device editing, posting, sharing, and archiving. After the deep dive into the inner working of the latest Smartphone technology, you will spend the next hour or so applying the lessons learned by creating images in and around Pleasant Valley. Make sure to bring your tablet or smartphone!

Thad will demystify and discuss many of the key components of what makes and contributes to you creating a better photograph! Explore ISO, shutter speed, aperture, depth of field, composition, exposure pre-sets, filters, white balance, tricks of the trade, and much more. Afterward, you will spend time on the trails of Pleasant Valley applying the lessons learned. Bring your DSLR or your Mirrorless camera and your questions!
