DESCRIPTION:  \nNatasha Calzatti will teach you how to make black and white images that are expressive and strong\, simulating the great masters. \nYou may know how to use Lightroom Classic or Photoshop features to create black-and-white images\, but many of these conversions aren’t very good.

There will also be a discussion about printing\, including proper print settings and which papers to use and when. \nTechnical Level: Intermediate\, basic beginner knowledge of Lightroom Classic or ACR Photoshop software is required. Accessing files on the OS system\, basic tone and contrast adjustments. \nWhat to bring: \n5-10 unprocessed/not adjusted images. It would be best if the images were shot in RAW format.

SUMMARY:Preparing for Your First (or next!) Big Wildlife Safari Trip- Pasadena
DESCRIPTION:For wildlife photographers\, going on a wildlife safari or an African photography tour\, get prepared with instructor Moses Sparks.\n\n\nFor a wildlife photographer\, going on a wildlife safari or African photography tour is an adventure that many of us dream about\, an opportunity to see and photograph exotic animals\, and capture those once-in-a-lifetime images and memories. \nFiguring out what gear you really need\, how to pack and travel with it\, and how to use it effectively in the field can be overwhelming and confusing. \nAfter all\, an African safari is very different from shooting in the humid rainforest of Costa Rica\, or working in the cold of a Yellowstone winter\, or dealing with the steaming jungles of Brazil. \nIn this class\, you will learn from a professional photographer who has traveled all over the world\, shooting wildlife and encountered the challenges we all face. \nMoses will talk about cameras and lenses\, of course\, but also how to get them to your destination safely\, what support gear is essential\, and all the tips and tricks you need to come home with amazing pictures. \nMoses will also touch on bags and packs\, tripods/monopods\, straps\, rain gear\, clothing\, insect protection\, and so much more. These are the little things that become major factors on location. \n** The classroom is located on the second floor of our store. Access to the classroom is available via stairs. There is no elevator to the second floor.** \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Moses Sparks: \nMoses has been a professional photographer based in Los Angeles for more than 30 years\, and my career arc is a little crazy. \nMoses started out as a fashion and portrait photographer\, with photo credits in Harper’s Bazaar\, Marie Claire\, Entertainment Weekly\, and Rolling Stone. He then expanded into the corporate market\, shooting annual reports\, advertising\, and executive portraits for a host of Fortune 500 companies. \nMoses then moved into photographing at major TV and motion picture studios – including NBC Universal\, Disney\, Warner Brothers\, Showtime\, Paramount\, and most recently\, Amazon Prime and Netflix. Those images have appeared regularly in trade publications like Variety\, The Hollywood Reporter\, and TV Guide. \nDuring the Covid shutdown\, Moses pivoted to doing nature and wildlife photography and began shooting projects for the National Park Service\, BBC\, and conservation groups around the world. He has been a featured photographer for Sony’s “Artisans of Imagery” podcast. \nMoses has been all around the world\, photographing some of the strangest and rarest animals to be found anywhere. Moses is currently preparing for several gallery shows. He has published his first book of wildlife photography and is currently working on a second. \n\n\n\nBy registering for this workshop\, you are agreeing to our Terms and Conditions.

SUMMARY:Street Photography Intensive with Todd Felderstein - Los Angeles
DESCRIPTION:In this Street Photography Intensive\, we will explore our everyday surroundings with a curious\, artistic eye and an eager camera.\n\n\nAs a photographer\, how do we see? What makes people\, places\, and things so fascinating while simultaneously so intimidating? How do we identify and then approach scenes and subjects without disturbing the story? \nWelcome to our Street Photography Intensive\, where\, after a brief technical review of photography and camera basics\, participating photographers will embark on the local streets with cameras in hand. Each outing will offer the opportunity for an in-depth classroom review by our peers while diving into the careers of those photography giants in this field. Our overall goal is to strengthen our photographic skills and refine our ability to “see” while furthering our prowess on the street. \nWe will wrap the day with a much stronger understanding of street photography and how best to capture the world around us in a still image that speaks volumes. \nLECTURE TOPICS WILL INCLUDE: \n\nHow do we anticipate an unfolding image without disturbing the narrative?\nHow to respect light and shadows?\nHow do we make peace with our surroundings?\nThe impact of color vs. black and white.\nWhat strengthens an image?\nHow to perfect your timing on the street to ultimately tell the story that you intended?\nHow to develop a “style.”\nAs adults\, what do we take for granted versus the magic that is often overlooked?\nReminders: Look up! Have patience! Bend your knees!\n\nWORKSHOP SCHEDULE: \n10:30 am-11:30 am Beginning Camera/Photography Refresher at Samy’s Camera Los Angeles \n12:00 pm-1:30 pm Street Photography Lecture Samy’s Camera Los Angeles \n1:30 pm-3:00 pm Street Photography Hands-On Shoot \n3:00 pm-4:00 pm Street Photography Review & Critique at Samy’s Camera Los Angeles \n**Attendees may shoot with either film or digital cameras. However\, for those shooting film cameras\, we ask that you also bring a digital camera and shoot some digital photos so that you may participate in the review portion of the workshop. \n**The optional 10:30 am Beginning Camera/Photography Refresher Session is great for those who want to brush up on their basic photography knowledge. \nInstructor Bio: \nWhether in photography or moving pictures\, photographer and filmmaker Todd Felderstein found his niche early on capturing people through visual storytelling.
