MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY

WORKSHOP

Introduction to Macro Photography

Interested in learning more about macro photography and how your aperture impacts your image? Want to know how the aperture and the lens works together. Learn how to get shallow Depth-of-Field (good Bokeh) or great Depth-of-Field.

Come join us at Yorkdale Adult Learning Centre to practice photographing flowers and other objects, learning about great or shallow Depth-of-Field and macro photography.

The techniques that you will learn for photographing these subjects will transfer over to photographing portraits. (Not sure how? come to this workshop to learn how easy photography can be.)
