Studio Photography: Playing with Shadows
In this hands-on photography workshop, you’ll explore the creative possibilities of artificial light through still-life scenes inspired by nature. Working with simple subjects such as fruits, vegetables, and other organic forms, you’ll experiment with light, shadow, position, and composition to see how each choice changes the image.
Please bring your own camera. As every camera has its own settings and configuration, you’ll work directly with your own equipment throughout the class.
