Nature Photography Meetup
Saturday 05 July
Provo Canyon - 10am - 2 Hours
Bryce Giesmann
Join this session for tips on how to use your camera settings to creatively capture nature in a visually interesting way. We will be looking at composition, focus, and colour.
Many professional offices and places of business have large prints gracing their wall space of things such as fields of flowers, a butterfly perched on a leaf, and a single dew drop on a rose petal. These beautiful images are all around us in nature. It just takes that special "eye" to not only see it but to capture it in a way that will turn that simple little piece of nature into a beautiful piece of art. We will learn how to use different angles, light and shadows, and settings to make subjects pop.

We'll also focus on collaborating with your subject to capture their personality and style, covering posing techniques and how to set your subject at ease. Technical skills such as accurate focusing and metering for skin tones will also be discussed.
Note: We encourage you to bring a friend or family member to be your model. Practicing with someone familiar will enhance your learning experience.

The most rewarding part of the class is learning how to approach interesting people and have them willingly pose for you.
We will also go over settings, focusing techniques and lens choices common to street photography to help us capture those random chance encounters.
