Using Lenses Creatively @ Longwood Gardens
Different from my normal workshops, I will be leading this workshop for Longwood Gardens. Registration is through Longwood Gardens, not me personally. There will be two online components as well as on location shooting in the gardens in the early hours of the morning!
Here are the details from the Longwood website:
“What lens should I use?” may be one of the first questions you consider when preparing for a photography shoot.
Join expert photographer Valerie Hoffman in learning all about lenses—from their unique qualities to their creative opportunities—and get your lens questions answered. Lens choice is probably the most important decision you can make regarding image quality and artistic style—and when choosing your gear, you can and should base your decision on desired (and more creative) results. Learn how to customize your photography experience and build your artist toolkit!
