Creating Magical Photos in the Garden with Ginger Livingston

They say the early bird catches the worm, in this class you will harness the early morning light in the gardens to capture the bird, the worm, and so much more! In this class participants will gain a more complete understanding of how to use their equipment the environment, and learn some unusual techniques to create some magic in the garden. We will cover camera settings, do’s and don’ts, and using creative techniques and supplies to add that little extra spark of magic to your photos. Check out some of Ginger's work on Instagram @gingersnapsphotography.

For this class you need to have a working knowledge of how to use your DLSR camera. Ideally if you can shoot in Manual mode you will have the most success.

Thursday, April 14th
7:00am - 9:30am
$39 per person
Ages 16 and up. Ages 12-15 are admitted with a ticketed adult. 

Required Supplies:

• DLSR Camera
• Working battery
• Memory card
• One or two lenses for shooting.

A word about lenses: Ideally one would be a macro lens like a 100mm or 105mm, the other a zoom lens or prime lens with a maximum aperture between 1.4 to 7. The lower the number the wider the aperture. Again, this isn’t required but it will be easier to get a variety of shots with a lens that has a wider aperture such as 1.4- 2.8. Some of my favorite lenses to shoot flowers include 100mm, 35 Prime, 50 prime, 80 Prime, 24-70 Zoom
