Not So Candid Camera: People Photography - Kodaroamers’ Camera Club - Thursday November 14, 2024 - 7:00-9:00p
Capturing natural-looking images of people can be more challenging than you might think. We’ve all experienced that magical moment when someone has the perfect expression or a heartwarming, loving scene unfolds.
The urge to capture these moments is strong, and we reach for our cameras, only to be disappointed when we review the images. They don’t reflect what we saw. Pamela will explore the reasons behind this and give you some practical tips to help you take more natural-looking photos.

Reviews from my 2024 Creativity in Photography class.....
"This class was a perfect course for stepping into the world of photography with a DSLR camera. It covered foundational, beginner photography techniques and customized instruction for our small group of learners. The hands-on approach was perfect!"
