Tuesday at the Market: A Digital Photography Workshop For Food Lovers
In this two-hour workshop, local photographer Nikki Gardner will teach you how to use your digital camera to get the most effective and stunning results for your needs. She will teach photography basics (light, composition, framing, and exposure) along with visual storytelling techniques. You’ll also practice capturing the vibrant food scene at the Tuesday Market in Northampton: the local farmers, their produce, and the market shoppers. Bring your manually adjustable digital camera, a notebook to jot down notes, and any questions you may have.
Date: June 18th
Time: 4 to 6 pm
Fee: $25.00 (per workshop, per person)
Instructor: Nikki Gardner
