The art of noticing
This October we are excited to launch our 4 part online series, The Art of Noticing.
This workshop will walk participants through what it means to cultivate awareness, building trust with yourself and others, how to frame your story as well as understanding shadow and light.
The course will be taught through zoom webinar weekly along with an online facebook group for image reviews, concept ideas and reference materials. It is our goal to build a group of likeminded artists, whether you are using a phone or a camera. This course has been designed to challenge the way you think about seeing the world around you.
During this workshop we will be using examples from Adobe Lightroom Classic as well as Lightroom for mobile photography. Additional workshops and editing retreats will be offered for those who are looking for a deeper dive into editing with Lightroom on their computer or with a phone and tablet.

Cultivating Awareness ~ What does it mean to notice the world around you? Understanding our own story and how we connect to those around us holds a strong influence over our work. This week we'll look at how to connect with others and ourselves.

Framing Your Story ~ As photographers we have an incredible privilege to frame the story. What we include and what we leave out of our image holds both impact and perspective. This week we'll talk about cropping for impact, narrative building and influence of colour.

Understanding Shadows ~ This evening we'll touch on shadows and highlights. Where to find balance in your composition and the impact of black and white photography in storytelling. Shadow work can be revealed in how we frame the subject through visual narrative and is not limited exclusively to the use of light.

Chasing Light ~ In our final week we'll discuss what it means to chase light. This might look like a sunrise, or the Christmas lights that have popped up in your favourite neighbourhood. Light can also represent what is good in the world. Maybe it's a smile from a man you see every weekend at your favourite coffee shop or a stranger walking down the street. Visual storytelling with our camera can get heavy as the worlds issues come into focus and it can also bring you incredible joy where you least expect it.
