Digital Photography

camera workshop
The Digital Photography workshop is July 9-13, 2012.

Both beginning and advanced photographers will find any of these one-week workshops to their liking. While emphasis is on photographic technique, students also study journalistic principles and digital editing fundamentals, including scanning and computer editing (using Photoshop).

We recommend photographers bring a digital camera with manual override. If one is not available, a point and shoot-type digital camera will be fine. For publication quality, cameras should be at least three megapixels.
