Composition in the Field - Photography Workshop

Photography Workshop lead by Professional Photographer
EachComposition in the Fieldclass begins with a talk with one of our experienced instructors, and then you and your fellow students take a stroll through one of a variety of photogenic locales (in any of the 20+ cities the DPA encapsulates). There is street photography, magnificent interiors, farmers markets, zoos, landscapes, and more, photos of which are included within. These photos are a mix of student and instructor images in many different venues and cities across the United States and Canada.
You will have fun in the three hour session, learn to shoot strategically, get more interesting photos of the event, and walk away with a foundation to improve your photographs in the future, whether you’re traveling, or at a birthday party and everywhere in between.

The Villages is not just a senior community that thousands of people call home; it’s also a photographer’s dream location for capturing vibrant and diverse portfolio-worthy images.
Your DPA instructor will guide you through a wide range of photo ops, from street portraits of shopkeepers preparing for the day’s business to capturing the essence of fashion enthusiasts strolling on the sidewalk and searching for new outfits. You can even snap photos of military veterans flying remote control planes (like the ones at the end of the slideshow)! There’s an art to capturing the stories of anonymous lives, and you’ll receive lessons on the easily acquired skill of engaging with interesting individuals to pose for your camera.
The community boasts a variety of architectural structures reminiscent of distant lands. You’ll learn different techniques for creating compositions from different angles and explore a range of composition strategies, including Leading Lines, the Rule of Thirds, Negative Space, and many others. These techniques will serve as the foundation for your future photo excursions, whether it’s a casual family gathering, a walk in the park, a blooming rose in your garden, friends playing pickleball, a professional sporting event, or a once-in-a-lifetime travel experience.
