Portland Rose Festival

On Location - The Rose Festival - Newspace Center for Photography Photo Workshop

Just taught a class at Newspace Center for Photography on how to create compelling images at Portland's Rose Festival. Students learned how to hone their own personal style while shooting the Rose Parade, City Fair, and the Milk Carton Boat Races. So sorry you missed it.  But....I'm teaching another class this summer at Newspace, Finding Your Documentary Passion. d2f85634d06811e2a73f22000a9e28ad_7 a495e176d13011e2aeed22000a9f13be_7 RoseFest_edit-28 RoseFest_edit-36 RoseFest_edit-24 RoseFest_edit-19 RoseFest_edit-15 RoseFest_edit-11 RoseFest_edit-4 749b158ccfd611e2af2c22000a9e510c_7

On Location: The Rose Festival - A Newspace class

The Newspace Center for Photography Spring 2013 Class guide is out, and they've asked me to teach one of their fantastic photo field trips. We'll spend the weekend at the Portland Rose Festival, which means floats, beauty queens, parades, and carnival rides galore.  Plus all participants will get media photo passes to get some behind-the-scenes action. Some of the topics include: Learning the building blocks of documentary work. How to approach strangers. (Ahhhh!) How to create environmental portraits. Seeing things from a new perspective

Plus I will be doing one-on-one sessions over our shooting time, so everyone gets a little love. Friday – Sunday, June 7 – 9. June 7: 6 – 9pm | June 8 & 9: 9 – 5pm Cost is $315. Sign up while we still have space!
