Emotional Photography
Tom Query
Wednesdays, 7:00-8:30 PM Janaury 14- March 4.
This is an 8-Week course. The cost is $195, prepaid.
Beyond the snapshot, a photographer seeks to capture the feelings or emotions about a subject. Photography has become a new medium of expression in art and in psychotherapy. Photographs can capture and express more than just recording a moment.
If you will look back over your personal and family photographs you will see a rich history of emotional states with a lot of data there you may never have seen.
Awareness and expression of our emotional states can be very therapeutic for anyone. Through photographs we can make statements, make art, write ‘poetry’ and ‘music’ and express a full range of our life and passions. It can also help heal from core wounds.
This class will be an introduction to using photography as a way to heal, change, and/or grow. You will also gain new skills on how to use your own photographic equipment.
Photographic techniques we will explore:
- Eliminate distracting elements
- Rule of Thirds
- Lines
- Filling in Frame / Headroom
- Camera Shots
- Camera Angles
This is an eight week class that will enhance your photographic equipment skills, cover basic knowledge of light, and composition, and delve into basic printmaking. Class is open to any skill level – from beginner to professional.
Needed:
Camera – film or digital. You can use any camera - from an instamatic to professional equipment. You will need to have the resources to be able to capture images (negatives or digital files) and print/project a large volume of them in order to explore different techniques.
