DCSPC member, Chris Suspect, will be working with Glen Echo Photoworks this summer on an 8-week intensive street photography class that is designed to take your photography to the next level. I will review the basics of street photography, what street photography is and is not, and the history of street photography, including the work of the masters.
You will learn how one “reads” a street photography image and how to identify the elements of what makes a street photograph successful. I will discuss visual cues to keep in the back of your mind when shooting, from juxtapositions, tricks of perspective, multiple points of interest, capturing raw emotion, layering, obscuring elements, geometric principles, shadow play, and harnessing the subliminal power of semiotics.
After the first 2-3 weeks, the course will quickly move beyond the single image and will focus on developing a vision, building a cohesive portfolio, and setting the foundation for a larger body of work.
This workshop is for all levels but a basic understanding of how to operate your camera is expected.
Classes will be held weekly on Zoom starting Wednesday, June 2nd from 7 - 9 pm and will end on July 28th with a group slide show highlighting the students work.
Price: $899
Limited to 12 students.
