When and Where:

Martin schoeller in my opinion is perhaps one the best portrait photographer. I think of him as a "straight shooter"!

Martin Schoeller, who began his career in Germany, arrived in the U.S. in 1993 and began producing portraits of people he met on the street. The work gained recognition for its strong visual impact. Since 1999, Schoeller?s work appears frequently as contributing photographer for The New Yorker. Martin?s work also appears in Rolling Stone, Esquire, GQ , Entertainment Weekly, Vogue, W, Newsweek, Interview, and Nylon, among others.

We drove to the Cape , me and Mr. McVinney.And it was truly Beautiful. I also checked the cottage in Eastham that I will be renting for the overnight and it is fine for 5 people.

The Cape in the winter time is totally different than any other seasons especially the usual summer time.It feels that it is finally yours and not the tourists. The air is different ,the colors are different ,the dunes are different and the lighting is soft and pleasant. As the sun was starting to set , we decided to look for few beaches. We found one off Route 6A as we drove toward Eastham. It was odd to see the Cape's famous dunes dusted with snow. We were both in awe and left the car and just enjoyed the novelty of strolling along the snow-covered sand and the waves that had turned into ice, listening to the sounds of the sea and allowing the brisk February air to awaken our senses.It was truly magical.

This is a basic all you need to know workshop that would teach you from the basics of exposure, manipulation of depth of field, shutter speed, f-stops and focal range to the ultimate goal of creating compelling photographs with your camera. Choices of subject matter, the framing of an image, composition, light and shadows and appropriate treatment of portraits, landscapes, or action photo are some of the subject that will be covered in this workshop. You learn that cameras are much simpler to use and you will become very comfortable by understanding manual modes of exposure, natural light and difficult lighting situations.

For our second hour I will be covering Depth of Field which plays a big role in the outcome of an image,exposure,lenses,light and accessories will be covered.

This is 4 day workshop and each session will be 2.5 hours. You spend the first two sessions indoors (classroom) and the next two sessions in the field.

what will be covered:the basic of photography,learning your ISO,comprehending Shutter speed,understanding light and adjusting your lens opening (aperture).

Who should attend: This workshop is designed for those just getting started and also for those who still have many questions unanswered in photography.
