Your best camera is the one you have with you—and your iPhone is far more powerful than you might think. In this two-day workshop, we’ll explore the full potential of your iPhone camera and learn how to move beyond simple snapshots to create compelling, expressive images. You’ll discover hidden camera features, practical composition techniques, and how to use light to your advantage. We’ll head outdoors to photograph the natural beauty of The Clearing, putting new skills into practice right away. Back in the classroom, we’ll dive into the iPhone’s built-in editing tools to quickly and effectively enhance your images. You’ll be introduced to creative third-party apps that allow for greater flexibility and artistic expression—opening exciting new possibilities for your photography. By the end of the workshop, you’ll understand not only how to take better photos, but how to transform them into finished images you’re proud to print, share, or display. Suitable for all skill levels.
