This class will help develop photographic techniques and compositions for architectural photography. Develop a good eye for taking architectural photographs – both in exterior and interior settings. This is a great workshop for those who are in a real estate business who want to step up their photography into their work.

• The basic properties of using a camera, including aperture, shutter speed, ISO, as well as image settings.
• How to create the composition of a building, including angle, location of shots, and arranging objects within a scene.
• Looking and using lighting conditions, both from the sun and interior lights.
• Post-production photoshop techniques, including levels, cropping, lens correction, and cloning.
