Going Back To School!

Accordian Camera

I’m so excited I can hardly wait – I’m going back to school! Just for ten weeks. But they will be the best ten weeks of class, I’m sure. For awhile I’ve longed to study with a Portland photographer who teaches a series of classes in my community. Up until now it’s not worked out. But I’ve signed up, paid my tuition and classes begin TONIGHT!! Two nights a week I will listen and learn and experience the world of photography in new ways – ways I’ve not yet known or understood. I’ll learn the basics of digital photography tonight to better understand how it all works. Then we will move on to advanced digital photography skills, continue with classes focusing on composition and advanced lighting. More classes may follow in the fall sessions. I think you may be the first to benefit from what I’m learning. I’m sure my photography will improve and a new world will open up for me. This will either expand my horizons or freeze my brain. I’m thinking it will be the former!

With a grateful heart,

~Adrienne~

Will you be taking a laptop to class later? Have fun!! Yes, I plan on having a selection of my birds, it will really be fun for you to see them in person.

  7. Oh, Adrienne, that is so exciting. I can't wait to see your pictures. They are already beautiful. We really do have a lot of interests in common. I would like to take a class in photography myself. But I don't have a fancy camera yet.
