Artistic Floral Photography

Join our speaker Jackie Kramer as she takes you on a journey through her digital garden where she will share a variety of techniques that she uses to bring out the character in floral subjects. She will show examples and discuss how to reflect the personality of a flower through a variety of techniques, such as selective focus, shoot-throughs, abstracts, multiples, textures and more. Hear her rationale as it applies to decisions in the field pertaining to selection of the subject, background, approach, composition, lighting, exposure, and depth of field and leave inspired to pick up your camera and follow your own creative voice.
