Fall Light Photographic Workshop: Three Places In New England

Three Saturdays, Oct 11, 12-4 pmOct. 18, 2:30-6:30 pm & Oct. 25, 6:30-10:30 am with review sessions on three Fridays, 6-8:30 pm at 56 Brattle St, Cambridge, Oct 17, 24 & 31

Adobe Lightroom Complete Intensive
An in-depth exploration of this powerful, relatively new, relatively easy to learn software. 
Four Wednesdays, 5:30 - 7:30 pm. Begins Oct. 8

Although I enjoy taking photographs on my own, Skip Schiel's classes give structure and direction, which adds another dimension to the experience. He also does these wonderful awareness exercises that help me look at things differently. It's an experience I take into other areas of my life. (Sy Friedland, Fall Light 2013)

I have owned a Lightroom tutorial video for 3 years—but the class was orders of magnitude more useful. (Adobe Lightroom Essentials, 2014)

Skip gave us ideas to think about while we were shooting. Shooting objects from different perspectives instead of just blasting away. One of the best things was that Skip was out there shooting with us. We could see after what he was looking at and what he was thinking. I have never had an instructor do that. (Winter Light, 2012)

Skip challenged us, gave thoughtful feedback and facilitated great discussions. The format of the class offered a mix of feedback, learning new techniques, seeing the work of other artists, and field trips to practice what we learned. The class flew by and I would have enjoyed a couple more sessions. (student in Night & Low Light Photography, summer 2011)
