About the event

We all want to create images that delight the eye and captivate imagination. In this workshop we will learn how!

Join me for a lively, open workshop that gives you the insight and tools to master composition. In just two hours, learn to use ten of the most effective composition techniques to make your photographs more expressive, and even prize-winning.

Through clear examples, lively discussion, and plenty of visual inspiration from the greats, you’ll learn how to:

  • Handle the tools of framing, perspective, and flow
  • Recognize and use visual structure effectively
  • Balance elements for stronger images
  • Free yourself from rules and formulae
  • Apply your instinct for aesthetics with flexibly and creativity
  • Grow confident with your own personal preferences and personality style
  • Produce images that stand out and win competitions

We’ll break down each “top ten” idea into practical steps you can use right away—whether you shoot wildlife, portraits, sports, street, or travel photography.
