PHOTOGRAPHERS REHAB

Soooo, you got a new camera and you only understand one function…AUTOMATIC. You’re really wondering what all those buttons do and F-Stop is just another “F” word as far as you are concerned. Right now you have all this photographic passion pent up inside and you feel stuck. Good news! We have taken our 30 successful years of experience in professional photography and have designed a three day COMPLETE workshop perfect for you. Mastering your camera is a very important first step towards shooting inspiring photos, instead of those “mediocre snapshots” that are littering the web. This workshop is not your typical dry “master of science/engineering” workshop. You will not only be taught the shooting side, but the darkroom as well…ie basics in digital darkroom. Our goal is to equip you with a complete understanding of what it takes to “make” great photos which is what you will learn when you take this workshop! This workshop is designed to advance your abilities in photography and a way to set your photographic passions free! Check out the dates and locations and get signed up!

THE POETRY OF PHOTOGRAPHY

When we shoot photos, we are communicating a message. Most people don't realize they are saying something. Truthfully, their photos look like "blah, blah blah" Every now and then, they communicate a beatiful message, but don't know how they did it. Speaking with photography is visual poetry! This short affordable workshop is designed to teach you how to see creatively, so you can shoot poetry whenever you need to. After this workshop, you will see photos before you shoot them!

BLACK & WHITE BASICS

Yes color is beautiful, but B&W is romantic! Anyone can shoot beautiful color photos, but it takes a special vision to see the black and white photo in a world full of color. This workshop will teach you what makes a great B&W photo and how to look for and see the photo in B&W before you shoot it. Plus you will learn how to use photoshop to properly turn your photo into a stunning B&W print. We will also explore the world of B&W infrared photography.

DIGITAL DARKROOM BASICS WITH BIBBLE

Shooting the photo is only half the job. The other half is what is called Post Production. We used to call it Darkroom Work. My favorite photo management soft ware is Bibble. This class will teach you how to keyword and caption your photos properly. You learn how to copyright your photos so they don't end up being used for some condom ad. You will also learn the important basic digital darkroom adjustments all photos need. Finally we will teach you the best way to archive and library your hundreds/thousands of images so that your childrens children will be able to find them. Get signed up now.

TESTIMONIALS:

Photographers Rehab is amazing. I learned more on the first day than all I had known before coming to this workshop.

-Camdon Littleton

I am no stranger to photography courses and education, having received an Associates of Arts in Photojournalism along with my Bachelor of Arts in Journalism as well as having completed a number of post graduate courses at Brooks Institute of Photography and other photo workshops... This course (C21 Photojournalism) was one of the most valuable--if not the most valuable--photographic experience I have ever encountered.

-Larry Jones

The Creative Location Lighting workshop (now called Masters of Light) was a lot of fun and very informative. More importantly, it gave me skills that I can instantly put to
use in future photo shoots. Kevin really knows how to teach his extensive knowledge of photography in a real world situation (not a classroom). He is passionate about his craft and really encourages those who want to pursue it. I highly recommend this or any workshop he teaches - you will learn a
lot and be motivated to excel in your work!

-Jim Lacy

Taking this class (Masters of Light) with Kevin was wonderful. I finally felt like someone was willing to remove the veil of secrecy from lighting and just show you how to do one thing and do it well in ...english. He never tried to make it seem like something only certain people could do. First he demonstrated the technique, and then we got some time to practice before we went out and found someone in the area to try the technique out on. Practical experience, and he was always there to help if we needed him.

Above all else though, he actually said that if we ever needed help with what we learned in the workshop we could just ask and he would help. No other instructor at a workshop has ever offered this, and I think it's because Kevin really loves photography, and he wants to share his knowledge and skills with others, and really help them.

I highly recommend taking a workshop with Kevin. You won't regret it. Take notes!
