Hands & Things - Resident Workshop

Learn to make expressive photographs using people’s hands and decorative items in this hands-on workshop.

This fun and relaxed workshop will get you thinking about finer details either as the focus of a photo or as part of a larger image. Good hand position and well-placed items can give a real extra kick to bring your photos to the next level. 

The group will set a still life together, and then use their hands to make expressive images with the items. 

Please bring with you a decorative item like a vase, flowers, figurine, rock, shells, or anything you like that can easily be held or placed in a still life. Items will also be provided. You are welcome to bring your own camera.
