In this one-day workshop, set against the charming backdrop of historic Downtown Charleston, South Carolina, we invite you to unlock the secrets of Long Exposure Photography. Commencing with two hours of comprehensive classroom instruction at the Hyatt Place on Montague Ave, we'll cover the essentials, from mastering your camera settings to understanding the artistic vision behind each long exposure shot. As the morning unfolds, we'll transition seamlessly into the heart of Charleston's historic district for hands-on field practice, where you'll have the opportunity to apply your newfound knowledge amidst the picturesque surroundings.
Delve into the technical aspects of capturing the flow of time, harnessing the magic of extended shutter speeds to create dreamlike images of moving water, dynamic skies, and urban landscapes. By the end of the day, you'll leave with not only a set of stunning long exposure photographs but also a heightened appreciation for the artistry and technical finesse that define this captivating photographic style.
If you do not own any ND filters, do not worry, I have several that students can borrow during the workshop.
