Creating Landscape Photographs with Impact
What makes for a better photo, one that draws you into the subject and invites you to look deeper? What elements encourage the viewer to look into the photo and take the time to explore?
It all starts with learning to see. The act of slowing down and imagining the finished photo before you even press the shutter. We’ll consider the size and placement of the subject, using physical paths to guide the viewer in and using subliminal physical hurdles to encourage them to linger and look deeper. We’ll see how the aspect ratio of the final print changes how the viewer enter, and travels through an image, and we’ll do a couple of quick image edits to put these ideas to use.
Together, let’s take a close look at the power of light, color, and most importantly, composition, to create images with impact, beauty, and staying power.

From Flat to Fantastic: The Art of Black & White Editing
Black and white images aren’t just color photos without color - they’re their own language. In this class, we’ll begin by learning how to recognize which images have the structure, light, and subject clarity to make powerful black and white photographs. You’ll gain insight into what types of scenes lend themselves to monochrome and why.
From there, we’ll explore how to *see* in black and white by focusing on tone, texture, shape, and light. Using tools in Lightroom Classic, *Photoshop, and Silver Efex Pro, you’ll learn how to transform bland images into bold, dramatic monochrome interpretations. We'll explore workflows that emphasize contrast control, tonal precision, and the emotional weight that great black and white images can carry.
