There will be a heavy focus on understanding lighting conditions and the operations of the camera system. The elements of exposure will be examined and practiced and the student will gain a functional grasp of what is required to work in different situations both indoor and outdoor (weather permitting). Recommendations for best practices will be offered and each day will build upon the previous with stimulating hands-on exercises that are designed to challenge the student to improve their craft. The last day will be the student's opportunity to work more independently to put what they've learned to the test.
This class is ideal for: law enforcement officers and civilians that are new to photography or crime scene and evidence documentation; those that have been
