Creative projects and personal styles are the foundation of the CHS award-winning photography program. Photo 1 is designed with hands on lessons providing the real “tricks of the trade” to capture perfectly exposed, well arranged, exciting and memorable images. Students will learn how to create breathtaking images, capture movement, portray human portraits with splendid emotion, perfectly compose pictures, and take studio-quality shots with your own fancy camera or smartphone, and more! You will also learn artistic elements, color theory, how to work in manual mode on a camera, and all about the different camera features & buttons. Then you will learn to correctly convert, manage, and edit your images using Photoshop, editing software and apps to expressions your images as fine art. Students will top off their fabulous experience by framing and submitting their fine art to contests and art shows and making gifts. Whether at school, in your home, or on vacation you’ll know how to take pictures like a pro! An app filter or more expensive camera won’t guarantee your pictures are satisfying and impressive… only the right skills can do that. And you find this all in Photo 1!  Fees: $20.
