The Pictorial Philosophy
Definition Of Pic·to·ri·al: graphic: evoking lifelike images within the mind; “pictorial poetry and prose”; “a lifelike portrait”; “a vivid description.
Contrary to popular belief in photography, relying heavily on editing software should not be the primary focus when seeking to develop a good understanding of the craft.
While using editing software is not inherently bad, beginners or photographers with little to no foundation may find themselves overly dependent on editing functions within the software, which can hinder their exploration of photography settings in real-world applications. This obstacle prevents photographers from developing the patience and keen eye required to capture truly exceptional photographs.
Furthermore, excessive reliance on editing software often leads to an overuse of settings, resulting in a digitally altered appearance that detracts from the emotional qualities that can be achieved through a balanced use of light and shadow.
Many photography courses include editing as part of their curriculum. However, it is crucial to question whether this approach truly allows beginners to grasp the essence of photography or if it merely serves as a process that detracts from the authentic photography experience.
In fact, modern digital cameras are equipped with advanced technology that enables the creation of remarkable pictures without the need for extensive editing. Unlike many other photography schools, our courses promote a holistic approach to learning photography, emphasizing the importance of capturing organic images without relying on editing software.
Taking extensive in-class sessions and note-taking alone will not suffice in mastering photography. To truly maximize the techniques learned in our courses and gain practical shooting experiences, participants must venture outside and witness how lighting conditions change, understand the characteristics of their cameras and lenses, and identify and rectify their own shortcomings.
While there is a significant learning curve between shooting alone and working alongside a professional photographer, it is essential to have an experienced mentor guide you through a photography course. By the end of our carefully structured courses, you will be amazed to find that photo editing is no longer a necessity on your photography to-do list.
To ensure a high-quality learning experience for all participants, our photography courses are conducted in small classes of five people or through one-on-one private sessions. This approach allows our photography mentors to provide personalized guidance while keeping the prices as reasonable as possible. Additionally, participants will enjoy flexibility in scheduling and rescheduling.
After years of conducting photography courses, Keith has meticulously designed our curriculum to provide beginners with little or no knowledge of a strong foundation in photography techniques. In a relatively short period, participants will be able to create impressive photographs that do not require any editing software.
Keith himself will personally guide you into the world of artistic photography, sharing his expertise and passion for the craft.
