Composition & Visual Storytelling: Monthly Photography Workshop

Composition & Visual Storytelling: Monthly Photography Workshop

Overview

Learn to create compelling photographs through composition, light, and visual storytelling in this hands-on workshop for all skill levels.

Every photograph tells a story. The question is: What story are you telling?

Join photographer and educator NiEtta Reynolds for an evening of creativity as we explore composition, visual storytelling, and the art of making photographs with intention.

Photography isn't about having the most expensive camera—it's about learning to see. During this workshop, we'll slow down, look differently, and discover how composition, light, and perspective can transform an ordinary moment into a meaningful photograph.

Whether you're picking up a camera for the first time or you've been photographing for years, this workshop is designed to strengthen your creative eye while giving you practical techniques you can use every time you pick up your camera.

During the Workshop We'll Explore

  • The foundations of strong composition
  • Framing, balance, perspective, and leading lines
  • How to use light and shadow to create depth and mood
  • How to create photographs that communicate ideas and emotion
  • Visual storytelling techniques used in documentary and fine art photography
  • An introduction to the cyanotype photographic process

Your Registration Includes

  • A guided photography workshop
  • Hands-on photography exercises
  • Group discussion and image reviews
  • A Cyanotype Printing experience

  • A photography workbook filled with exercises, notes, and creative prompts to continue your journey.
  • Group discussion and image critiques
  • A welcoming environment where participants can learn, create, and grow together

Bring your camera, smartphone, or film camera, a notebook if you'd like, and most importantly, your curiosity.

This workshop is for anyone who wants to become more intentional about the photographs they create while connecting with others who share a love for visual storytelling.

Presented by 2406 Photography Studio in partnership with Chapman Collective Gallery and The Help Show.
