Designed for the ladies who are interested in trying out street photography and long exposure techniques. The day is suitable for beginners through to advanced. This day is about the ‘art’ of street photography and being comfortable creating great images with your camera.

As well as learning great new street photography techniques and creative approaches, you will discover how to produce stylish and distinctive images which reflect your style.

We start the day with coffee before heading out to see what we find; looking for great subject matter in the people at work or play, the shops and on the streets.

On this photography adventure we head to Bohemian Karangahape Road, explore Auckland’s oldest cemetery and go behind the scenes of interesting locations, plus many more exciting photographic opportunities.

What you will learn:
- Develop a street photographer’s ‘eye’ and learn how to spot a photo opportunity in an everyday street scene
- Appreciate the aesthetics of street photography
- Understand the importance of developing your own style as a street photographer and how to conceive and undertake ‘projects’
- Understand the components of a great street image
- Practice different types of street photography and discover your preferred style of shooting
- Conquer your fear of photographing strangers
- Become invisible and shoot your environment quietly and unobtrusively
- Understand some of the key legal and ethical aspects of street photography
- Learn how to react positively if people are questioning, challenging or offended.

Itinerary:
- We meet at 10.00 am for coffee, introductions, and tuition session before setting off onto the streets
- Our itinerary will take us to some great street photography ‘hot spots’ and behind the scene photographic opportunities where we will put into practice some of the principles learned; expect to walk over 6,000 steps on this adventure
- Throughout the day you will receive a significant amount of one-to-one tuition and coaching
- Lunch at Little Turkish Cafe, with a group discussion before hitting the streets again for the second structured photographic session
