RAAW Photography
July 4-6 | 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM
Explore pure imagination in this three-day photography workshop. Award winning photographer Sierra Rei Hart will guide you to create interesting compositions, perfect lighting and express story telling through the eye of your camera. After learning to take great photographs, you will then explore post-production editing to enhance your creations and bring your imagination to life.
Participants will be encouraged to submit up to five photos to the Take Your Shot Teen Photo Contest. This year’s theme is "Humans of Lambton." Winners will have their art professionally matted and featured in an exhibit at JNAAG in August.
