StreetLife: The Art of Street Photography

Ages:
14+
Cost:
$100 per participant (includes all sessions)
  • About This Program

    We'll channel the spirit of masters like Henri Cartier-Bresson, who pioneered the art of freezing "decisive moments" in time, to teach you to see and capture the extraordinary in everyday life. This four-week course, designed for all skill levels, will immerse you in the technical skills and creative eye needed for powerful street photography, from understanding composition and light to ethically capturing candid images. Join us for a blend of historical context and hands-on shooting, where the vibrant streets of Uptown Charlotte become your personal canvas. This workshop is a collaboration between Creating Exposure Through the Arts and MODA, and we can't wait to help you tell the city's story through your lens.

    Please note: All equipment and software is provided. If you have your own equipment, feel free to bring it.
