Workshop: Basic Indoor Lighting 101
We’re excited to kick off the 2017 workshop series on January 28th with one that has garnered particular interest, regarding indoor lighting.
Workshop: Lightroom 101 – Image Management and Organization
In this CoPA Workshop, we will take a deep dive into Lightroom’s Library module and learn how to use best practices of Digital Asset Management to organize your entire image library.
Workshop: Lightroom 102 – Crafting Beautiful Images
In addition to Lightroom providing extensive Image Management and Organization features, it also serves as your digital darkroom for processing and refining your images. Using the Develop Module, you’re able to enhance your images far beyond what your camera can achieve alone.
Workshop: Advanced Lightroom

In Lightroom Advanced, we’ll cover the topics such as fixing disjointed catalogs, tethered shooting, and printing at home, to make sure you’re using Lightroom to it’s full advantage.
Workshop: Basic Outdoor Lighting
Using natural light outdoors. Identify basic problems and offering simple solutions.
Workshop: Advanced Outdoor Lighting Using Strobes
In this CoPA Workshop, we’ll learn how to effectively use strobe lights outdoors. We’ll explore how strobe lights can expand the possibilities in a given location, and offer more flexibility over using natural light only.
Workshop: Project Based Work
The Project Based Workshop will be taught by professional photographers Jon Horvath and Kevin Miyazaki. Both photographers will be present and talk about their own photography projects, as well as other photographers’ projects.
Workshop: Exhibiting and Selling Your Work
A crucial part of our development as artists is the business side of photography. This workshop is perfect whether you’re just starting out, already showing in galleries, exhibiting or hoping to expose your work to a wider audience.
Workshop: Website Building for Photographers
In this CoPA Workshop we will take a deep dive into best practices for building a website for photographers, focusing on SmugMug as the web platform. Concepts will apply across any development platform.
