Composing and Analyzing Images

Composing and Analyzing Images
2

• The objective of this course is to teach the
  guidelines of composition to new photographers.
  Although many established photographers tend to
  think that there is no such things as correct
  composition, you will learn why these guidelines
  exist and can then choose if you will abide by
  them or not.

3

• After you learn about composition, your eyes will
  start to notice the interesting forms that are
  surrounding you. Once you have taken notice, all
  you have to do is appropriately position yourself
  to catch it in your viewfinder.

4

• We will discuss where the theories of composition
  derive from to better understand their relevance
  in making an interesting photo. 

5
This workshop will teach you

• - The theories of the rule of thirds, filling
  the frame, perspective, balance, leading lines,
  symmetry, patterns, background, depth, and
  cropping
• - The history of the theory of composition
• - Where to place your subject to create more
  interesting photos

• "I would like to thank you for a very enjoyable
  Workshop on Composition in Brussels with Emily
  Smith. Emily's methodology was spot on.

15

• She struck the right balance between theory,
  practical advice and tips and getting out there
  and having a go all offered under a relaxed and
  encouraging atmosphere. It was great to acquire
  so much knowledge in such a short time and I can
  fully recommend this workshop."

• "I had the chance to follow a composition
  workshop with Emily Smith on December 15 2012 and
  it was really impressing. It is so amazing to get
  information from a professional photographer with
  so much knowledge about composition and coulour
  combination.

• Ms. Smith had an answer to all the questions and
  the communication flow is absolutely great. I'd
  really recommend this workshop to any
  photographer, it will make you see things
  differently in terms of composition and framing."
