Click Away 2022

The city moves pretty quickly. Take some time to slow things down and connect with your surroundings in this Chicago Cityscape class. Kristen will discuss the elements and subjects that grab your eye and the process of deciding how to capture and tell the story of those elements. As a seasoned landscape photographer, Kristen knows the importance of shooting everything from the sweeping wide views, down to the intimate close ups, and she'll share with you how to approach cityscapes the same way. Come prepared with your favorite wide angle lens (and a longer lens if desired), and polarizer or ND filters if you have them. Tripods are optional.
