Northwestern State University’s Office of Electronic and Continuing Education will present two basic photography classes Saturday, Sept. 10 in Room 225 of Kyser Hall.

Basic photography will be held from 1 – 3 p.m. and will teach the skills and techniques of taking great photographs with your DSLR camera. The class will cover lighting and shooting techniques including photo composition and camera functions. This course is designed with DSLR cameras in mind, but could help those wanting to break into the field of more dynamic cameras and images. Participants will need a camera. A Nikon DSLR is preferred.

Basic photography II is from 4 – 6 p.m. This course will cover what to do once the photo has been taken. The instructor will demonstrate basic editing techniques using Photoshop that will enhance your photos. Participants can bring specific images with them for some in-class editing. Those in the class will need a camera with computer cable supplied with camera or SD card reader.

The fee is $30 per class or $50 for both. For more information, e-mail bedgoodm@nsula.edu, visit ece.nsula.edu/non-credit/ or call (800) 376-2422 or (318) 357-6355.
