Photography Workshop

Kurt gave me a Canon SLR for my very early birthday and Christmas present. I LOVE it!!! Right before I ordered it my friend Anna, which is also Kurt's cousins wife, emailed me and asked if I wanted to go to a photography workshop with her down in St. George. We had a blast and learned a lot. So here are some of my pictures from the workshop.

Our host, and pro photographer was Kevin Hulett. He was awesome to answer all of our stupid questions and to take the time with everyone that needed technical help with their cameras.

This was my last photo in JPEG. Right after I shot this he told us that if we were shooting in JPEG we needed to STOP NOW! So we all did.
First picture in RAW.
He taught us how to spot meter and how to hold our AE lock when we were shooting in aperture priority. (I cheated and shot in manual) He was cool with it though.

This is Cassidy. A cute girl that was also in the class that had cool orange shoes.

One fun thing about the class is that Kevin hired a model for us to shoot. So we walked a little ways to this art labyrinth place.
This was our model Cassy.

And her mom Christy. I think we had more fun photographing everybody else!





This my good friend Anna, who I went with. I'm so glad she asked me to come!



We seriously had so much fun. Everybody was nice and easy to talk to. Kevin was a great teacher and really put together a good class.

Well, I'm jumping on the photography bandwagon...FINALLY! So look out for more photos coming from moi!

I hope you're ready to be used and abused. Ok, not really, but I do plan to call you whenever I need new pictures :)

Glad you know what he was talking about, because I have no idea. Why was the model not clothed properly? Sorry, pet peeve. She's pretty and your high quality pics prove it.
