Dr. Jay Connor takes stunning photographs of the Boston area and of events that happen here, including the Head of the Charles, Boston Marathon, politicians’ visits, and the Fourth of July Celebration. He has photographed well known people including Tom Brady, David Patraeus, Richard Gere, Scott Brown, Tiger Woods, Halle Berry, the Obama family, the Dalai Lama, and a host of others. His photographs regularly appear in the Boston Globe.
The first session is a seminar covering best practices for taking professional quality photographs, including light conditions, camera settings, composition, and, probably most important, being in the right place at the right time. The 45 minute seminar will be followed by a workshop during which participants will set up and take photographs with Dr. Connor’s guidance.
Between sessions, participants will be practicing what they learned.
Photographs taken should be Emailed to jayconnorphotography@gmail.com by Monday afternoon.
During the second session, in discussion format, Dr. Connor will critique the photographs taken by the session participants and some photographs of his own.
