A Naples Based Photographer Offers a Great Teen Summer Activity
The Event Lady thinks this is a great idea!
A local Naples business is offering a great way for teens
to learn and have an interesting and safe summer activity.
I invite my all my quince girl readers to consider this photography
workshop.
Fun stuff! Who knows we could have one famous photographer come out of this photography workshop, right here
in SW Florida.

Bring your camera. A good camera is nice, but any digital camera will do. It's the photographer,
not the camera, that creates a great photograph!
We'll work with models. The first hour will be instruction, then
two students will spend an hour with their model, the last hour will be critique and discussion.
This class is
already filling up so we are considering offering the same workshops on Tuesdays from 5 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Is there any
interest? Let me know!
