Do you use your phone as a tool with your creative process?

Would you like to maximize possibilities with your smart phone?


Who should attend this course?


This is a great course for anyone who uses their phone to make photographs.

Whether you want to use your phone as part of your daily art practice, keep track of the steps in your work process, visual journaling, documenting life etc … this class will show you the best parts of phone imaging!


Course Description


Smart phones provide an easy and accessible form of image making, yet you still need to  think about what and how you shoot and then enhance the photos to make them outstanding. It is all about your vision and learning to see that through a lens and the application of photo editing tools/apps.

If you have a smart phone and a few add on apps for editing, you will be amazed at what is possible to achieve!

Using your smart phone is perfect for your daily practice, documenting your work in stages, making reference images and much more.

If you already have the Adobe Creative Suite, you can use parts of that (Lightroom Mobile) on your phone as well as a computer or iPad to edit and view images.

I will be working with an iPhone 12 Pro, but you can use whatever phone you have and still take advantage of this course.
