Street photography often tends to be ironic and can be distanced from its subject matter, and often concentrates on a single hu …

This is a group for photographers wanted to learn the basics in photography, lighting, posing, understanding all camera settings, f/stop, iso, shutter speeds, stobe lighting, outdoor lighting... ect. All skills levels are welcome, and I started this group to help those photographers with no formal training to take their images to the next level.

The primary focus of the group is to help each other create artistic representations of the human form through photography. We will conduct photography workshops for all level of photographers with an artistic and creative vision.
