The Princeton Photography Club is fostering a community of photographers through new educational workshops in the fall.

Each of the workshops covers a specific aspect of photography. Out of the 14 workshops available only one is a returning class from last year, while the other 13 are all new.

“Over the past few months we have completely revamped our education program, which is our workshops. We are offering 13 new workshops and the one returning workshop is one I taught last year,” announced Dave Burwell, vice president of the Princeton Photography Club. “The workshops cover a wide range of topics that include, flower photography; infrared photography; photo book making; fine art printing; composition; and pinhole photography.”

Infrared photography is one of the topics available for a workshop that will teach people about infrared filter techniques, infrared and full spectrum camera conversions and different applications for infrared photography.

Another new workshop that is being offered is the fine art printing course. Fine art prints are often printed from digital files using quality inks and acid free fine art paper.

Burwell said Photoshop and Lightroom – two adobe softwares – have workshops, as well, this fall.

“Many people use those for editing, finalizing and perfecting their images. I actually teach the lightroom workshops for the club,” Burwell said. “Lightroom I taught last year for the first time with the photo club. The club members are very excited and those outside of it are as well.”

The topics for the new workshops were created from a survey of club members and an extended group of photography enthusiasts.

“We combined [the surveyors] with well-known photography teachers in the area and had conversations with them about what they would be excited to teach,” he said. “It is a combination of polling from within the group and discussions with instructors that got us to the programming we have this fall.”

The club did not want to have any overlap in workshops from the previous year.

“This club has been a wonderful resource for photography enthusiasts and the broader community for quite some time. This is just a great organization,” Burwell said. “We have had many people who have been club members for a long time.”

He said people who love photography get hooked on it and have it become a life long hobby. According to Burwell, the club has 225 members and an additional several hundred people who are not full-time members.

Most of the workshops will be held at the D&R Greenway Land Trust in Princeton.

“That is where most of them are held. We have a wonderful relationship with D&R Greenway,” he said. “Finding space in Princeton is not that easy, so this has been great. Some classes are also [outdoors] in the field.”

The fall workshop classes are open to everyone and begin in October.

“It is open for all levels from beginning to expert. We know there is a lot of interest in photography,” he said. “We are really offering this as community service and service to our members.”
