grand rapids michigan photography clases
Kaja and I were lucky to hit downtown Grand Rapids *juuuussst* before ArtPrize 8 turned our city into an art feeding frenzy. She requested her senior portraits around downtown art murals and at the Grand Rapids Art Museum, so that's what we did, discovering some new spots along the way. Isn't she lovely?!
Kaja was photographed by Dena Robles downtown Grand Rapids Michigan on Kodak Portra 400 with a Contax 645, processed and scanned by ProPhotoIrvine.
With graduates, prom, and the beginning of high school senior portrait session my calendar has been filling up quicker than usual this spring! I have decided to open my June, July & August portrait booking calendar a bit early this year. Please email me for scheduling or any questions you may have! denarobles@gmail.com
When I teach photography classes I always do a project-based lesson. It is one thing to sit in a hard chair and have formulas and light ratios and camera manuals and beautiful examples thrown at you just to go home and pick up your camera and say "wha?"
Each of my classes is based on a start to finish project involving story, composition, perspective, exposure, editing, saving, archiving, artwork creation, printing and displaying. Along the way, you actually master your camera and the art form and have something to show for it. Win win. One of my first project-based lesson results in a lovely color collage on a photo field trip, similar to this one.
If you are interested in joining one of my photography classes, please contact me at denarobles@gmail.com I currently have a middle school group forming, a high school group, and an adult group.
