Concept
Nurture passion for photography through an atmosphere of exploration, practice and play in this dynamic workshop. Students examine how great photographs engage their audience visually, emotionally and intellectually. Improve image-making abilities by focusing on the technical aspects of a photograph as well as the ideas behind it. Participants work on storytelling, both capturing the environment and with digital image creation using Adobe Photoshop. Techniques to take better and more unique photos are discussed. Students learn to edit in Adobe Photoshop, retouch photos and discover ways to combine, blend and mix photographs together as well as view and discuss important photographs from the past and present.
Media
Digital photography and workflow with Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop, digital printing, group discussions and feedback

Photography & New Media
Photography has always been a vital part of Anderson Ranch, one in which students explore visual storytelling through a variety of contexts and concepts. The program has uniquely evolved to focus on both traditional photography and new media— making it one of the only workshop settings of its kind. Three floors of the Fischer Photography Center house state-of-the-art equipment, including three photography studios, two Mac labs, a traditional darkroom, and a lighting studio with strobe and continuous lighting for photography and video.
All Photography workshops are rooted in the same idea—powerful art requires rigorous inquiry of techniques and ideas. We focus on technical skills, content and critical dialog. Students have access to color-managed media labs equipped with 24-inch iMacs, flatbed and film scanners, Epson printers, and cutting-edge software including Adobe Creative Cloud. When appropriate, students utilize strobe and tungsten lighting equipment, seamless backdrops, green screen, audio and video recording equipment and Epson large-format printers.
The Ranch Photography and New Media team creates an inspiring environment, allowing artists of all levels to explore lens-based media and the journey of artistic discovery in the unparalleled setting of the Colorado Rockies.
