Photographing Butterflies and Gardens

Brookside Gardens

Wheaton, MD

Saturdays, June 16 and 23

Time: 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM

Photograph colorful butterflies in Brookside Gardens’ Conservatory and blooming flowers in the outdoor garden spaces. In a two-session workshop, learn how to capture striking images of butterflies and flowers. The focus of the workshop will be on butterfly and garden photography and the use of basic photographic equipment to capture memorable images. The workshop will include online pre-workshop instruction, illustrated handouts, and a two-hour butterfly shooting session in the Conservatory with the instructor.  The final session of the workshop will be an outdoor garden shoot with the instructor and a formal critique of participants’ photographs. 

Participants should have working knowledge of their camera, so time with the butterflies can be spent on getting the most from the photographic opportunity rather than learning camera operation. Point–n–shoot cameras are welcome.
