WASHINGTON PHOTO ADVENTURE

Washington Photo Adventure: Workshop and Walking Tour (Walking tours, 3h)
Here is a dream for any photography lover, new or experienced; What if you had a professional photographer available to help you take better vacation shots? Join a combined workshop and tour of Washington DC led by a professional photographer, who will help you achieve your “personal best” photos. Every workshop (whether the half-day or full-day option) starts with a 45-minute morning overview of camera basics. These include composition, lighting, shutter speed, and F-stop. The teacher moves onto architectural and travel photography, outdoor portraiture, and tips for indoor photography without a flash. Now for the best part— you can try these newly learned techniques while touring Washington D.C.’s esteemed monuments and landmarks (including the White House, Lincoln Memorial, and dozens more!)
Half-day option: Inspired by your new photography skills, set out to capture the legendary D.C. monuments and sights. See the White House and Lafayette Park in early morning light. Adjust your F-stop or size up the composition when you see the Albert Einstein Memorial, Vietnam Memorial and Lincoln Memorial. Try action shots on the city streets and at bustling Union Square. At the end of the tour, continue your own travels, taking winning photographs from now on with your enhanced skills.
