The even was perfectly organized by Aliah Husein. She is an excellent instructor and guide As many times as I?ve been to the Palace for Fine Arts, I never worried about the lighting challenges of this place. Aliah guided us through those challenges and showed the tricks how to combat the harsh lighting and yet get the best photos possible. I enjoyed every moment working with Aliah and the beautiful model Seema she invited to pose for us. Looking forward to more photo meetups with her!

Really enjoyed working with Aliah and the model Seema. Aliah is a great instructor, showed a lot of tricks and critiqued my photos, a learned a lot from her. I liked her choice of a venue for fashion photography, very well suited for it, and very minimal human traffic. I look forward to more photo events like that.

It was great to have only two of us in the class so we could get more time to ask specific questions and guidance. Aliah provided very thoughtful feedback and encouraged us to try photographing from different perspectives and angles. I also appreciated Aliah's advice for what would make a photograph stronger and what we should look out for.

Excellent Instructor for someone that is begining on digital photography. Had the knowledge and expertise to help with cameras different than hers. Her patience was infinite and her ability to communicate the fundamentals of photography will be truly invaluable going forward in my learning. Above all the class gave me the introduction I needed to get started and remain motivated to learn. I will definitely be looking for more classes with her. Thank You

I've always loved travel blogger photos, but I've never been able to capture the same cool shots. That's why I decided to visit this group and I'm so happy that I did. Nice to meet Allan. Allan explained the concept of HDR photography and during this group meeting, I realized how all these Instagram photos were taken. He also explained to me how to take beautiful photos by taking photos from the same place but with different focus areas. Also thanks to this group I understand how to take panoramic photos. I recommend visiting the SF photography group to anyone who wants to improve their photography skills.

I love taking night pictures of my home city. It still amazes me to see all the city lights, and I?m proud to show off my San Francisco. I often go for night strolls or drive around until something catches my eye.On this particular night, I kept driving up and down the piers. I noticed an open door at one of them, so I decided to check it out. Inside, I met a really friendly guy, and after I explained what I was doing, he said it was all good for me to be there.As I continued exploring,

Driving home after out playing with my camera taking photos on my co-workers farm, I drove past this dam. I've never seen it before as I'm still relatively new to this area. I immediately pulled off the side of the road and grabbed my gear. I am a follower of Gary Gough, a fine art photographer on YouTube. He said one way to learn is to copy someone else's work to learn and get better. So that's what I did. LOL. Using his teachings I combined long shutter speeds with ND filters that allowed me t

As part of my final project as a fourth-year photography major, I chose to explore and document Calgary?s sculptures, which embody the history and heritage of its people and landscape. One of the highlights of my work is By the Banks of the Bow, one of the largest sculptural artworks in North America. To enhance the visual impact of the image, I utilized Photoshop, particularly to create a dramatic sky that seamlessly complements the dynamism of the horses and the cowboy.This piece celebrate

This long exposure shot is from August, 2024. I was visiting Liberty State Park, New Jersey. From Liberty park you get such an AMAZING view of the NYC skyline looking across the water. It?s awesome during the day but even more magical at night as you can see. I?d recommend a visit here just for the views to anyone.
