Here are the new photography program ideas that I currently am working on. These programs are available for libraries and other interested groups (including historical societies, cultural organizations, camera clubs, camera stores, etc.)
Please note the Expected Date of First Available Bookings - as these are works in progress. I am asking for around six month between the first request and the first booking - that will give me time to work it up.
If there is a topic that you do not see here, please ask. I might be able to work something up.
As I am working on new program ideas, I will keep information on this page. Once a program is available, I will give it its own page.
If interested - please write Corey at coreyseeman@gmail.com.
Please see the Program Calendar for upcoming and completed dates.
Description: Digital cameras and smartphones make capturing your vacation pictures a literal "snap." With the ability to take more pictures than we might when we relied on film, a new task of managing these images that we take during vacations becomes a big job. This program will explore the history and practice of vacation photos, while sharing some tips to help you manage the digital souvenirs that you bring home.
Some Expected Takeaways:
Discover a bit about the history of vacation photography as its own genre
Learn some best practices on organizing your vacation photos
Learn about keeping photographs private or sharing them broadly - and the services that will enable you to do that.
What to pack if you are bringing your camera gear along!
Format: In-person or virtual
Length: 60 minutes plus time for questions
Please allow for six months from the initial booking to the first presentation
Description: Whether using a camera or a phone, we all have taken a proverbial ton of pictures of our dogs, our cats and the other pets that we love with. Like many photographers, I have noticed that my photos have improved with time as I have learned the nuances of the cameras. In this presentation, I will share what I have learned from taking photos of our cats and dogs over the years, and provide some historical context of pet photography through the years.
