Photography Workshops With Sylvia Galbraith – In Person & Online

Courses and workshops are held at my studio in downtown Fergus, in the historic Fergus Marketplace building, central to Guelph, Kitchener, Orangeville and the Toronto area.  This large venue has the space for practical work during class time, while it’s location close to the Grand River and the Elora Gorge make it an exceptional starting point for field trips and photo walks.  I offer workshops for all levels and cover many different topics.

College Level Photography Courses

In response to the need for higher level photography training as local colleges and universities reduce their course offerings, I have developed a series of courses based on the college-level programs I have developed for various educational facilities.   These include in-depth instruction for those wanting more challenging programming – serious hobbyists, those needing photographic skills for work, or who are are planning a career in photography.  These are available in-person in my Fergus studio (195 St. David St. S., Second Floor) and online as scheduled.  Suitable for ages 19+.

General Interest Photography Courses

Designed for hobbyists, or those who prefer to study single topics rather than register for a series of courses, the general interest program includes workshops on basic or advanced camera skills, and many stand-alone two-hour classes on single topics, such as Black & White Photography, or Night Photography.  Many of these feature field trips and hands-on practice in studio, and are suitable for a variety of skill levels.

Private/Semi-Private Lessons in Photography Skills, or Adobe Photoshop

Don’t have time for a scheduled class?  Have you bought a new camera and are looking for some tips to get you started?  Need some help with Photoshop or Lightroom?  Or is there a specific topic you’re interested in…studio lighting, flash photography, portraits, or wedding photography?  If you don’t see a workshop that suits your schedule or individual needs, consider taking a series of private lessons.  These can be scheduled during weekdays, evenings or weekends as time allows, and can be purchased as single 1 hour lessons, or as blocks or 5 or 10 hours, to be used in sections that suit your schedule. Have a friend or two who might like to join you?  I can schedule semi-private groups for 2 to 3 people, prices are per person, registrants must attend together as scheduled.
