Sigma Presents: Macro Mini-Session

Event Description:

Mastering the Magic of Macro, The Ultimate Guide to Macro Photography

Learn how to capture the smallest details in everyday subjects – whether you're photographing nature, exploring the city, or setting up shots at home or in the studio. Macro photography adds a fun and creative twist to your favorite genres, from landscape to street photography to portraits.

First, we’ll kick things off with a condensed version of Steph’s beginner-friendly macro photography class. You'll learn how to choose the right gear, plan your shoot, dial in your camera settings, compose your images, and work with available or added light.

Then, we’ll put those skills into action! Steph and the team at Art’s will have two macro practice stations ready for you to explore. Whether you’re new to macro or just looking to build confidence, you’ll leave with new skills and fresh inspiration.

What to Bring:

• Your camera
• A macro-capable lens*
• A fully charged battery

*No macro lens? No problem! Steph will have Sigma macro lenses available for you to borrow during class.

Do I need to pre-register?

Pre-registering isn’t required, but it really helps us plan! It gives us a better idea of how many people to expect and what gear will be on hand. Walk-ins are absolutely welcome, but if you know you’re coming, giving us a heads-up is appreciated! Please only RSVP to this free class if you are confident you can attend. This helps us run smoother events for everybody!
