You’ll get tips for compelling portrait, landscape, food, architectural, and street photography, and explore ICM (intentional camera movement) for impressionistic images. John and Lisa will also share techniques for organizing and optimizing your photos, and combining them into compelling stories of your travel adventures to treasure and share.
