Learning to Make Great Pictures at Corp Executive Hotel Apartments in Dubai

Date Posted: 11-07-2011

“Cameras don’t take pictures, people do” is a well-known photo adage. Internationally, acclaimed photographer Gary Schmid recently conducted a photography workshop for beginners at Corp Executive Hotel Apartments, Al Barsha, Dubai. The event was supported by Panasonicand was attended by a select group of 10 people.

The event presented a unique opportunity to learn photography from a professional photographer. The curriculum was geared for people of varying beginner skills and different models of DSLR cameras. The participants were taught the basic digital fundamentals and techniques as well as familiarized with all modes andfunctions of their own specific models.

		Gary said, “You not only need a good camera to take pictures and to get the right exposures, but you need to know what your camera can and can’t do – especially when it comes to setting what image format to shoot with. If you can master your camera you can create incredibly powerful images from the most ordinary subjects.” Aamir Pervez, General Manager, Corp Executive Hotel Apartments, said, “We are dedicated to providing a nurturing environment for any kind of art including creative photography and are glad to host these workshops which will be conducted on a regular basis. It is an opportunity to learn all of the cool things you can do with your camera from somebody as experienced and talented as Gary. Our state-of-the-art meeting rooms make the perfect learning
site providing budding photographers the right space and atmosphere for exploring their visual passions.The beauty of Gary’s workshops is that these are made up of small groups in order to give personalized attention to all participants.” It proved to be a fruitful day for all attendees who seemed extremely thrilled with their newly acquired skills. “In just a day I can confidently say I became a better photographer. I learnt a lot and would love to attend any upcoming courses by Gary,” said Frances Wakefield one of the participants. “The workshop was absolutely wonderful. I truly enjoyed being there,” said Amitava Majumder. Equally delighted was Paul David Roy, “We had a great day at Corp Executive Hotel Apartments and would like to thank the organisers for this fantastic session. I am sure there are a lot of people out there who can take advantage of these courses.” The first part of the 6-hour course was dedicated to theory while the second was all about putting the day’s learning into practice. Equally inspiring were Gary’s creative tips and techniques, and a special presentation on Panasonic Lumix DMC – G3K. Registration for the next two workshops, scheduled for August 12 and 13, is open now. The one-day session is priced at AED 850 and is inclusive of 2 coffee breaks as well as 3-course set menu lunch at the stylish Mood restaurant at Corp Executive Hotel Apartments.
