Haiku iPhoneography Workshop - Ajijic

I think haiku and iPhone photography are perfect partners. With each you are capturing a moment in time. The iPhone means no heavy camera bags, lenses and tripods to carry and distract you. It is with you all the time. Although it has a sophisticated camera, there is a simplicity to "iphoneography," just as there is with haiku.

This three session workshop will help you brush up on your haiku skills, teach you how to make the most of your iPhone (or iPad) camera and how to edit both words and images. You will soon be walking around Lake Chapala capturing those haiku moments.

We also will create journals for our haiku iphoneography. All art supplies are included. Come alone or bring a friend. Each session is 1 ½ hours and can be paid in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars or Mexican pesos. Space is limited.

Taking Better Photos with Your iPhone and iPad

This 1 1/2 hour workshop will help you get there. And the timing is perfect with Day of the Dead just around the corner. You can pay in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars or Mexican pesos. This will be the last time I give this workshop in 2018. Don't miss it. Space is limited.
