A Crash Course in Night Photography at a Celebrated, Historic Cemetery

June 18, 2016
A Crash Course in Night Photography at a Celebrated, Historic Cemetery
Have you ever wanted to learn the nuances of off camera lighting and night photography? Would you like to create whimsical, colorful images of monuments and landscapes using the light of the full moon? California Preservation Foundation and Cypress Lawn Heritage Foundation are offering an exclusive opportunity to learn all of the functions of your advanced digital camera and create sweeping, well-lit images of one of the largest, most renowned memorial parks in California.

This workshop will be limited to 25 attendees, so register early before spots fill.

Colma is a uniquely Californian necropolis. Its 1,500 living residents are outnumbered by 1.5 million buried residents. Among its rolling hills and verdant greenery is Cypress Lawn, home to some of the West’s most famous leaders and thinkers, including the Hearst family, Claus Spreckels, and Hubert Howe Bancroft. Cypress Lawn also holds the largest collection of stained glass in the country.

The workshop includes five hours of instruction. A tour of Cypress Lawn’s most stunning features will be followed by an in-class study session and an on-site night photography workshop taught by renowned night photographer, Troy Paiva.

You’ll learn about the history of Cypress Lawn, visit its grandest and most magnificent crypts, and spend 2 hours in the field with hands on instruction on how to use your digital camera in the dark.

This course is appropriate for anyone interested in photography, cultural landscapes, San Francisco Bay Area History, and memorial architecture. All skill levels are welcome, though the course will train you in basic to intermediate night photography and lighting techniques.

A camera with manual settings (i.e. an SLR or DSLR), flashlight, and tripod are strongly recommended for this course.
