Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
Hello all, I am looking to find a photgraphy class in the south jersey / philly area... If anyone can help steer me in the right direction, that would be a great help. I looked at gloucester county college and gcit for those in this area, neither seemed have anything decent..

Thanks In Advance........

As a occasional Philadelphia area resident I have no advice to offer, but am watching with interest.
 
What are your goals? A degree? Beginner level course? What is your experience level?
 
If you're just starting out, I'd suggest any place that will grant you access to a dark room w/ chemicals. The basics of photography should be taught pretty straightforwardly in any institution.

If you can even find access to a dark room and feel comfortable with simply reading about photography in books and the web, then I'd suggest that as well if you're on a tight budget. Once you understand exposure and how to control it, there isn't much else you'll get from those courses other than critique which can be easily gained via web sites such as this one.....Then again, a one on one critique wouldn't hurt either.

Goodluck!
 
I am not looking ot deal with film, i have no interest in such. I shoot 100% digital. I am a new shooting since may. As for degrees, not looking at such just want som classes to help learn the basics.. nights weekends evening sort of thing even daytime just a basic class then maybe some more advanced classes...
 
Project Basho in Philadelphia is excellent for photography courses.
Also, the Center for the Arts of Southern NJ in Marlton NJ also have some photography courses taught by Jack Fanning. I can't speak for the CFASNJ courses, but I have taken classes and workshops at Basho and it's worth every penny.
