Classes
Photographing your Fiber
Bring your own camera and a project or two, and learn the basics of lighting, depth of field, styling and common fiber-photography problems, like capturing true color, capturing stitch definition, and–in this edition, specially prepared for Sock Summit–the challenges involved in photographing… socks. We will also learn how to make a light tent at home, cheap! You don’t need fancy equipment to make good photographs–the emphasis will be on getting the best possible images using your camera.
