UNSW Photography Club

Do you ever wonder how studio fashion photographs get that studio look or why product photos from the big electronics manufacturers look so much better than the snaps you see up on eBay? One thing that sets the professionals apart from the others is the ability to think about and control light. Join us as we explore the world of photographic lighting - how to think about light, the equipment we can use and how we can incorporate the ideas behind photographic lighting into our general photography. Along the way we'll also learn how to take photos that we admire and deconstruct them in order to learn how to use light in a similar way in our own creations.

Hey guys, welcome back to another semester.
We have a great line up of events, outings and tutorials, so remember to check your inboxes regularly for more updates. =D

Next Sunday the 17th August, we are organising an event to Live Green Festival which is held at Victoria Park in Camperdown. (Next to Sydney Uni) So if you're keen on greening up your life and taking sustainable photos in the process, I suggest you all come!

There will be competition on the day, where groups will be formed and themed challenges throughout the day. So come along and join in the fun!

Our brunch meeting spot will be at George Street Maccas, across the street from Railway Square, at 9am. There's plenty of cafes around, but that's where our central meeting spot will be. Shoot us an email if you're interested so we can gauge the numbers.

Macro and Camera Theory tutorials from 5.30pm Tuesday 15th April, K17 Seminar Room

Hi Fellow Photographers,

Join us in an introduction to the world of close-up photography! In this tutorial we will cover the equipment, theory and techniques involved in taking photos of things on a small scale, from true macro photography on the scale of small insects and plants through to tabletop product photography. In particular we will cover the use of consumer point-and-shoot cameras as well as digital SLRs with a variety of lenses and the use of off-camera lighting with both improvised equipment and standard flashes.
