Digital Photography Live In-the-Field @ Ocean Beach

Come join us to discover the history, fun, and funkiness of Ocean Beach as we take our mind’s eye through one of San Diego’s most unique beach communities. This place has it all — a pier, small town stores and antique shops, great looking palm trees, and some fascinating personalities. And with the evening hours of this workshop you can catch the magical moments of the setting sun.

Let your DPA Instructor show you how to say “Ocean Beach” with your cameras.

We will meet in front of Newbreak Coffee and Cafe, 1959 Abbott Street, San Diego 92107 (@ Santa Monica Ave.) There is parking across the street and in the residential neighborhood just to the north and east.

Please bring your digital camera, a fully-charged battery, and the equipment that you can carry. Please dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.

Each Composition in the Field class begins with a talk with one of our experienced instructors, and then you and your fellow students take a stroll through one of a variety of photogenic locales (in any of the 20+ cities the DPA encapsulates).  There is street photography, magnificent interiors, farmers markets, zoos, landscapes, and more, photos of which are included within. These photos are a mix of student and instructor images in many different venues and cities across the United States and Canada.

You will have fun in the three hour session, learn to shoot strategically, get more interesting photos of the event, and walk away with a foundation to improve your photographs in the future, whether you’re traveling, or at a birthday party and everywhere in between.

Please note – if a class must be cancelled due to weather or other circumstances beyond our control we will be happy to work with you to reschedule.  If you should need to cancel and require a new class date, contact us. A $25 transfer fee will be imposed without a 3 day notice before the scheduled class.
