Jodie Hulden is a well-regarded artist who specializes in Black & White photography. She will take us through the history of this medium while showcasing famous photographers whose work is vastly different yet breathtaking. Jodie gave this presentation to WiCP and I thoroughly enjoyed it. JodieHulden.com
Jodie Hulden is a California-based artist whose contemplative photography focuses on intimate landscapes and still life vignettes. She has a degree in art from San Diego State University. She has studied with George DeWolfe, Carlin Tapp, Michael Frye, Brett Erickson and Susan Burnstine. Her work has won numerous awards and she has exhibited her prints nationally.
Debbie Lefever is an award-winning, passionate photographer who loves to shoot anything in front of her lens. Her flower photography is as beautiful as it is technically perfect.
Debbie knows we are mostly intermediate/advanced shooters so she won’t talk (much) about aperture, shutter speed and ISO. She will teach you the tips and tricks which took her a bit of time to learn about shooting flowers. Tips for shooting in the field. Tips for shooting in your studio. Ways to look at light and gear differently. How to find hidden beauty.
I became acquainted with Debbie through a mutual friend. The first work I saw of Debbie’s were her breathtaking “twirl” images. I’ve asked her to give a brief demonstration at the end of her presentation. A bit of a “tease” to spark your interest.
Prior to the presentation you will receive a pdf with Debbie’s gear list and LOTS of resources.

Jodie Hulden is back by popular demand. We all enjoyed her presentation last July, “For the Love of Black and White Photography.” She will begin the presentation by showing some of her own work (she is an inspiring photographer) and then present “The Elements of Black and White.”
Debbie Lefever is back! You may recall at the end of her presentation last October, she gave us a brief demonstration of how to “twirl” a photo. She has a fun presentation to share with us. Next she will explain and give a beginner’s guide to creating Fractals (a curve or geometric figure, each part of which has the same statistical character as the whole).
