Whitney Johnson
III IV
Research, produce and develop visual and
conceptual strategies for storytelling through intensive
presentations, editing sessions, discussion and ground
and individual critique. The class focuses on a variety of
important topics, including: research and/or production
of a long-term project; editing and sequencing of existing
material; writing a statement about the work; and
envisioning future forms for the project from publication
to exhibition. Special attention is given to establishing
partnerships for funding and disseminating the work. In
addition, attention to the specific projects is balanced
by conversations about professional practice and the
broader industry.
MEDIA & TECHNIQUES: We learn through
presentations, conversations, and critiques of the work.
ACTIVITIES: We review historical and contemporary
work; critique each student’s project as a group; and
develop a specific plan for the future of each project.
Attention to the specific projects is balanced by
conversations about professional practice and the
broader industry.
FACULTY: Whitney Johnson is the Deputy Director
of Photography at National Geographic. Prior to
joining National Geographic, she was the Director of
Photography at The New Yorker, where her work was
widely recognized, earning awards from the American
Society of Magazine Editors, Awards of Excellence from
the Society of Publication Designers, and a Peabody.

CONCEPT: Maximize the power of your iPhone and iPad
as remarkable creative tools. In this fun and relevant
workshop, we explore the photography capabilities of
both devices, including camera, darkroom and visual
playground that allow you to capture and process images
in the field, all with unprecedented color, depth and
texture. Whether you’re interested in composing straight
images or creating more painterly effects, you leave this
workshop with an extensive toolkit of innovative visual
techniques that simultaneously elevate your iPhone
imagery and steer it in directions that mirror your unique
vision.
MEDIA & TECHNIQUES: Participants learn how to
shoot, edit, stylize and present (including both electronic
presentation and inkjet printing) using the iPhone and
iPad. We go beyond the basics, learning advanced ways
to give iOS photographs a personalized look and feel.
Students learn to employ layering and masking methods
that refine the look and feel of images; explore advanced
editing techniques; and discover exciting and affordable
printing options, including how to create a book in under
two minutes.
ACTIVITIES: Our days are divided between classroom
lectures on iPhone procedures and in-the-field shooting
sessions during which participants can explore their
new arsenal of shooting and processing methods. Image
discussions provide insights on how to improve vision
and techniques.
FACULTY: Dan Burkholder has a long history of
looking beyond the photographic horizon to explore,
teach and exhibit the next great thing in imaging. His new
book, iPhone Artistry, Pixiq Press 2012, is the universe’s
most comprehensive and fun how-to book for iPhone
photographers.

Take your photography back in time while
adding a fun and creative aspect to your modern practice
when you discover the tintype in this unique workshop.
We explore making wet-plate collodion tintypes with
a variety of formats, including gems made with 35mm
cameras, bon tons in brownie cameras, 5x7s using a
19th century portrait camera, and even creating tintypes
without a camera by using images from you r smart
phone/digital camera and the enlarger. We also employ
the enlarger to make tintypes from magic lantern slides
and botanicals. Whether new to the process or honing
basic skills, this workshop is a great fit for anyone
interested in early hand-crafted photography.
MEDIA & TECHNIQUES: We coat metal plates with
collodion, exploring sensitizing, exposure, several
methods of development, fixing and varnishing. We also
cover tinting and special burnishing techniques, mixing
chemicals and troubleshooting. We emphasize special
attention to selecting subject matter and using natural
lighting. Basic Collodion Technique: Ambrotype and
Tintype by Mark Osterman and France Scully Osterman
is included.
ACTIVITIES: The week consists of a combination of
how-to demonstrations, the creation of images and
ample studio time.
FACULTY: France Scully Osterman is an artist-
educator and lecturer at Scully & Osterman Studio and
guest scholar at George Eastman Museum, Rochester,
