Pat Mingarelli has over 25 years of experience as a pro photographer. He teaches seminars and workshops at Metro Community College, Iowa Western Community College and the Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium.
In addition, he posts daily to his website The Visual Bible Verse of the Day and has a speaking ministry called The Creation Speaks.
As a photographer, Pat realized that learning to write would help him get more photos published. As a writer, you’ll find the reverse to be true.
When you submit your written material with good photos, it’s more likely to get published. Even blog posts on you own website are far more likely to get read when accompanied by a strong image.
But just like Pat wondered how to write a great blog or devotional, you probably wonder how to take a great photo. Well, Pat knows, and will help us gain a better understanding of what makes a good photo whether we use an iPhone or digital SLR with interchangeable lenses.
He will also cover other topics including proper resolution for online and print, image compression, copyright issues, composition, lighting, choosing stock photography and what to consider when submitting multiple images with an article.
Please join us for this information-packed presentation.
Feel free to bring a snack and beverage. This meeting is open to all. After the meeting we’ll gather for our relaxed Afterglow chat session at Village Inn, 7837 Dodge St.
