The history and images to be gotten there are really a part of history you don't want to miss.   See the street cars that run along St. Charles Ave and explore  St. Charles Ave,  the Boutique areas of Magazine Street... A very interesting Part of New Orleans Culture for sure.

One could spend days photographing in the New Orleans cemeteries. There are many cemeteries in New Orleans and we focus on the most interesting ones for photography. As New Orleans is only 8 feet above Sea Level Tombs need to be above ground and these historical structures and statues make for some very beautiful imagery, colorful and monotone photography.

Full Day and Weekend Workshops

Using Your Camera to Tell Stories...

Photography in general alludes to fun and excitement. Photography also brings one to many places both in your minds eye and in the actual photograph. We travel to exotic places with the idea in mind to create equally exotic Photographs. We are travelers, we are adventure seekers and we want to see and do more and capture it through our cameras.
However if we don't know how to do it well, take Photographs... all that excitement dies fast when our Photographs don't look like what we felt and saw when we look at them. Good Photography creates a feeling and better photography get us excited. The old cliché that;

"A picture is worth a thousand Words!"

It's true... I would like to think and hope that some images are worth more words and some Photographs do all the talking. Wouldn't you like to be that Creator? Wouldn't you like to create pictures that speak to your viewing audience?
Take the first step with us at Stanwycks Photography and we will get you on that path today. We will help you understand photography and it's language so much better. You will see!

Where have you been?

Where have you been in your life? Do you wish you had taken better photographs of those places? When you think of taking photographs what do you think about? What have you done with the photographs you have already created? Have you made prints, made a web site? A book? You know, you can self publish your own book or many books.  Photography  brings one to many places both in your minds eye and in the actual photograph.

Why do we pick up a camera in the first place? Somehow in our minds eye it gives us a level of excitement and thoughts of what we can do and where we can go. As humans we want to explore. It's just not enough anymore to explore without technology, be it our I-Phones or with our cameras. Now more than ever before people are photographing everything and are the historians of there lives. So why not do it well.

You bought that camera and the lenses to create better images. You want to go explore and make pictures, see life, and all the color and action life gives. Well... if you are not sure how to use that shiny new camera you need to call us so you can learn. The sooner you start, will mean the sooner you can start shooting - getting good with what you have, and start showing your journey. why not do it well... Classes and Workshops are the way to go. Call us and we can help you!
