Keynote Speech ~ “A Creative Adventure” The Photographic Journey of denise ippolito

We all have our own levels of creativity, they sometimes need to be nurtured, developed and often times--inspired. Walk with me on a profound journey through my lens and into the creative development of my artistic vision, while reflecting on your own photographic style. Explore new ideas to challenge yourself as a photographer and awaken the artist from within...

Creative Filters & Effects Slide Program/Workshop

My eBook "A Guide to Creative Filters & Effects" has been so successful I decided to offer a workshop/slide program for camera clubs, meet- up groups etc... This is a one hour and fifteen minute program which will start off with a slide show of creative images featuring the effects that can be achieved with the different filters that I use, followed by a "before & after" segment which shows the images that I use before the filter and then after the filter, this is a very eye opening segment. The final half of the program is what I like to refer to as the workshop part of the program. I will be working on my laptop (which will be displayed on the projector screen) demonstrating different filters and Photoshop plug-ins as participants watch and ask questions. I will share many of my useful tips and techniques during this session.

Bloomin' Ideas Slide Program/Lecture

My one hour slide program/lecture "Bloomin' Ideas" will cover the in-camera techniques that I use to capture beautiful flower images: composition, depth-of-field and selective focus, the use of extension tubes and reflectors, and the use of natural light. You will learn to create impressionistic flower blurs by using your camera as your paintbrush. I will also go into detail explaining my creative processing and multiple filtering effects that I use on a daily basis. You will be inspired to develop your creative vision and your own original works of art. If you love to photograph flowers this program is for you.

A Blend of Art and Nature Slide Show Program

My one hour slide show “A Blend of Art and Nature” will explore the combination of art and nature. My artistic bird photographs and creative filter designs will inspire you to step out of the box of conformity. I will share some of my pleasing blur images along with some of my tack sharp flight shots. A visual experience of photographs from local hot spots to images from around the country. This slide show will have something for everyone.

Additional offerings...
