Speaker Night with Doug Johnson – Exploring Your Subject

January 7, 2021 @ 7:30 pm

Doug Johnson

Please join us for a unique and thought-provoking presentation on “Exploring Your Subject.”  Doug will take us beyond the edicts of composition to help us understand the historical meaning and importance of the “rule of thirds.”  Imparting a workflow for fully exploring one’s subject, Doug will help the photographer discover the qualities which make an image so attractive. By incorporating these techniques, we can begin to communicate more personally with any subject matter to create a richer, more expressive narrative for our photography.

Doug Johnson is a highly respected professional photographer and educator, always sharing the art of photography with his students and colleagues.  He has conducted over 150 workshops in some of our world’s most beautiful locations including our country’s national parks.

For more than twenty years, Doug has educated hundreds of students, from all over the world, in the technical and aesthetics of photography through Rocky Mountain School of Photography programs.  He has also taught alongside some of the most respected educators in the field, including Alison Shaw and Freeman Patterson, as well as good friends Neil Chaput de Saintonge, Eileen Rafferty, Elizabeth Stone, Tony Rizutto, and Tim Cooper. 

Doug believes education and truth are the “means to the end” and that good old-fashioned love and fun are the vehicles we use to navigate through our journey.   Doug’s lifelong passion for teaching the art of photography is a direct reflection of the long-term relationships he shares with his students and peers.
