iPhone Garden Photography

Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens

Unlock the power of your iPhone camera! The iPhone is more than just a camera—it is a powerful, creative companion that is always within reach. Join Susan and Neil Silverman in this fun, hands-on workshop. Participants will go beyond the basics and learn how to bring their unique vision to life, whether they are capturing everyday moments, stunning landscapes, or expressive portraits. Whether brand new to photography or a seasoned enthusiast, participants will leave with fresh ideas, practical skills, and a renewed creative spark. Through live demonstrations, relaxed group discussions, and real-time tips, this workshop explores:

How to confidently adjust settings and controls

Using exposure, focus, and filters for artistic flair

Playing with shutter speed, macro mode, and lens options

Capturing striking portraits, close-ups, and panoramas

Easy composition techniques to make images stand out

​​

Best of all, the group will head into the Gardens to practice these techniques in a beautiful and inspiring setting, because there is no better way to learn than by doing. Join the adventure and Find Your Vision—with the camera already in your pocket!

The Details​
Bring a fully charged iPhone and cord, paper, and a pencil/pen.

Consider bringing a water bottle and snacks. There will be a short break for lunch, so plan to bring a sack lunch, or you can hop over to Rhody’s Garden Cafe during the break.

The class will include a little indoor instruction and hands-on time outside. Be prepared for the weather with appropriate layers.
