Tamron Events

Part One: Discovery Park Workshop (Oct 14, 7-9pm)

This cinematic horror photography workshop is set against the forests, trails, and historic landscapes of Seattle’s Discovery Park. Inspired by Southern Gothic horror, classic vampire films, werewolf folklore, and the eerie beauty of the Pacific Northwest, Zeus Ramirez will guide you as build scenes that feel pulled from a forgotten horror film candlelit rituals in the woods, mysterious figures emerging from the darkness, vampires wandering through the night, and the possibility of something much worse hiding just outside the frame. We’ll focus on practical lighting, atmosphere, composition, movement, and in-camera effects to create images that feel haunting and cinematic rather than staged. The goal is to create photos that tell a story and leave something unexplained.

Part Two: Post Processing at Glazer’s Camera (Oct 17, 1:00-2:30pm)

The story continues in the post-processing class at Glazer’s Camera, in the second floor Classroom, where we’ll take the images created during Fright in Focus and push them further into their cinematic world. Zeus will take you through his process for turning a raw photograph into a finished image, including color grading, contrast, selective lighting, environmental cleanup, atmospheric effects, and subtle compositing. We’ll look at how small decisions in Photoshop and Lightroom can completely change the mood and story of an image transforming a straightforward location photograph into something that feels like a frame from a film. The class will focus on creating a cohesive visual language while still keeping the photograph grounded in the original capture.

Bozeman Camera’s annual Photo Expo is back and Tamron is very happy to be returning to Montana in support! Tamron pro Jake Sloan will be leaving his Alaska home to join us and will be giving a talk that breaks down how he preps for and captures one of his photographic journeys into the Alaskan wilderness… Jake will even showcase a bit of how his timelapse workflow has changed and expanded with the TAMRON-LINK and Tamron’s Lens Utility (TLU) app! Exclusive pricing, free firmware updates, a room full of cameras and lenses and education. A perfect weekend in Bozeman.
