The Art of Bonsai Photography Class at Meijer Gardens

Join professional photographer Dusty Brown at Frederik Meijer Gardens for an engaging class that combines two wonderful pursuits: photography and the art of bonsai. You'll work among the garden's fall displays, learning how to capture these miniature living sculptures through your camera lens. The instructor will guide you through the fundamentals of composition, lighting, and perspective—the essential tools for photographing subjects with intricate detail and refined form. This class welcomes both beginners hoping to explore artistic photography and experienced photographers looking to refine their technical abilities. It's a perfect way to deepen your appreciation for bonsai while developing practical skills you can use long after the class ends.
