Producing Better Prints With Zack Schnepf

As photographers, we tend to spend a lot of time learning the nuances of taking photographs and how to develop them. Zack and I feel that a physical print is still the ultimate way to experience an image. To get the best quality prints requires an additional base of knowledge and set of skills. In this two day class, we will show you the techniques we use to achieve prints that look great and reliably match the master image file as closely as possible. As with all aspects of photography, becoming a master printer could take a lifetime. But with the information and workflow ideas that we will share in this class, our goal is to take some of the mystery and anxiety out of printing, simplify the process and help you consistently create prints that you love.

We are fortunate to be able to collaborate with HD Aluminum Prints, a company that specializes in the highest quality dye sublimation aluminum printing available. In the class, we will cover how to get great print results from a variety of printers and print media. Then we will help you prepare one of your images for aluminum printing, which will be printed for you by HD Aluminum Prints. At the end of the class, you will have a 20×30 inch gloss finish aluminum print to take home. You will be also able to talk to HD Aluminum Prints owner and fellow photographer, Randy Hopfer, and take a tour of the facility to learn how aluminum dye sublimation prints are made.

Sean has been a full-time photographer for 15 years. He has extensive experience in printing for clients, commercial installations and art gallery exhibits.
