Venue Description:

The Toronto area is full of great photo opportunities, no part more so than Yonge-Dundas Square, a focal part of the downtown Toronto community.

Famous for its bright lights and advertisements, it is a perfect place to juxtapose colorful, shiny consumerism and passers-by’s reactions to it.

It is a perfect place for portraits of interesting and zany people and bright lights, but it’s also a fantastic place for images of beautiful and interesting architecture, modern and gleaming and old-world, both, which your DPA instructor will teach you to capture. Leading lines and camera angles can transform a building into a gorgeous image.
