  • Iphone model 8+ or higher, fully charged
  • Laptop or wifi-enabled I-pad
  • Snapseed downloaded before class for Session
  • Pre-selected photos from student’s Camera Roll to edit
About the Instructor, Emily Kelting:

“To call myself an artist is humbling. What I do is photograph all manner of subjects–landscape, portraits, fauna and flora–and find the beauty in them. There is no higher calling.”

Emily studied photography at the International Center of Photography in New York, the Silvermine Art Guild, as well as online in numerous courses and workshops. She is a member of the Stamford Photography Club, the New Canaan Carriage Barn Arts Center, the Wilton Arts Council, the Fairfield Museum, and has exhibited widely throughout Fairfield County and internationally in Galway, Ireland.  Emily was one of eight artists selected to the 2023 RAC Master’s show exhibiting her collection of Myanmar photographs for the first time.

Over the past few years, Emily has shared her love of Iphone photography through teaching classes at the Rowayton Arts Center, the Carriage Barn and the Stamford Loft Artists Association.   She has also taught photography classes at the New York Botanical Garden.

In other artistic endeavors, Emily is a landscape designer and for the past 18 years has owned and managed GreatScapes, her landscaping company. She is also a writer and published author. And, in one of her many past lives, Emily was a professional figure skater with the International Holiday on Ice. She finds that all of her creative endeavors feed into each other and make her very happy!
