Intro to Editing with Kyle McKiernan

Date: Sunday, September 24, 2023
Time: 2:00pm–3:00pm
Location: Henry's Burlington
Cost: Free — Registration Required

Join us at our Intro to Editing workshop hosted by professional photographer Kyle McKiernan!

Kyle McKiernan's Bio

I got my first DSLR, a Canon Rebel T3 when I was 14 as a gift and I have not looked back since. I now specialize in Automotive Photography and have been lucky enough to work for Automotive Manufacturers, Marketing Companies, Auto Shows, and local Automotive events over the years. Although I specialize in Automotive Photography, I love to shoot wildlife photos as well; above and below water. I love how challenging underwater photography can be as you have to think about your settings, lighting, and composition all while trying to maintain your buoyancy and not running out of air.

If you are planning on attending please email burlington@henrys.com.
