Tickets on Sale! buy now Saturday, May 16 from 9 – 11 a.m. $60 non-member/ $40 members — price includes all-day admission to the Zoo! Calling all budding photographers! Interested in getting your start in wildlife photography? The Louisville Zoo and Murphy’s Camera are here to help! Murphy’s Camera’s Education Coordinator Ayrica Bishop will introduce you to camera basics, the exposure triangle, composition, and how to make the most of available light. A Zoo staffer will share tips on animal behaviors to watch for and the best moments to gather dynamic action shots throughout the Zoo. Designed for teens and adults with little to no wildlife photography experience, this hands-on session goes beyond the classroom and into the Zoo. In May, participants will begin in the MetaZoo with the smaller animals to practice techniques like photographing through glass, then head into the Africa Zone to photograph giraffes (with no visual barriers) colobus monkeys (to practice photographing through mesh) and gorillas (to practice photographing through glass). Following this itinerary, participants are free to roam the Zoo on their own to snap those special moments. Stay tuned here for what is planned for September. buy now
