Many of the early photographic images were called “sun prints” because they had to be exposed using UV lights, or sunlight.

Half Day Private Digital Photography for 1-6 People (Boston)
I was looking for a phone photography course for my fiancé and myself who use Android and iPhone respectively. I couldn't find anything perfect but reached out to Digital Photo Academy and Richard was beyond helpful in finding me a photographer who could help us improve our basic photography skills. He reached out to his team of professionals in the Boston area and matched us with Brian Diescher who couldn't have been better to work with. Brian met us where we were interested in getting started and brought us to some amazing places we wouldn't have thought to photograph. He taught us to take much better photographs so our vacation pictures would be more interesting and a better quality. Brian also accommodated us when the weather on our chosen date was pouring rain and we met the following day. It was a great experience and we will definitely reach out again if we can get ourselves more into true photography. I've already recommended it to friends looking for a good activity or day date idea.
