Instructor Information
Marie Joabar has been immersed in photography and photography education for more than 25 years. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge of photography, cameras and digital technology with others.
Whether she’s teaching photography, helping one better understand their camera or “see” better compositions, she works to build your confidence and take away the intimidation and sense of overwhelming that often accompanies learning new things.
Marie founded Capital Photography Center in January 2012 to help those with a love of photography grow their skills and reach their goals. To this end, her company offers a wide variety of photography classes taught by professional photographers and photographic educators where amateurs, hobbyists and professionals can learn about the areas of photography suited to their interests and experience level.
In addition to running her business and teaching, Marie finds time to enjoy her own photography and loves country landscapes, dynamic cityscapes especially at nighttime, and capturing people; both candid and posed. Her travels have given her the opportunity to photograph in Europe and throughout the United States. Her work can be viewed on her website at www.mariejoabar.com
