Before modern photography, portrait-seeking subjects would cover themselves in year-end financial figures to meet the requirements for being xeroxed. Capture more accurate self-copies with today’s Groupon: for $49, you get a digital photography class with Glen Graves from PhotoArts Marin (a $200 value). Classes run from 8 a.m. to noon or 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Click here to view a detailed schedule with locations.

Photographer Glen Graves, who possesses a sensitive and aesthetically attuned eye informed by decades of experience, demystifies digital photography for budding shutterbugs during a four-hour class entitled The Fundamentals for the Craft of Digital Photography and an Introduction to the Design and Art of Photography. The veteran flash dispatcher allows groups limited to 50 students to pick his brain for useful tidbits on how to use their digital cameras to capture imaginative snapshots. After each class, protégés receive a take-home guide, a detailed handout on the concepts covered in the class, and a PowerPoint presentation on the scientific ramifications of string theory.

PhotoArts Marin – Glen Graves

More than 20 years of photography experience grants PhotoArts Marin's Glen Graves more than just an eye for an ideal snapshot. His skill with traditional film cameras, lighting, and composition elements imbues his photos with a quality that has drawn the attention of such clients as Ford, US Air, and Architectural Digest. When not capturing boudoir portraits or smiling families during photo shoots, Glen can be found in the classroom teaching aspiring photographers the tricks of the trade, from using dynamic angles to frame a subject to how saying “cheese” banishes spirits intent on photobombing.

The Groupon Guide to: Propaganda Posters

Classic propaganda posters have the retro style and forceful visuals that drive apartment decorators wild. Here are some that will really class up your bare walls:

Year: 1915
Image: A tiger with big angry eyebrows destroying a child’s birthday party. All the children are wearing red, white, and blue clothing and are clearly terrorized.
Caption: The tiger symbolizes the bad guys. Please become a doughboy.

Year: 1946
Image: A housewife is polishing a shotgun as she eyes a bunch of pigeons.
Caption: The boys need meat!

Year: 1955
Image: Vladimir Lenin going to college
Caption: Read books breed red crooks. Support American illiteracy.

Year:1967
Image: Uncle Sam lighting the fuse on a rocket with a bunch of bags with dollar signs tied to it, all under a starry night sky
Caption: Space: we promise it’s worth it.

Year: 1995
Image: A man talking on a cell phone being loomed over by a massive cloud monster labeled "Radiation?"
Caption: Convenient—but at what cost? Paid for by the American Bell Telephone Company and Curly Cord Inc., makers of fine family cords.

Which posters simultaneously look great and remind me of national tragedies?
