Alex Marrero Miami Public School

The Photography Program at Coral Gables Adult Education is a unique learning opportunity available to adults in Miami interested in heightening their abilities as a photographer.  The purpose of the program is to assist working adults, artists and professionals in preparing for careers in the photography industry.  Alex Marrero Miami photographer believes that there is a great deal of value to be gained from this public school learning experience for adults.  Returning to school isn’t always easy; especially for individuals who have yet to receive their GED (General Educational Development) certificate.  Coral Gables Adult Education Center makes that possible — and then some!  Courses and programs available include:

  • Adult Basic Education
  • ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages)
  • GED Preparation
  • Citizenship Consulting
  • High School Completion
  • Speech & Diction

As a creative and artist who found photography later in life, Alex Marero is deeply inspired by the photography program at Coral Gables Adult Education.  The course introduces creatives and professionals to everything from basic use of digital camera techniques to communication skills, leadership skills and employability skills.  An all-encompassing program, Marrero believes that this course exceeds its basic expectations.  Not only will participants learn the knowledge and skills necessary to maintain camera equipment and develop gorgeous visual compositions, but they will also learn professional development skills for a future career in art.

Alex Marrero Miami Train Museum Field Photography Workshop

A fleet of majestic steam and diesel locomotives will act as your subjects in this unique field photography workshop.  On January 6th 2024, artists are invited to join Rafael of The Art of Photography International (TAOP Miami Chapter) at Gold Coast Railroad Museum (GCRM) to capture industrial images of historic transportation pieces.  With the museum’s railroad surroundings as your backdrop, creatives and artists will have the chance to learn new strategies in manipulating light in their images.  Participants at the workshop will also learn lessons on how to adapt their camera kit and toolbox of composition techniques to meet available light and field conditions (both positive and negative).  Alex Marrero looks forward to expanding his portfolio with images of these historic passenger and freight railcars.  The opportunity to receive technical feedback out on the field is a unique experience of its own.  This field photography outing workshop has a $10 entry fee. 

The Gold Coast Railroad Museum (GCRM) Field Photography Workshop will be taught by The Art of Photography International (IAOP Miami Chapter) workshop leader and instructor Rafael.  A seasoned photographer and instructor in the art, he has taught numerous classes through the “My Community” School program.  Fellow Miami based photographer Alex Marrero is inspired by Rafael’s field photography outing workshops.  These practical learning events are invaluable for artists and budding creatives looking to learn new techniques.  The upcoming January 2024 field photography workshop event also offers the opportunity to expand your portfolio with quality compositions.  Marrero looks forward to adding new light techniques to his technical toolbox and expanding his portfolio with images of some of America’s most poignant locomotives.
