Hey folks,

On August 21st, we’re doing a Photo Walk in Coney Island with the NYC Street Photographer Collective. This is going to be a special one limited to 25 people. This photo walk is going to be objective based and is designed to give photographers intent when they go out to shoot–which will also help them flex their visual muscles when shooting. Those who RSVP will be given instructions on where we’re going to meet and a whole bunch more info.

It’s starting at 1pm and it’ll go until 4pm. After that, we’ll grab food and hang out.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
