Hey everyone,

Don’t forget that this weekend, Dan and I are hosting a special intimate street photography workshop in NYC. You can find details here.

All those who attend get a free 24/7 Sling Camera bag. This special street photography workshop is sponsored by Adorama. More details are after the jump.

Join La Noir Image’s and The Phoblographer’s Editor in Chief Chris Gampat for an Adorama Event Space exclusive as he takes you on a journey to create better street photographs and through a growing new branch of street photography called Urban Geometry in this two day exclusive, limited-sized, intensive course. Built on the ideals of great photographers such as Cartier-Bresson, #UrbanGeometry on Instagram has turned into a growing genre focusing on the way the human eye perceives shapes and lines in a scene.

All attendees receive a free 24/7 Traffic Collection Sling bag.

Before the event, Chris will provide registrants with some material to look at. You’ll also become aware of how black and white photography works differently from color. He will teach you how to see the world in a different way.

Day 1: The class will commence with a few secret locations to be photographed and worked with by the small group. (12PM, a secret location)

Day 2: Attendees will find themselves back at Adorama to submit a single image of theirs shot during the session to be critiqued by Chris and the class. (11AM at the Adorama Event space)

Sign up for $250 right here!
