Last week I had the pleasure of being 1 of 3 students at Carla Ten Eyck's Tuesday workshop. It was my first ever time being at a workshop and, let me say, I'm hooked. It was such a kick in the pants, get back to basics, wonderful time of shooting, editing, and understanding what truly makes a good image. Not to mention the ladies in the class were fabulous and Carla's cooking is top notch :)
All in all, it was a wonderful day!
However, during the shoot we got busted by the po-po for being at a train yard we had permission to be at. One of our subject's, Jack, is a train engineer. It made me giggle to hear him say to the cop, "This is my office" when the cop told him we were all trespassing. No worries though, we made it out without too much of a hassle and headed over to the UConn law campus.
The day was wonderful for me to shoot without having to think about all the other things going on in my life. It was great to look for light, wait for moments, and create great photos. But, more than anything, it was an awesome time to connect with local photographers who share my passion for photography. I walked out of the experience feeling challenged, motivated, and with a new group of friends. Without further ado, my favorites from the day...
