Agreeable Strangers: From Passion Project to Published Book

Charles Chessler started his lifelong passion project, Agreeable Strangers, on a photowalk in July of 2011. His book is a selection from the first 15 years of the project.

Charles will show images and discuss:

• Knowing your "why".
• Hanging out in "good light".
• How to ask/connect with a stranger.
• The "why" of having a business card.
• Importance of offering to send a quality file.
• Working with the book's publisher, Snap Collective.

A copy of the book will be available for attendees to check out and to order. If you've ever wanted to photograph people on the street and were a little nervous about it, this presentation is for you.

Please Note: This is a don't miss in-person event that is also livestreamed on the Adorama Events YouTube channel.

Charles Chessler is a NYC based headshot and portrait photographer who is also a great believer in personal projects.

Agreeable Strangers, 2-minute street portraits, is his longest running one, currently at 15 years.

He leads small group workshops and is an ambassador for Wildlife Conservation Non-Profit, Wild Tomorrow.
