About this Event
Slow down, get outside, and discover the joy of shooting film this fall.
Join the PROCAM creative community for a hands-on film photography walk at Oakhurst Forest Preserve. Whether you're picking up a film camera for the first time or looking to sharpen your skills, this outing is designed for beginners and intermediate photographers alike.
We'll cover the fundamentals of film photography, from choosing your film and understanding exposure to metering light, loading your camera, and composing your shots. You'll learn by practicing in the field, surrounded by fall colors and natural scenery.
