About this Event
Are you afraid of the dark- or just afraid of Off Camera Flash? This spooky season, face your photography fears head-on in the haunted heart of New York City! Join us for a thrilling afternoon where we literally put the 'boo' in 'bounced light' and turn those scary shadows into bold, beautiful portraits.
From Fear to Flash Express (30-Min Crash Course)
Before we hit the haunted streets, we'll kick things off with a power-packed classroom session to demystify flash photography. You'll learn a fast, no-fuss process that'll help you conquer your fear and take control of your lighting-even in the darkest corners of the city.
NYC Costume Photowalk
Once you've armed yourself with knowledge (and maybe some garlic), we'll head out into the urban night for a hands-on photowalk featuring a killer model, dramatic vibes, and endless street-style inspiration. Whether you're lighting under streetlamps or creating ghoulishly good shadows, every attendee will get their chance to direct, shoot, and shine.
- Open to all levels, especially the flash-curious and the flash-fearful.
- Bring your camera, but don't worry about the lighting equipment, as JC will be bringing a set of strobes and triggers that will guide us away from badly lit portraits.
- Costumes encouraged (but not required)- because let's be real, everything's more fun with a cape.
