Photography has been a wonderful creative outlet for me, and I wanted to share its stress-reducing benefits with my community. Partnering with Neighborhood Support Groups (NSG), I offered this free workshop to show how photography can be a therapeutic tool for everyone.
The workshop covered the basics of composition, lighting, and taking stunning photos with just your smartphone! We even had a photo walk in scenic Steveston to put those skills to the test.
Studies have shown that creative pursuits can significantly reduce stress hormones. This workshop aimed to make photography accessible by showing that you don’t need fancy equipment to get started.
A huge thank you to NSG for helping make this workshop a reality! I look forward to hosting more in the future.
P.S. Check out the photos and video from the workshop!

One of the world-class workshop – “The Art and Craft of Photography” is scheduled on the May 14th 2022. Tickets are not available at Eventbrite.
In this workshop, you will gain a solid understanding of the essential elements in achieving a perfect exposure – shutter speed, aperture and ISO. You will also explore the creative side of photography with a focus on the conventional rules of composition, as well as how to break them. By the end of the course, you will be able to confidently craft and shoot photos in manual modes.
