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!
