Title: The Camera in Your Pocket: Rethinking Mobile Photography
Location: (in-person) Merry Room Auditorium, Duxbury Library
Description:
This presentation explores how mobile phones—particularly the iPhone—have transformed the world of photography with advanced camera systems, RAW support, and seamless integration with powerful editing apps. We will discuss how its portability enables spontaneous captures, democratizes artistic expression for emerging voices, and secures its place in major publications and exhibitions. We will also explore how the freedom and accessibility of mobile photography inspires powerful stories, proving that it’s not about the gear you use—it’s about the moments you capture.

Title: "Dream - Believe - Create"
Location: Presented on Zoom (link will be emailed to Members)
Description:
I believe that everyone can achieve their dreams if they would just believe they could. I also know that when you truly believe, you will be liberated to be able to create. The process and journey required to create images feeds my soul and brings me great joy. My goal in this presentation is to inspire you to capture the essence of the subjects you are drawn to. This might entail capturing a small intimate portion of a scene. It might involve more creative techniques such as multiple exposures or intentional camera movement (ICM) for a more expressive interpretation. I will also touch on the digital darkroom and how having a keen understanding of this technology can help you achieve your artistic vision. We will explore the beauty in both the grand scale as well as more intimate details.
For me...photography is simply another medium of artistic expression or visual poetry. My hope is that after spending time together you will be inspired to create images that rise above the ordinary and make your heart sing!
