Mobile workshops meet at the Boat House in Forest Park every Monday and Saturday, and the Saint Louis Zoo every Wednesday and Sunday.
Helmed by professional shutterbug Brian K. Owens, STL Photo Art’s walking photography classes introduce fledgling picture takers to the world of memory capturing through informative, interactive sessions. Shutter snappers wield their own cameras, manuals, and charged batteries while traipsing through outdoor wonderlands, learning how to catch nature at its best without startling animals or causing trees to combust beneath bright studio lights. Participants focus on picture composition and color combinations, gleaning helpful tidbits on integrating surroundings into vibrant portraits while perusing Forest Park’s Grand Basin lake or the Saint Louis Zoo for inspiration. Bring along a friend as a modeling subject or employ nearby sunflowers for close-ups, zooming in on petals or photographing seeds for math projects on the Fibonacci sequence.
