OCP PhotoStroll: Morning Light & Shadows

Not your typical photo class. Slow down and practice capturing morning light and shadows through creative prompts. All cameras welcome.
About this Event

Not your typical photo class. OCP PhotoStrolls are intentional, hands-on 2-hour mini-workshops built for photographers who want to slow down, sharpen their visual timing, and practice seeing light differently.

Whether you shoot film, digital, or a smartphone, all cameras and skill levels are welcome. Capped at 15 attendees to ensure everyone gets space, community connection, and 1-on-1 time.

WHAT WE’LL DO

• 00:00 – 00:15 | Arrival & Briefing: Meet at Flatiron Plaza, grab your name/IG handle sticker, and review our creative prompts for the morning.
• 00:15 – 01:15 | Guided Shooting: Work through prompts focused on morning light pockets, low-angle shadow geometry, and single-shot anticipation.
• 01:15 – 01:40 | Route Transition: Practice on the move as we head south toward Washington Square Park.
• 01:40 – 02:00 | Back-of-Camera Review: Wrap up with a low-key group image review to share favorite frames and talk through what worked.

MEETING POINT & LOGISTICS

• Where: Flatiron Plaza South (Broadway & W 23rd St). We will gather on the paved plaza directly across from the tip of the Flatiron Building.
• What to Bring: Any camera with a fresh battery/card (or full phone charge), walking shoes, and an open eye.
• Weather: Rain or shine! In the event of heavy rain or severe weather, we automatically shift to a pre-planned covered/indoor route nearby so we can still shoot comfortably.
