Meet at OurSpace: 1052 Waimanu St, Honolulu, HI 96814
An informal, chill meetup for a portrait photo walk; we’ll move from one location to another in the
surrounding areas, looking for the patches of beautiful light during golden hour into the blue hour
with our beautiful model, Summer.
GOAL:
* I’ll be following the light wherever it takes us to make
beautiful street portrait images.
* I’ll be utilizing both natural light & flash. I'll also be balancing flash to enhance the
existing natural light.
*This photo walk will be a hands-on mini workshop where you’ll also be able to photograph our model.
