Workshop Details

On Sunday Aug 14th we will hold a beach shoot and picnic at Hoffmaster State Park. We did an event like this last summer and had a nice turnout. The plan is to meet at 4 PM at the picnic area by the swimming beach. We will have a nice picnic and then start shooting about 5:00 to 5:30.

We have  models lined up to shoot. You will need to bring your camera and an appropriate lens for shooting people. If you have a reflector of a fill flash you might want to bring that along also. Last year we stayed until sunset so you may want to bring a tripod. I believe there is a cost to get into the park for the day unless you have a State Park sticker already. Last year the picnic was a potluck and we supplied hot dogs, so let's plan that again. I will get the charcoal, hot dogs/buns and stuff to put on them. If every one else brings a little something we should be fine.

If you are planning on coming let me know so I have a count so I know how many hot dogs to get. Shoot me an email votrepear@gmail.com or call my cell number 616-550-9856 and let me know.
