No need for a fancy camera, the best camera you have is the one you have on you, your phone works very well!

Do I need prior photography experience?

No, this workshop is meant for all skill levels, whether you're taking photos for the first time and need some guidelines, or if you're a professional and you'd like a different perspective - the main goal is to build community with fellow creative people.

Do I need to know how to use the settings on my camera?

In this workshop, we'll focus on the photo-taking creative process and not the technical camera process, so bring a device or use an automatic mode on your camera so it doesn't distract or frustrate you while we're out taking photos.

How will we view the photos we took on our walk?

Bringing your laptop or tablet to view your photos on a larger screen would be helpful, but not required, the most important thing to bring is yourself.

About this event

Arts • Craft

Come hang with Lyon for a 2-hour photography workshop where the only requirement is a phone camera and a willingness to look at stuff. We're gonna wander around the neighborhood finding interesting things that have always been there—you've just been too busy thinking about groceries.

No art degree needed. No fancy camera needed. If you can take a decent photo of your lunch, you're already qualified.

Lyon van den Oord teaches design and animation at MICA and Baltimore School for the Arts. His work celebrates play, curiosity, and exploration, capturing life's energy through a lens of wonder.
