Our first walk will be held at the National Art Center Tokyo in Roppongi. The walk will be led by professional photographer Tia Haygood, and will focus on:

  • Understanding “portrait mode;”
  • Capturing patterns in nature and architecture;
  • Taking creative risks

This photo walk is open to those using DSLR cameras, point-and-shoot-cameras, and even smartphones. After shooting with tips from our walk leader, we will sit down to share photos, ideas, and constructive critique. Beginners, photo-curious, and those interested in honing their skills are all welcome to join. We will be largely shooting OUTSIDE the NACT.
