This FieldTrip will take us to the mecca of photography, B&H Photo where we will learn the latest studio photography tips using LED lighting and light modifiers. B&H Mavens will have several shooting stations set up and will teach you how to easily take portraits or still life shots that really look like a pro made them! They will cover the basics like how to ratio main, background, and fill light, use reflectors and reveal secrets to unleash the high-quality image making power found in every camera or iPhone.
Bring your camera (make sure you have a memory card and batteries fully charged) or iPhone and get ready to learn the basics of studio lighting.
And since the FieldTrip timing falls right in the middle of “snack time” (after lunch, before dinner), we’ll have light bites starting at 6:30pm, with the space staying open for participants to mingle and ask further questions until 730pm!
This is a more traditional format where participants absorb information through presentations and talks.
This FieldTrip will not be recorded.

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.
It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
