  • Contemporary Calgary 1221 2 Street Southwest Calgary, AB, T2R 0W5 Canada (map)


This months location will be…

DOWNTOWN CALGARY

This is a monthly meetup to get you outside, explore communities in Calgary, take some photos, and have a professional photographer to answer any questions.

• Every new participant will receive a FREE copy of Jeremy’s book “The Human Connection” (RMB Books).

• Each month we will feature a new community in Calgary to explore, making sure we always walk and shoot somewhere new.

• We’re keeping each meetup to a maximum of twelve (12) people; small & intimate so we can move freely.

• Coffee at Sought & Found (DT Location) at 8-8:30am (Included with your ticket).

EVERYONE IS WELCOME!

• It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or seasoned working creative. This is an inclusive space and an opportunity to shoot and meet with other photographers while exploring parts of Calgary you may never thought to visit.

• Read your camera operator's manual as this is not a “How do I use my camera” meetup.

• We all love animals and ask you leave your pets at home.

 

Camera: Film, digital, phone, etc.

• Dress for the weather (Rain, snow, or shine) & appropriate footwear.

• Fresh batteries, memory cards, OR extra film.

• TIME: 6am-8:30am
