Shakers were a religious group formed in England in the 1700s from a variety of religions, including English Quakers and Methodists. (Shakers were named based on their ecstatic dance, initially known as “Shaking Quakers”.) Shaker communities sprouted throughout Northeastern Colonial America, eventually heading westward. Due to the celibate nature of the communities, the Shaker communities dwindled into the 20th century, including the Hancock Shaker Village, which was closed by the Shakers in the early 1960s.
Opened in 1961, the Hancock Shaker Village preserves the heritage of the Hancock Shaker Community from the past two centuries. The settlement is complete with 20 Shaker buildings, a working farm and significant collections of Shaker furniture and artifacts.
On this walk, we will photograph the living spaces of this historic sect’s wholly simple (and simply holy) lives. We will attempt to tell the story of the Shakers through what they left behind. This will include an emphasis on Composition and discussing Black & White, architecture, and close-up photography. Come photograph a fascinating historical lifestyle!

Capture to Print featuring Newburyport at Night
2018-11-09 15:30 - 2018-11-10 13:00
Printing your photos will make you a better photographer. The first step to creating a great print is by understanding how to create a great photograph in the field.
Capture-To-Print is an intermediate workshop that focuses not only on photography, but also editing and printing! Half photo walk, half editing and printing, we will take you through the whole process–from Capture to Print— to demonstrate what is important in the field, how to effectively process photos, and why printing is a necessity.
For our third Capture to Print Workshop, we will begin by photographing scenes at sunset and blue hour in downtown Newburyport, then continue around the vicinity for night photography. We will follow it up the next day with a processing and image review session, along with the creation of a print for every attendee (13″x 19″) at Hunt’s Photo, Melrose.
The process of printing is extremely important to developing one’s photographic vision. Even the best quality of monitors are significantly lacking in the fine detail that prints can provide, and prints do not hide your mistakes! Our image review will also help us all understand what it is that we “saw” in the field, and our instructors will help you edit using Lightroom techniques, including basic adjustments, color adjustments, black and white processing, image sharpening, and more!
