Last week Andy Frazer and I lead an Urban Night Photography workshop here in the Los Angeles area over three nights. It was a small, intimate group with varied levels of photographic skills, which worked out great.
Most of us live in urban locations, yet many people feel they have to go to a “scenic” location to photograph, whether it is day or night. Cities give me lots of inspiration to shoot at night.
Attendees said they learned a lot and got a chance to shoot at some unusual places in the Southland. Rather than ramble on about it, I think it best to see the participants take what they saw and how they shot it.
