About us
I have been the organizer of a photography meetup group based out of the Chicago for a number of years. Now, I want to do what I love and organize events, talks, classes and excursions closer to where I live.
This is a group for anyone who takes photos. You can be an established photographer or a beginner. You can have tens of thousands of dollars in equipment or a simple smart phone. You can join us for every outing or only a few. The main criteria for being a member of this all-inclusive photo group is wanting to learn, share, meet other people, and enjoy photography.
The group is geared for those who can attend live events in and around the Western and Southwestern Suburbs of Chicago, but anyone who wants to travel and meet up with us is welcome. We will take photo walks, host a variety of photography related talks, have a variety of photography classes, as well as go on periodic photography adventures throughout the Midwest, and eventually throughout the country and coming in 2024 internationally. The sky is the limit.
Come out and give us a try. I run a very friendly and inclusive group. You will learn new photo techniques, how to compose a photo, and make new friends along the way.

EQUIPMENT AND SKILL LEVEL
This event is open to all skill levels from professional to new photographers - especially to new shooters. Any camera from a cell phone to a Meta Eyeglass camera works for the purpose of our event. I don't think tripods are a good idea. If you are bringing a drone make sure you ask the rodeo organizers first - we don't want to spook the people or horses.CHANGES
Dates, times, meeting locations, and other details can change. Be sure to check for updates before the event.LIABILTY RELEASE
