Annual Photography Retreat with NH Society of Photographic Artists

If you plan to attend please register ASAP, so that we can make appropriate plans based on the group's size.

Register at http://starisland.org/program/nhspa/

We want active participants and we welcome anyone to make a short presentation on anything photography related. Email your ideas to petererandall@gmail.com or joemazzaglia@gmail.com.

Roger Goun will be our guest photographer this year and a “focus” of our program will be black and white photography. Roger’s specialty is black and white digital, and many other members also work in monotone, for example Bev Conway, David Speltz, Ken Kartes, Carol Van Loon, and Jay Goldsmith. We’ll have printers and plenty of paper for participants to make prints. If you haven’t worked in black and white this a great opportunity to experiment and talk with others who specialize in monotone. 

Another consummate black and white film photographer is Gary Samson, one of NHSPAs’s founding members. Gary has been working on a long-term project of photographing the nude and he will be presenting a special program on this subject for our retreat. Gary will discuss how he finds models, how he approaches a shoot, and how he edits his images. He will show lots of examples of his work.
