5 Day Workshop with Joe McNally in New York City

With a globally recognizable skyline and 8.4 million people who call it home, New York City is bursting with diversity and excitement. More than 800 languages are spoken in her five boroughs. Filled with iconic sites - the Empire State Building, the Brooklyn Bridge, sprawling green oases like Central Park and cobblestone neighborhoods like Greenwich Village - New York is a photographer's dream. From neon-lit Times Square, (named after the New York Times), to the ethnic neighborhoods of Little Italy and Chinatown, we will explore this fast paced, concrete jungle, cameras in hand.

This workshop incorporates a mix of photographic learning and discussion in the classroom, as well as exploration and practice out in the field. Most days include a photo shoot in the field, hands on learning, on location demos, specific assignments to enhance your photographic skills, and  edit-and-critique sessions in our designated classroom. The weekend is capped off by a final image presentation to showcase participants’ best or favorite work taken throughout the weekend/week.

FUN FACTS

Until the 1920s, everyone moved on the same day. From colonial times through the beginning of the 20th century, May 1st was Moving Day in NYC—and nearly everyone who needed to move apartments did so on that day. This caused chaos and traffic jams because the streets became clogged with horse-drawn moving vans and furniture. Fortunately, this strange tradition began to die down in the 1920s, and since then, New Yorkers move whenever they choose.
