Jumpin Jiminy There's a Lotta Photography Stuff Coming Up

So, if you've got a camera, and you don't know what to do with it... you just aren't trying. There are so many shooting opportunities in the area over the next few months, that if you don't show up to SOMETHING, you need to re-evaluate if photography is actually something you are interested in.

Let's start a list, shall we?

• Tuesday, March 23rd - Direct Supply in Milwaukee - Product Photography with Cory Albrechtson, hosted by the Milwaukee Strobist Group.
• Sunday, April 11th - West High School in Green Bay - Totally 80's High School Shoot, hosted by the STUN Photography Group.
• Saturday, April 17th - Milwaukee - Downtown Milwaukee Architecture, hosted by the Milwaukee Photography Meetup Group.
• Saturday, April 24th - Wayne's Daughters Greenhouse in Racine - Flower and Macro Photography, hosted by the Milwaukee Photography Meetup Group.
• Saturday, May 15th - Studio MLP in Racine - Manual Mode/Exposure AND Basics of Lighting for Photography, Hosted by Studio MLP
• Tuesday, June 15th - Autumn Ridge Clubhouse in Franklin - Light, Shoot, Edit! Hosted by the Milwaukee Photography Meetup Group.
• All weekend, July 24th and 25th - Studio MLP in Racine - Legio X Workshop, hosted by Jim Bunker.

And these are just the ones I know about.

Plus, multiple HELP PORTRAIT planning meetings for the December event.
Plus, Frank sure ain't done with his ANYTHING GOES shoots.
Plus, whatever the Racine Camera Club and Photo Kenosha are up to.
Plus, more events being added all the time to the aforementioned meetup.com groups. I have it on good authority that also within the next few months, there will be a wildflower shoot at Petrified Springs Park in Kenosha, Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop Classes in Franklin, a group outing to the Ren Faire in Bristol (Kenosha), volunteer shooting for animal rescue / shelters, the Scott Kelby Photowalk is coming up in July.

WHEW

Seriously, whether you have $10,000 worth of gear in a $500 camera bag, or you just have a point and shoot camera that you barely know how to use, there are PLENTY of chance over the next few months to go out, do some shooting, do some socializing, make some new friends, and basically, just enjoy your hobby.

If you have any other information about upcoming events, please send me an email, and I will add them to my list.
