As far back as I remember I would always invest in a Sony Camera. In the early 2000’s you could catch me in the club with my digital camera tied around my wrist enjoying my night. It wasn’t until I attended a M3ll0Walk that I realized how much I loved photography.
On Sunday, August 28th I attended a photography event hosted by M3ll0Drama and Snapville. This event was hosted at the beautiful Aloft Hotel in Secaucus, NJ. The minute you walk in the lobby you were greeted by plush seating and pops of color all around the room. The space was warm and welcoming for all in attendance.
The room began to fill with creatives from all over the city - photographers, models, content creators, entrepreneurs etc. DJ Ant Smalls was on the scene setting the vibe for a fun and interactive Sunday afternoon. Shortly after - classes were in session! Beginning with “How to shoot in small spaces”. Photographer Brian Johnson gave our group a brief tutorial and allowed photographers to come up one by one to shoot their best shot.
In between mixing and mingling with people around the room, grabbing drinks and dinner at the bar, or snapping photos….we were brought back to center. An announcement about what was next on the scheduled rang over the microphone and commanded our attention. The evening came to a close with a nature walk for golden hour at a trail located a few minutes from the hotel.
What I loved about this event was the itinerary of sessions mixed with the flow of many creative energies. I was able to learn so much and mingle in the space chatting with those in attendance. I feel everyone in the space got what they came for. Whether that was learning how to use their camera better or just getting a few fresh shots for posting.
I left feeling fulfilled in so many ways. Cheers to all the creatives who made this possible. You may follow their movement on Instagram and show them some love.
