Photography Meetup at The Fair - LIVE with Kenmore Camera & Michael Sladek

Join us for all, or part of the day, to create photos at the Washington State Fair. The Fair has so many photo opportunities: people, animals, architecture and so much more. Plus, as it gets dark, there are lots of possibilities for long exposure photography.

Onsite:

Michael will be at The Fair from 1:00pm to 9:00pm, but you don’t have to be there for the entire time. Arrive and leave when it works best for you!

Here’s the plan:

• We will meet and check-in at the Blue Gate inside The Fair at: 1:00, 3:00, 5:00, 7:00 and 9:00pm.
• Each meeting time will be an opportunity to share tips and ideas and ask questions
• Michael will share tips about long exposure photography and settings during the evening meeting times

What You’ll Need:

• Weather appropriate clothing. Layers suggested if staying trough the evening
• Sunscreen is a good idea!
• Comfortable for shoes for lots of walking on pavement
• Camera and extra batteries and memory cards
• Tripod and Neutral density filter, if you’d like to do long exposure photos

Important Notes:

• Check for email from EventBrite on day of the meetup if weather is not cooperating and we need to cancel the meetup
• Each participant will be responsible for their own Fair admission and any other costs associated with your time at The Fair
• Food and beverages at The Fair are expensive! Plan accordingly…
