Due to the PGA starting next week here on Kiawah, the scheduled Annual Meeting from next week has been incorporated into this weeks’ Monthly Meeting with Bob Krist.

This marks the end of our official 2020-2021 season – a year in which we:

• lost our dear friend John Sanders

• learned how to do ZOOM meetings,

• put up a new website
• extended our photography programs for twelve months – June 2020 to May 2021

• met many, many new and old friends from the safety of our homes

• were able to schedule many professional photographers who suddenly became available due to the COVID lockdown.

Bob Krist – Photographing People

Bob Krist is a very big deal. Nat Geo photographer. World-class speaker and instructor. His photos and videos have captured awards too numerous to mention.

People photography is often the last frontier for many photo enthusiasts…landscapes, wildlife, macros, are never a problem but the prospect of approaching a stranger for a portrait will make most shooters weak in the knees. 

In his 40+ year career, shooting extended stories for National Geographic and other magazines in over 150 countries, Bob has extensive experience photographing people and he’ll share some of his techniques in this presentation. 

You’ll learn:

• 1.  How to break the ice with strangers
• 2.  Different ways of approaching composition and style
• 3.  The best light for different portrait situations
• 4.  How to “work” a portrait session
• 5.  How to break the hold of the Instagram ‘selfie’ culture
• 6.  Why photographing people is so important

Bob will also discuss his latest book, Old Souls & Timeless Places, a book he created as the “anti-Instagram” approach to travel and photography. It won the first prize Gold Award as “Best Travel Book” in the Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism awards.
