Slow Roll #2: Photo Walk + Coffee for Creatives with Koen van Assema
Spend a Saturday afternoon exploring Amsterdam through your lens with photographer Koen van Assema.
We'll start with coffee and introductions at Toki Cafe, then head out for a 1-1.5 hour photo walk through the city. Koen will share his approach to portrait photography.
During this walk, we will take street portraits of each other. Koen will teach you how to use your camera, light your subject, and compose your images. He will also share general tips for photographing people, and answer any questions you may have.
You're welcome to bring any kind of camera (digital, film, or phone), but the focus on this walk and Koen's expertise is digital photography. Bring your camera and curiosity :)
