Beyond the Frame: Street Photography as a Gateway to Discovery

Please join us for our First Friday meeting on November 6th. Our guest speaker will be writer and photographer Juliette Mansour. Juliette says: "Street photography asks us to train our eye, to read a scene, to be nimble with candid moments, and to work with the light landscape of public places. This talk traces how those developed instincts can lead us to discoveries and an evolution that brings a deeper understanding of ourselves as photographers. For some, it brings us closer and more embedded in a subject's world; for others, a shift away from strangers and toward the environment itself. We'll touch on a little street photography philosophy and leave plenty of room for discussion." Juliette will also be judging our digital competition, themed *A Different Point of View*. Presenter: Juliette Mansour is a writer and photographer working across connected projects. The Additional f-Stop is her weekly Substack newsletter, and Casa Dresden is her creative house where all the work comes together. She shoots digital and film, developing her own black-and-white film at home. Her work is shaped by photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Fred Herzog, and Vivian Maier.
