We Are Photo’s January 2023 Meet-up at Weald Country Park: A Day of Photography, Dogs, and Scenic Walks
This weekend, the We Are Photo group had an unforgettable photography meet-up at Hylands Park in Chelmsford. As always, the event was a wonderful mix of creativity, fun, and community, and this time, we had some very special "models" joining us: a big group of golden retrievers! Their playful antics and golden coats made for the perfect photography challenge.
I set two fun challenges for the group: capturing the best dog photo and the best landscape shot. The golden retrievers certainly didn’t disappoint, offering plenty of adorable moments for our photographers to capture—from their joyful runs to the serene expressions as they relaxed in the grass. It was heartwarming to see how every photographer interpreted the task differently, showcasing the diversity of styles and skills in the group.
Once the dogs had finished their modelling session (and melted all our hearts), we took a relaxed walk around the park. The beauty of Hylands Park truly shone through as we explored its peaceful woodlands and open spaces. It was the perfect opportunity to experiment with landscape photography, try new techniques, and simply enjoy the stunning surroundings.
As always, we ended the day with a group photo to celebrate the connections we’ve made and the memories we’ve created together. It’s not just about improving our photography skills at We Are Photo—it’s about building lasting friendships and supporting each other in a creative, welcoming environment.
