Inspire Your Camera Club

INSPIRE YOUR CAMERA CLUB WITH A VIRTUAL EVENING WITH DAVID DUCHEMIN

Photographer and best-selling author David duChemin has taught this amazing craft on all seven continents, and has appeared on stages for companies like Amazon and Apple to explore the human side of this craft and the making of photographs that are not only sharp, but truly engaging. A former comedian and a gifted teacher, David's virtual lecture will inspire members of your camera club to go deeper with their craft and find greater joy in the exploration of their vision.

"David, on a scale of 1-10 your lecture was an 11. It was a real treat for the cold dark month of February. You have however created a problem for the club: what do we do next? Big thanks from Ajax.” - Roy RR, Ontario
A Compelling Lecture With (and About) Heart.

Illustrated by inspiring photographs from around the world, David's Heart of the Photograph Virtual Lecture is roughly a 90-minute conversation (including Q&A time) exploring ten powerful ideas about the creation of more engaging photographs.

Using Zoom Webinar, David will meet with your camera club and discuss techniques and ways of thinking about the creation of images designed to engage human imagination and emotion, including questions of vision and intent, the use of space and time, the creation of depth, and the use of point of view. We'll also discuss mood and mystery, storytelling, and what this all means for our choices of moments as well as more practical considerations, like the creative use of exposure tools, composition, and more.

This will be a camera club meeting they never forget.
Great Bonus Resources.

As part of the Heart of the Photograph virtual lecture, David will provide free downloads of two of his best-selling eBooks (a $42 value) to every guest. In addition to the free downloads, this presentation will be recorded and made available to your club so members can go back to experience it again, and those who are unable to attend can still benefit from the presentation.
One Great Presentation, No Sales Pitches.

This is not a sales pitch cleverly designed as a webinar in hopes that participants will purchase something. No opportunity will be given to purchase anything, just a chance to download a couple of free eBooks. The Heart of the Photograph Virtual Lecture is designed for one thing only: to inspire you and your club to make photographs that have greater vision, deeper engagement, and—above all—heart.

"Wow! David packs so much into this hour and a half that you’ll want to go back and re-watch the recording. Then watch it again. Calling this lecture inspirational falls so far short. With signature duChemin humour and heart, he shares his hows and whys behind creating truly engaging, expressive images and leaves us with insightful questions to further our own craft. Our club members were blown away."
- Almitra Hill, Sydney, Australia
One of the most inspiring talks that I have ever seen.

"David spoke to our photography club in Athlone, Ireland and it was one of the most inspiring talks that I have ever seen. He pointed out simple changes that everyone can make to improve their photography. It was extremely insightful and educational. Our club members loved it and they were all raving about it afterwards. I would highly recommend him to other clubs. "

- Liam Kidney Chairman of Athlone Photography Club, Ireland

Exactly what our members needed!

"David’s presentation was fantastic! Exactly what our club members needed! I’ve read his books, listened to his podcasts, and read most all of his blog posts and I was still excited and impressed."

- Dennis Baker, West Shore Photography Club, Pennsylvania.

Compelling, enthusiastic, and so Inspiring.

"David exceeded our expectations as his presentation was compelling, enthusiastic and so inspiring. We now feel energized to try and bring more depth and emotion to our photography. Thank you so very much for the precious time spent with you during your presentation."

— Marek Pleszczynski, Club Photo Sherbrooke, Canada

Inspiring to new and veteran photographers alike.

"What a delight to have David duChemin speak to our camera club. His presentation, "The Heart of the Photograph" is inspiring to new and veteran photographers alike. His knowledge of the "rules" and his delight in breaking them provides a wonderful jumping off point to encourage photographers to "make art" and "follow your own vision."

- Donna Parrone, President, St Louis Camera Club
I'll never look at my camera the same again.

"So many photography lectures get trapped in the realm of equipment, social media trends, and post-editing. David's lecture traversed a different plane of photography entirely: one of heart, adventure, and experiencing the raw emotion of the craft. I'll never look at my camera the same again."

- Dustin Glaseman, Manitoba
