Photographing in the City with Matt Irwin – March 2023
On Tuesday 21st March 2023, renowned Street and Commercial Photographer Matt Irwin will take us on a walk through some interesting photographic places in the city.
| Date: | Tuesday 21st March 2023 |
|---|---|
| Time: | 6.30pm |
| Location: | Under the big screen, Federation Square |
What to bring:
Matt suggested a variety of lenses can be used to shoot street photography including zoom or fixed/prime (50mm or 35mm) lenses. As we are shooting in the night, a lens with a fast aperture of f1.8 or f2.8 are preferred. Matt prefers to shoot with 50mm or 85mm, sometimes even a zoom. However, he said the key is challenge yourself with whatever lens you have available. If anyone wants to use their own tilt-shift lens, please let me know so I can inform Matt. A tripod is not recommended as we will be walking.
Parking:
Parking is available at Federation Square Car Park after 4pm for $13.00. Street parking maybe available. Please check parking signs for hours. Public transport is another alternative.
RSVP: via email to Rebecca Kashyap by Saturday 18th March 2023

Portrait Photography with Craig Wetjen
On Tuesday March 15 we have our monthly workshop being held at the Mount Waverley Community Centre in the main hall commencing at 7:30PM. This month our guest will be Craig Wetjen presenting Portrait Photography.
You are right to be thinking that Craig’s name seems familiar to you – he was our judge for the club’s end of year competitions last year. Craig has over three decades of experience in the industry and has won countless awards. He has published his own book in the portrait genre, Men and Their Sheds, and has been involved in teaching at a tertiary level for many years. Craig is an enthusiastic and engaging presenter and we are thrilled that Craig is joining us again for this workshop.
You may note that our set subject for the club’s May competition (due for submission on April 5th) is “Portrait”, making this a very timely workshop and I am sure Craig will be providing plenty of valuable tips.
With regards to COVID-19, Monash Council have advised that masks are no longer mandatory in the Hall, although other restrictions are still in place:
- Attendees must be fully vaccinated to enter a community facility & provide proof to your group representative;
- attendees must check into the facility via the QR Code or register via the manual registration provided; and
