A Creative Nature Walk with Your Camera

Join us for a guided photography class where creativity meets mindfulness in the heart of Vermont’s Manmade Natural Wonder. We’ll venture together to Grand Lookout—a serene trail with sweeping views surrounded by granite quarries taken back by nature, peaceful forest paths lined in birch trees, granite carvings and ferns peacefully coexisting. Along the way, I’ll encourage you to slow your pace, quiet your mind, and engage your senses.

This isn’t about technical perfection. It’s about connecting—with nature, with your creative spirit, and with the present moment. We’ll explore how intentional, mindful photography can be a form of creative meditation.

Whether you’re using a DSLR, phone, or film camera, this class is for anyone who wants to deepen their relationship with photography—and with themselves. You’ll leave with new images, but more importantly, a refreshed way of seeing.

Perfect for: All levels looking to reconnect with the joy of the process. The walk will be more of a wander than a hike to include those of all fitness abilities. The optionto explore the other 30+ quarries on your own is encouraged, and a map of suggested locations will be shared. Let’s wander, notice, and create—one mindful frame at a time.

The photo walk will be led by Jamie Proctor-Brassard and begins at 1p.m. on September 27, 2025. The rain date is September 28, 2025 at the same time.
