April 21, 2025 at 7:00 PM: John Barclay will present “Through the Lens of Love”
John Barclay says, “If you are like me, you’ve probably chased after images, even images you might have seen searching for inspiration on social media. You may have even created a checklist to be sure you got exactly what you planned for. You have likely gone out with expectations only to be disappointed when the conditions were not right, or you did not find what you had hoped for.
Realizing that photography is a creative art form, I am constantly exploring new ways to connect with my subject. Over the last few years, I have been learning to fall in love with rather than just photograph what I am drawn to. Love? Really? What does love have to do with it? That is what this presentation will disclose. How does the love of my subjects influence my photography? It boils down to this — I photograph what makes my heart sing!
In this presentation, I will share stories and my thoughts from a 20 year journey to where I now look through the lens of love. I hope you will join me.”
