SUMMARY:Abandoned Historic Pump House In Northern New Jersey
DESCRIPTION:A peculiar pump house rests in a discrete setting along the Delaware River in Phillipsburg\, New Jersey.\n\nIn 1885\, the People’s Water Company incorporated and designed a system that pumped water from wells and into a raised reservoir. The pump house in Phillipsburg was the source of this People’s Water Company system.\nThe pump house’s reinforced concrete housing holds a remarkable 51-foot tall water pumping apparatus\, also known as Big Alice. Big Alice is a 300-horse power\, vertical\, triple-expansion\, coal-fired\, steam-powered engine manufactured by Allis Chalmers of Milwaukee\, Wisconsin. At the peak of pump house operations\, Big Alice pushed 6 million gallons of water each day from its wells to a reservoir on nearby Marble Mountain as it served the Phillipsburg community.\nThe pumping station was operational until 1969\, when a new well system of submerged electric pumps went operational…\n\n\nThe pump house is now under the caring hands of the Friends of the New Jersey Transportation Heritage Center. The heritage center also utilizes the pump house as a storage facility \, and what is stored within the walls is an unexpected wealth of fascinating artifacts\, especially to an urban explorer’s eye. Inside and outside the pump house are mostly New Jersey transportation-related signs\, lampposts\, spare parts\, rail sections\, and vehicles\, retained for a future Heritage Center museum.\n\n\nWhile the pump house stood for decades like a silent reminder of Phillipsburg’s industrial past\, in 2018\, the Friends of the New Jersey Transportation Heritage Center completed the restoration of the steam-powered engine. The triple-expansion steam engine now asserts operational status and is the largest working standing steam engine in North America. (history and description of the pump house was taken from Cindy Vasko’s book\, “Abandoned Northern New Jersey”\, Homage To Lost Dreams. Used with the author’s permission. Follow her on Instagram:@cindyvasko_photography. I highly recommend all of her many abandoned series of books!)\n\n\n\n\nJoin me as we make a trip back in time\, with private access to photographically explore this amazing pump house and property. 4 hours will fly by as you find unique compositions of Big Alice\, and all of the amazing artifacts scattered about. There is also an abandoned bus\, and house on the property that are open to be carefully explored. Registration number will be kept small to allow the opportunity for participants to get images without other people in their shots.\n\n\nInstruction will be given during a pre-trek class(via Zoom)\, and throughout the extent of the workshop\,  on composition\, exposure\, overcoming the lighting challenges\, gear and more. An image review of participant images will follow shortly after the Trek.\nRegistration all includes participation in a private Facebook group where you will be able to see other participant’s images and continue the learning process in a fun and friendly community.\n\nComplete details will be email prior to the event

SUMMARY:Gruber Wagon Works Photo Trek
DESCRIPTION:The Gruber Wagon Works survives as one of the most complete examples of an integrated rural manufactory of its kind in the nation. Erected in 1882 by Franklin H. Gruber\, the wagon works evolved from a single craftsman shop\, having a variety of specialized hand tools\, into a family-operated business which employed up to 20 men who utilized mass-production methods. Unlike a modern assembly process\, wagon parts were transported back and forth between various rooms in order to complete a segment of the work. \nWagon wheels were constructed in the bench shop\, and wooden parts of the wagon were made from patterns in the wood shop. Wheels were “tired” and wagons were “ironed” and assembled in the blacksmith shop. The distinctive striping and scrollwork were applied by hand in the paint shop. \nDuring the winter of 1976-77\, the Gruber Wagon Works was moved by the Army Corps of Engineers from its original location near Mt. Pleasant. In 1978\, the Gruber Wagon Works was designated as a National Historical Landmark by the United States Government\, commemorating its historic significance as an industry from a bygone era of American craftsman. \nJoin us for a fantastic photography workshop in this amazing place! We will have private access to the Wagon Works for 4 hours! Come early and explore the other buildings which make up the Berks Heritage Center. This includes the Wertz’s Covered Bridge\, a hidden cemetery with 100 year old tombstones\, the very colorful Der Distelfink statue and more! \nYou’ll have fun photographing and exploring two full floors of vintage wagons and all the tools and textiles that went along with working on them. There is a great collection of vintage wheels\, tools\, paint cans\, work benches and much more! You’ll learn to create more compelling compositions\, work with contrasty light\, use exposure bracketing to create a series of images that can later be merged into HDR or Hi Dynamic Range images. Some models offer this feature in-camera \, so we can work on gaining a better understanding of that feature\, as well. This is a great opportunity to learn in a fun and friendly environment! \nTicket fee includes a pre-trek Zoom class\, private access to the Wagon Works\, instruction throughout the workshop\, follow up and access to our private Facebook group. \nWorkshop is great for all levels of photo enthusiasts! An email will be sent prior to the event with details on the pre-trek Zoom class\, what to bring and what to expect. This is a smaller venue\, so registration will be kept to a smaller number. So don’t wait-register today!

SUMMARY:Pennhurst Asylum Photo Trek - SOLD OUT! Contact us for possible opening
DESCRIPTION:Pennhurst was an institution for mentally and physically disabled individuals of Southeastern Pennsylvania. Constructed and opened in 1908 as a state school for the mentally and physically disabled\, Pennhurst’s property was vast\, covering 120 acres. Created to house over 10\,000 patients\, Pennhurst was one of the largest institutions of its kind in Pennsylvania. It was devoted strictly to the care\, treatment and education of the disabled. Originally named Pennhurst Home for the Feeble Minded and Epileptic\, it finally was just called Pennhurst State School. \nAfter a decade of controversy\, it closed on December 9\, 1987. Pennhurst fell into complete ruin as the complex was shut down. Buildings were abandoned as they were\, with patient’s clothes and belongings strewn about. Furniture\, cabinets and medical equipment were left to decay as if someone had just got up and walked out the front door. This is the place that will eventually resurrect into one of the most studied properties in the ghost hunter media\, and will become an amazing haunted attraction. The history is as fascinating as it is sad. \nJoin us as we photographically explore this remarkable and erie place! We will have access to the Mayflower building AND\, the newly reopened Devon building! As time allows\, we will also be taken on a guided tour of the safer parts of the grounds. \nA brief history will be given at the start of the tour\, then we will be free to photographically explore. The group will work through the two different buildings together\, but will have more than enough room so as not to interfere with other participant’s images.  \nAn overview and instruction will be given on creative composition\, exposure\, flash\, HDR photography\, light painting and more\, enabling you to be fully prepared and able to come away with creative images that truly capture the essence of the place.  \nA mandatory pre-trek Zoom class will take place a few days prior to the event to answer any questions\, get everyone inspired\, acquainted and comfortable with recommended settings\, gear and what to expect throughout the day. \nA full list of details will be emailed several weeks prior to the event. This workshop is suitable for all levels of photo enthusiasts\, but being familiar with the settings on your camera is highly recommended. You will be shooting in many areas with low light levels\, therefore it is important to be familiar with the operations of your camera. Anyone who is concerned about their level of understanding of their gear should consider scheduling a private lesson with Valerie prior to the event. \nPhysically\, you need to be able to be on your feet and move up and down several flights of stairs for up to five hours. The buildings are not heated or air conditioned\, and are in a state of arrested decay. You will be walking through areas of dirt\, dust\, and some potential hazards\, etc. Liability waivers will need to be signed for both Pennhurst and Valerie A Hoffman Photography. \nWorkshop fee includes instruction before and during the workshop\, tour and access to the buildings and grounds-as permitted by Pennhurst.

SUMMARY:America On Wheels Photo Trek
DESCRIPTION:Let’s escape the winter blues and get out and create great images at one of Pennsylvania’s premier automotive museums! \nJoin us for a fun and fascinating trek to the America On Wheels transportation museum in Allentown\, PA. Learn about the rich history of automotive transportation\, as you take a photographic tour of 2 floors packed full of history and highly photogenic automotive displays. Antique and vintage automobiles – and the displays that are part of their history\, provide colorful and creative subjects to photograph. Whether you are an automobile enthusiast or not\, you will be fascinated by the museum’s collection and inspired to create unique and compelling images you will love! It’s not as much about the cars\, bikes or trucks themselves\, as it is about learning to see and compose more creatively and capture unique images no matter where you are. \n  \nThis trek is for beginners and more advanced photo enthusiasts who want to learn to go beyond the normal snapshot\, understand their cameras in a more comprehensive way\, and learn how to use the fundamentals of photography-aperture\, shutter speeds\, ISO\, focus point and more to create truly artistic images! We will work with whatever gear you own\, but a tripod\, mid-range zoom\, super wide angle lens and even macro lens are best suited for this event. A circular polarizer and lens hood for each lens you bring will also be useful. \n  \nA pre-trek Zoom class will be held prior to the event. This class will run approximately one hour. We will review all the info you will need to be prepared for a fantastic and fun event. Info covered will be an overview of the museum and several displays. (Please note that museum displays periodically change\, so some of the images you see may not represent what is currently on display). We will review gear suggestions and recommendations and spend a good amount of time discussing creative compositions\, white balance\, how to best expose in the lower light of the museum-which will also have bright windows and lights\, and also creative use of aperture and focus point. We will also discuss the benefit of exposure bracketing and shooting HDR images. The pre-trek class also allows for more time shooting on location\, as well as greater social distancing as we continue to navigate the COVID 19 pandemic. \nPlease note: The museum has requested that all visitor’s wear a mask. You must be willing to comply with any and all COVID policies to participate. \nThe number of attendees is kept small in order to provide as much hands-on feedback as possible. Valerie will be working with individuals during the entire workshop to help you in every possible way to come away with images you’ll love. \nWorkshop runs from 10am to 2pm. We will meet at the museum at the main entrance just before the museum opens at 10. \nAmerica On Wheels is located at: 5 North Front Street\, Allentown\, PA 18102.  \nAdmission to museum is INCLUDED  in workshop fee. In case of inclement weather\, we will reschedule to Saturday January 29\, 2022\, same time.

SUMMARY:Landscape Photography Photo Trek
DESCRIPTION:Usually at this time of year\, we have a great macro photography event at Longwood Gardens during their annual Orchid Extravaganza. This year the Orchid Event did not take place for a variety of reasons due to the on-going pandemic. In addition\, the new “No Tripods Indoors COVID Policy” would make a macro photography event that much more challenging-if not impossible. BUT\, I’m really tired of the cold\, gray days of winter\, and am ready to focus on spring! I know many of you are right there with me\, so… we’re mixing it up a little. Instead of focusing on the intimate tiny details of flowers\, we will instead focus on the bigger picture-the amazing overall beauty of the gardens\, capturing the grand landscape. INDOORS. In the warmth\, surrounded by the beauty of spring flowers.  \n\n\n\nInstruction will be given on how to best capture beautiful images that include drama and depth. We will discuss the impact aperture choice and depth of field have on your images\, how and where to focus within the scene\, creative composition\, controlling exposure-especially in harsh lighting situations\, using filters for greater impact and color depth\, and so much more. You won’t want to miss this new opportunity! \n\n\n\nDue to COVID policies and out of an abundance of caution\, the number of participants will be limited. Also\, in order to help facilitate the learning process while social distancing\, there will be a pre-trek class held on Zoom\, approximately one week prior to the event. During the class we will go through recommended gear and how to properly use it to enhance your images. We will also review a variety of images to help inspire and get your creative juices flowing\, while teaching important techniques on lens choice\, composition\, exposure\, depth of field and more. Several creative techniques will also be demonstrated\, such as creating great bokeh backgrounds\, in camera multiple exposures\, zoom bursts\, shoot-thrus\, exposure bracketing\, and more-all without the use of a tripod! This class will be recorded and available to if class date does not coincide with your schedule. \n\n\n\nThis trek will be great for beginners as well as more advanced photo enthusiasts. A prior understanding of your camera will be helpful\, as this will not be a specific lesson on any one camera but on appropriate settings which all cameras that are able to be set manually will have. \n\n\n\nSince having Timed Tickets IN ADVANCE is the only way to gain access to the gardens\, and due to the limited amount of spots available on this workshop\, it is highly recommended that you sign up as soon as possible in order to get your ticket at the time the group will be entering\, and to reserve your spot.
