Braddock Photo Works and ASMP Pittsburgh present a photo walk and meet & greet in historic Braddock, PA. Explore Braddock, learn some of its immense history and best of all, make photographs of the photogenic community!

We’ll start at the recently restored Ohringer Building and rove the streets looking for great photos.

There will be a stop at the Braddock Arts and Media building, the future home of Braddock Photo Works, a nonprofit center of photography. The BPW is 2800 sq feet dedicated to photography, and will soon have a complete traditional darkroom, a full digital editing & printing room, plus gallery and studio space.

We’ll end at Braddock Public House, home of award-winning craft beers made right in Braddock.

So, charge those camera batteries, and come to Braddock to meet up with other photographers and make some great photographs!

Eric is a Brooklyn-based photographer and filmmaker whose powerful work is deeply influenced by his upbringing in Flint, Michigan. His early years, shaped by a love of drawing, playing in bands, and discovering photography and filmmaking, gave him a creative outlet that kept him grounded. His photography continues to reflect the complexity of childhood experiences, blending a psychological depth with a strong sense of the Midwest.

Eric’s editorial work covers profound and diverse stories—from the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women crisis to Election Day in Flint and the first Women’s March. His images have graced Wired, The New Yorker, Esquire, The New York Times Magazine, and many more, and he has collaborated with brands like Nike, Adobe, Airbnb, and Paramount+.

As a passionate mentor, Eric shares his expertise with young artists through guest lectures at institutions like the School of Visual Arts and ICP, while his award-winning films, such as MOTEL and The Call, showcase his commitment to storytelling and creativity.
