Photography Workshops

Photography Workshops are ideal for photographers of all levels seeking to step up their game or find their creativity. Lots of thought and preparation go into these workshops so that we can visit key locations during their optimum conditions. I keep my Workshops small so there is plenty of time for individual growth, freedom of space, and learning at your own pace.

All Workshops now include training before and after the trip. This includes compositional training and how to see and capture light, the trip Itinerary, sample images, and what to expect. Also, software programs that I use for trip planning and during the trip. Both sessions are recorded and include step by step post-processing that you can use as a guide following the Workshop.
