What will you gain? 

​

✅ Quick introduction to the basics (if you're a beginner) – If you're brand new to photography, we recommend starting with our Photography Classes to learn essential skills in a more focused environment. This way, you’ll be fully prepared to dive into capturing incredible shots during the workshops!

 

✅ Mastering light and composition in Nature Photography

​

✅ Catching the perfect moment

​

✅ Understanding long exposure techniques and how to use filters effectively

 

✅ Learning aerial/drone photography – If you own a drone, you must already know how to fly it confidently. The workshop will focus on techniques for capturing stunning aerial shots and mastering composition, rather than basic drone operation.

​

✅Exploring hidden gems in National Forests, State Parks, and other public lands (we do not conduct workshops in crowded National Parks)

​

✅  Adventures and hikes, tailored to each location's difficulty level

​

✅ A fun and inspiring experience, learning from both your instructor and the beauty of Mother Nature
