The workshop introduction is a slide show illustrating what participants can expect from both the field and classroom sessions.
2012 Workshops
For 2012 I am introducing the "Complete Workshop". The Complete Workshop is designed to accomodate small group instruction which includes lodging, ground transportation, airport pickup and workshop fees. I decided to re-design my 2012 programs to allow a more personal experience for my participants. By including ground transportation, this allows us to be more flexible with our shooting schedule and it helps build comradery amongest the participants. This format also allows us to share information as we move from one location to another.

Spring is in the Air - Great Smoky Mountains
Cost: $1899. Limited to 4 participants
Includes: Airport pickup at Knoxvill International Airport, lodging during workshop, ground transportation, guide and workshop fee.
The Smoky Mountains is a classic workshop destination and one to bring in a season of fun and creative outdoor photography. After leading many workshops through this park over the years, it remains one of my all time favorite locations. The mountain streams are flowing their best, the forest floor is lined with spring wildflowers and the forest canopy is fresh with vibrant green foliage carrying the fresh scent of spring. I will guide participants into one of my favorite locations in American and we'll sharpen our skills and wipe out the cobwebs from our camera bags. There is nothing that can replace good solid fundamental field techniques when it comes to creating great photography. Computer manipulation should be for creative expression not to hide sloppy field work. We'll spend our days creating photography you're proud of and I'll share tips on how to edit and process images. For those photos you want to be a bit more creative with, I'll share techniques I use when I want to embellish that traditional look.
Workshop is limited to 12 participants. Workshop Policies.

Rhododendren Blooms and Giant Trees - Redwoods Region, Northern California
Cost: $1899. Limited to 4 participants
Includes: Airport pickup at San Fransico International Airport, lodging during workshop, ground transportation, guide and workshop fee.
The forests of Northern California along the Pacific Coast is home to the worlds tallest trees. Many things in nature bring us into a state of Awe and I believe standing in the shadows of California Redwoods is one of those moments. Our hopes for this workshop is we meet the peak of the rhododendren blooms along the coast. My many travels here during this time period have always rewarded me with many incredible opportunities to shoot these pink blooms amongest the towering Redwood giants. With a little luck we'll be greeted a morning or two with some fog to add to our experience. We will also visit the meadows above the forest for spring flower blooms. Photographing in the darkness of a dense forest can create some challenges but with the knowledge of how to over come these obstacles will open new and creative opportunities to the photographer.
