This is our all-new two day digital workshop! These intensive two-day workshops are a great way to take your photography to the next level. The workshops are limited to 25 participants and two instructors; this ensures plenty of one on one instruction in both the field as well as classroom.

During the workshop you will have the opportunity to work one on one with an instructor in the field. Each workshop includes two field sessions to ensure practice of principles covered during lectures. Your work from the field sessions will be reviewed in an honest and supportive atmosphere where you may learn from successes as well as mistakes.

Our teaching philosophy is based upon the belief that learning through experience is the most thorough and enjoyable process of learning.

We will cover all the basic camera functions of a digital SLR type camera, fundamentals of the photographic medium, and most importantly how to SEE photographs.
