Your photography and understanding of it will be very different after attending our photography workshop.

A Photography Workshop is designed for you to learn new photographing techniques;
A photo tour is designed to take you to a great location at the best time of day and year and get you to the right places for the best light. We combine both!

Our workshops are focused on you learning and practicing new techniques combined with experiencing fascinating, wonderful and exotic locations.
We will offer an unforgettable experience of visiting fascinating places with a like-minded group of photography enthusiasts.

► Benefits of and how to use Shutter priority mode, Motion
►  Full manual control
►  How to better compose your pictures
►  Light and Lighting Theory – Quality of Light, Natural Light vs. Artificial Light, etc.


By the end of the workshop you will have a good idea of how using different methods can help you create different types of images with different feelings.  You’ll also learn how to achieve professional results using basic materials to modify and control light,  items that you might have lying around your home and/or that you can buy at your neighborhood hardware store.


You will love traveling and photography;  you'll have so much to talk about at the end of the day over a beer!
