2012 Outdoor Photography Workshop Schedule

March 28 – March 31
Available Light Travel Photography
Santa Fe, New Mexico

This is a practical workshop on how to take beautiful travel photographs without all the annoyance of strobes and cords and battery packs. Based on the techniques I have used during my last three books I will share the tips and procedures that allow you to concentrate on taking great pictures. Daily critiques and shooting sessions in and around Santa Fe are included. Remember, it is not the gear you use but the techniques you use!

May 8 – 13
Tofino and Pacific Rim National Park
Tofino, British Columbia

One of my all time favorite workshops because of the stunning variety of habitats and subjects, Tofino is a nature photographer’s paradise. Located on the wild west coast of Vancouver Island this workshop will explore ancient cedar groves, magnificent tide pools, beaches miles long, fascinating working harbors and rocky coastlines. We will also spend a morning photographing the low tide shorelines of the back bays in search of the area’s wonderfully cooperative black bears. Taught with my great friend and fellow pro, Brenda Berry. For more information please contact Brenda Berry at bberrygreen@gmail.com.


June 17 – 23
Thinking and Shooting Like a Pro   
Manchester Center, Vermont

This unique workshop, taught with my friend and digital guru Scott Rouse, is the best way I know to amp up your photography. Over the week Scott and I cover all aspects of pro-level photography from capture to processing to presentation. We also emphasize the benefits and joys of adding purpose to your photography by way of a photography project. For further information see my blog and contact Scott for a more detailed description. For more information please contact scott@scottrousedigital.com.


July 18 – 22
The Oregon Coast
Newport, Oregon

Now really, can you think of a better place to be in July than the Oregon Coast? Crashing waves, working harbors, long beaches, beautiful lighthouses and bizarre sea creatures and colorful tide pools all close by and all easy to get to. Plus great sunsets and a fun seaside community. Taught with my great friend and fellow pro, Brenda Berry. For more information please contact Santa Fe Workshops when their summer/fall schedule comes out in early January.


October 10 – 14
Fall in Vermont
Manchester Center, Vermont

I call this my backyard workshop because, well, it is done in my (greater) backyard. Taught with my great friends and fellow pros Jeff Wendorff and Lisa Cueman, I take the class to all my favorite locations- tumbling mountain streams, misty ponds, colorful meadows and old barns. We also go to the wonderful old dairy farm that I did an entire book on to photograph the old-time Vermont of generations past. As a special treat we will also photograph two magnificent horses- running against a background of colorful trees and portraits of them with a dramatic black background. For more information please contact Santa Fe Workshops when their summer/fall schedule comes out in early January.


October 17 – 21
Fall on the Maine Coast
Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park

I have been going to Acadia National Park and the headlands of Down East for more than 20 years and every time I go there I find more things to photograph. Now after doing three books on the coast of Maine I appreciate the area even more. From the beautiful working harbors to the hidden ponds surrounded with color to the birch forests thick with ferns there are endless subjects to photograph. Don’t go with a group to all the standard places that everyone else has images of, come with us and get unique shots of a unique and beautiful part of our country. Taught with my great friend and fellow pro, Brenda Berry. For more information please contact Santa Fe Workshops when their summer/fall schedule comes out in early January.
