Hands on workshops in amazing locations

These workshops are designed to push you out of your comfort zone and understand what it takes to be where you want to be. We emphasize learning how to open your eyes and see differently with the goal to capture the best images of your lives in beautiful locations.

Sunrise to Sunset

From sunrise to sunset and often after dark with the Milky Way and the amazing night sky, these workshops are the perfect place to explore new possibilities with your photography.

Right Place • Right Time

 From being at the right place at the right time to talking the technical side to learning the latest post processing techniques, you will learn to push yourself to think different.
