Photography Workshop - Day 1

I will pick you up at your place of lodging in Moab about an hour before sunrise and we will head out to catch sunrise shots either at Dead Horse Point, Mesa Arch in Canyonlands National Park, or Arches National Park.  The choice will be yours.

 

The balance of the morning session will be spent at any number of petroglyph or pictograph and landscape sites in the surrounding area.  We always take a mid-day break to avoid shooting in the intense mid-day light that washes out the colors and in general creates too high contrast for good images.

 

The afternoon/evening session locations depend on the weather and the moon cycle.  There is an endless supply of ruins, pictographs, petroglyphs and spectacular landscape.  An afternoon shot for the more fit and adventurous is Delicate Arch.

 

Photography Workshop - Day 2

The morning of the second day is similar to the first day, but the afternoon of the second day includes a session of processing your images in Adobe Photoshop.  In past years I found that workshop participants went home with great images full of promise but lacked knowledge of how to do the post-processing that turns a good image into a stunning piece of art suitable for the wall.  This is a hands-on session in which the client will be at the controls of the computer.

 

We can either stay with this for the full session or run out at the last minute for one final sunset shot.  If we are working under a new moon we will do some night light painting.

These are "private" and "custom" photo tours in the fullest sense of the words.

 

You will be fully involved in the decisions of how your workshop time is spent.

 

I provide Photoshop sessions as time allows where we will process your images and send you home with the files you need to do professional printing.  Or, I can do the printing for you after your departure, have the prints mounted by DuraPlaq and ship them to you.
