Itinerary
Every day has different lighting conditions and opportunities, so the itinerary will vary with your goals and experiences in mind. Your tour will cycle from shooting to review at various locations that challenge you in different ways.
At each location, I’ll be close by to provide advice as you need it. It’s not my goal to commandeer your camera and take pictures my way. Instead, I’ll help you achieve the image you see in the landscape and your mind’s eye.
Because digital photography offers instant review, we’ll analyze your shots and make technical adjustments when necessary to improve your images.
Each photographer will photograph a subject differently, and that’s part of the fun. By the end of the tour you’ll be far more prepared to capture the moments that resonate with your artistic vision.
