Join us for three fun-filled days learning landscape and travel photography in Whitefish, Montana and Glacier National Park.
Whether you are looking to take better photos in your own backyard or on your next trip, you will leave this workshop with a greater understanding of essential photographic skills and how to create images with impact.
It can be a real challenge to turn a beautiful scene into a strong photograph. There are a lot of factors that go into creating a landscape or travel image that truly captures your memories of a special place. That’s where this workshop comes in. We will start with a review of exposure concepts, move through camera and lens basics, and explore topics specific to landscape and travel photography.
This workshop includes lectures, demonstrations, field shoots, and a group image review.
Our field shoot locations will include the parks, lakeshore, and forests around Whitefish. We will also zip over to spectacular Glacier National Park for a field shoot weather permitting.
Here is a sampling of what we will cover:
The best camera settings for capturing landscape & travel images
Creative composition
