Workshop Details
The nature reserves and remote locations in which I run these sessions host a stunning variety of woodlands, mountains, and lochs. The sessions are completely tailored to your needs and as such are open to all levels of photographers, all the way from beginner to advanced.
The workshop itself will begin with a short walk to situate ourselves before delving in to the practice of photography, learning to use your camera (the craft of photography), composition, image critiques, and more. Throughout the day we will be focused on the art of photography & developing personal expression through a contemplative creative processes. I will aim to help you make your own intimate connections with nature as well as further your own photographic goals. Technical advice on the craft of photography will be provided throughout the workshop; any number of subjects can be covered from basic camera functions to advanced techniques like focus stacking.
These sessions are designed with the understanding that each photographer must find their own path. They are intended to open a conservation and encourage self-reflection. I am a facilitator in your creative journey.
An emphasis will be placed on (self-)critique: what in the landscape interests you and why? What is your creative process? Why is your creative process the way it is? How does your process influence the final result? Why are you using your chosen medium? What idea is your work alluding to and how could your process better capture that idea? How can your creative process tell the story of this place?
Join me for a day exploring your creative process and allow me to aid you in achieving your artistic vision.
