New Workshops

Since 2000 I’ve been leading hands-on shooting workshops all over the U.S. and around the world. They’ve ranged from long weekends to two-week adventures on the other side of the earth. Group sizes vary based on the trip, but my goals are always the same – to help you improve as a photographer, come back with pictures you’ll want to share and hang on your wall while having fun and memorable experiences. To me, photography is a great social activity, and more enjoyable when done with people who share a passion for it. These are the classes and trips I have scheduled right now, with new ones added as they’re planned. At the bottom of the page you’ll find a link to galleries of photos from past workshops. If you’d like to be notified as soon as a trip I’m working on (at the bottom of the page, “Future Workshops”) is ready for registration, just use  the “Contact” button above to send me an email. 

Moab: Arches, Canyonlands and more, November 10-15 2026 – One of the most popular trips I lead, for good reason. Four full days photographing some of the best locations in the Southwest, and thanks to early sunsets, we do night shoots (with me teaching light painting) every night. And, in addition to the iconic spots in those two national parks, we’ll visit some equally beautiful, but less photographed spots in the area.  You can find all the details for the trip here.  The trip sold out fast, but contact me if you’d like to be added to the waitlist.

Newfoundland, June 8 – June 17, 2027 – Just a few days into my first visit to Newfoundland, two years ago, I said, “I’ve got to come back here!” A province in far eastern Canada, I was helping lead a photo trip there with my old friend, and owner of Highlight Photo Tours, Rene. Adorable fishing towns, lighthouses, puffins, rocky coastlines, icebergs, whales and a lot of great natural beauty – it should rank right up there with Iceland. If you’re looking for someplace new, with great photo opportunities, a bit foreign but easy to get to, you should join Rene and I as we guide a group of photographers there once more.  All the details for the trip can be found at this link.  If you have any questions, or would like to reserve a spot, contact me.

Iceland, June 23 – July 6, 2027 – Partnering with the best guide I’ve ever worked with (fun, incredibly knowledeable and a photographer!), I’m returning for one more summer trip to this landscape photographer’s paradise. I’ve led numerous trips to different parts of this enchanting country with Einar, and for this one we’ve put together all of our favorite locations to create a special trip. Waterfalls, glaciers, mountains, lava fields, glacial lagoons, geothermal fields and a puffin experience you won’t believe – it’s all here. You can find all the details for the trip through this link.  If you have any questions, or would like to reserve a spot, contact me.

Tanzania Safari, July 18 – July 31, 2027 – This will by my 11th time leading a trip to Tanzania and the Serengeti, which should say a lot. Having led safaris to a few different places in Africa, I learned that if you want to see amazing numbers of animals, you can’t beat the Serengeti. But we’ll see more than just the Serengeti, visiting a couple of other great parks as well as a couple of tribal visits. And, I’ve been working with our lead guide, Yusuf, for twenty years now, and honestly believe there isn’t a better guide for this trip.  You can find all the details for the trip through this link.  If you have any questions, or would like to reserve a spot, contact me.

Online Classes

Online Landscape Photography class – While COVID forced me to cancel most of my in-person workshops in 2020, it’s also gave me time to create some online classes. The first of those is on Landscape Photography. I teach it live, via Zoom, over three evenings with 4.5 hours of content. Send me a note if you’d like information about the next time I plan to teach it. And you can watch a video preview of the class here.

Online Night Photography class –  The second online class I’ve created is on Night Photography, where I also teach Light Painting and Low Level Lighting. I teach it live, via Zoom, over three evening (in three consecutive weeks) with 4.5 hours of content. Send me a note if you’d like information about the next time I plan to teach it. You can watch a video preview of the class here. 

Online Wildlife Photography class – This is the third of my online classes, and covers what I’ve learned and teach guiding wildlife photography trips over the past 20 years.

Contact me if you’d like to find out the next time I’m offering this class.

Online Mastering Flash class – For my fourth online class, I’m teaching how to use flash as a creative tool, in everything from portraiture to landscape photography.

Send me a note if you’d like information about the next time I plan to teach it. You can get a preview of some of the topics, as well as how I teach them, here.
