Major Workshop Organizations

Santa Fe Workshops 

The renowned Santa Fe Workshops are at it again this year, hosting classes in Santa Fe, San Miguel de Allende, Cuba, and many more. Santa Fe Photographic Workshops instructors are among today’s most influential photographers and participants of all levels are welcome. They host various classes through out the year, and below are a few highlights coming up:

Momenta Workshops in partnership with Leica Camera  

During Momenta’s workshops, which are a collaboration with Leica Camera, each student is paired with a nonprofit organization for the duration of the workshop to produce a photo story or package of documentary work on their outreach efforts. The nonprofits range from schools, orphanages, hospitals, animal shelters, advocacy and arts organizations. Students on these workshops have the opportunity to shoot with a Leica M camera, which also features HD video capabilities. Students truly get the documentary experience in the field while having 1-on-1 mentoring sessions every day with an instructor for at least an hour.

Within The Frame Photographic Adventures 

Within The Frame Adventures are about the passionate discovery and photography of people, place, and culture. They emphasize the importance of going slow, lingering, experiencing, absorbing, savoring, and taking the time necessary for the excitement of the new and exotic to blend with an understanding and appreciation of the surroundings in order to find one’s personal vision. Here are some highlights for the upcoming year lead by Jeffrey Chapman, Elizabeth Opalenik, and Winslow Lockhart:

    You can find my 2015 workshops including Night Photography in San Francisco, Creative Flower Photography at the Maine Media Workshops, and Digital Black & White at the Heidelberg Summer School of Photography listed with links for more info on my Workshops & Events page.

    I have a photo trip planned in June to the Imperial cities of Eastern Europe, and another one in the autumn to Cinque Terre in Italy.

    My goals in leading photography workshops are to have fun, be thoughtful, teach and learn, and to help participants grow as photographers to become the most creative they can be.

    I’ve designed a 3-in-1 Beginners Photography Bootcamp, basic details below, more details at the web link. If you’re around London during February or March it would be great to have you along…

    Q. What’s included in this ‘3-in-1’ workshop?

    A. First we’ll begin with an informative 1hr presentation on exposure and metering. There’ll be plenty of opportunity to ask questions, after all this isn’t a lecture. Knowing how to shoot on the manual mode will set you up for the rest of the day.

    Secondly, there’s nothing quite like putting theory into practice and the middle section of the day will involve shooting the pictures you want to shoot with advice and feedback as and when you need it. Throughout the two hour photo walk we’ll also discuss the important topic of composition.

    Finally, if we don’t digitally process our images we’ll never tease the full potential out of our files. Using your tablet or iPad and free software we’ll go through how photographers asses their images and decide what adjustments to make.

    I teach a variety of different workshops in the U.S. and overseas. They can be found at http://davidhwells.com/workshops/index.php Most revolve around learning how to get the person place or thing in front of the camera onto the sensor (or the piece of film or the printed page) just the way you want (which is the major challenge in photography.). I was also selected by Photo District News as one of their “Best Photography Workshop Instructors” suggesting out that I can teach photography as well as make a great image.

    This is your opportunity to learn landscape photography directly from John Fielder in Colorado’s most scenic locales, and from time to time in other states and countries.

    Find out how John creates his award-winning images and gain a deeper understanding of the visual aspects of nature. In comprehensive classroom sessions and at field shoots in John’s favorite locations, learn how to spot photo opportunities, experiment with different perspectives, improve compositions and get an insider’s look at professional techniques. We use digital cameras only and bring our laptop computers for constructive critiques.

    Appropriate for practiced beginner and intermediate photographers, John’s Colorado Photography Workshop programs are designed to help students reach at least their next level of ability and enrollment is limited to ensure the highest quality experience. Most workshops are conducted with the assistance of a second professional landscape photographer so that everyone enjoys personal attention and no question is left unanswered.

    Hey all! We are stoked to be hosting a three-day wedding photography workshop, November 10th to the 12th, in my home-base, the beautiful island of Aruba!

    To photograph a wedding takes a lot: quick-thinking, improvisation, adaptability and technical know-how.

    You have to be prepared to be a photographer. And a therapist. A family counselor. A seamstress. A director. A comedian.

    And sometimes, while we are busy being and doing all of those things for our clients, we forget to make sure we are also doing those things for ourselves. We neglect to feed our own spirit and passion.

    This workshop is a blend of feeding your creative monster and balancing the crazy excited, wonderful whirlwind that is photographing weddings, so you can find that ideal mix of vibrant artistry and inner zen.

    We’ll be combining tips and tricks on how to feed both your body and your soul, as well as exploring the insanely wonderful island of Aruba to create some kick ass images and immersing ourselves in the local culture (and cuisine!).

    Our goal is to have you leave Wanderlust, stoked to photograph your next wedding, full of energy.

    And newfound creativity.

    A healthy perspective.

    A peaceful mind.

    And a tan. 🙂

    Photography for Publication, Journalism 22 at Santa Monica College in Santa Monica California.

    It’s a photojournalism class producing a weekly paper and daily online news updates.

    No better way to practice the craft than by doing the job.

    It’s a tiny program, but I’ve coached five students who were accepted to the Eddie Adams Workshop. Students have been consistently winning local, state and national competitions.

    16 week class, three credits, $47 a credit.

    My husband and I had the most amazing experience on our recent photo Cuba trip!! Photographer ‘pag’ Paganelli showed us all the in and outs of the country while amusing us with his anecdotes and stories about his travels. He is a total kick, but much more importantly, he gave us access to many amazing places that are off-limits for regular tourists. We went into government chambers, saw a local cockfight and even helped to roast a pig (which we then ate for dinner).
    I took amazing photos in color, my husband shot mostly in black-and-white, and pag worked with us in both digital and film. He is a throwback to the era of film but also extremely knowledgeable on current technologies since he is not only a visual arts photographer but also has a hugely successful editorial and commercial career. And he’s so much FUN!

    Paganelli knows his way around the sometimes in penetrable seeming country. He has been visiting Cuba for decades, and is top notch editorial professional in the states. He gave us an amazing combination of Cuban insider as well as photography instructor. And we even got to meet some of his Cuban relatives.

    I cannot tell you how much I loved my experience traveling through Cuba with Pag. My husband and I highly recommend this wild adventure and beautiful artistic opportunity to all levels of photographers from professional to novice were looking to capture ‘The real Cuba’…. And you better go soon, because it is getting more packed with tourists by the second.

    6-Night advanced time lapse and night sky photography workshop with more in-field instruction and more locations. Classroom sessions will focus on post production of stills and time lapse sequences.

    Workshop attendees come for the education, but it turns in to an experience that keeps them coming back to the area. Moab, UT is home to a gold-tier night-sky park (Canyonlands National Park) with some of the darkest skies in the world. The location also includes Arches National Park, the Canyons and Cliffs of Dead Horse Point State Park, La Sal Mountains, and the breathtaking views of the Colorado River as it cuts through the massive sand stone rock.
