Landscape and Panorama Workshop- Fall of 2024

You would think landscape photography would be easy. Find a pretty spot and take a photo; but I find A great landscape to be one of the most challenging photographs to create.

Join me in Lodi for a two day workshop to learn about the challenges of taking a great scenic photo. We’ll also explore taking panoramic photos. One of my favorite techniques to capture the landscapes of the Midwest.

Macro and Detail Workshop- Spring 2024

This workshop is looking at focusing on the small things. Macro and detail images are a great photographic tool to have in your toolbox. I’ll demonstrate some Macro photography with the prairie plants on the beautiful Lodi Marsh Segment of the Ice Age Trail. Focusing on the smaller things opens up a whole new way to view the world in addition to capturing the wide vistas in nature photography.
