Full or Partial Workshop Registration
This area of the Canadian Rockies, away from the crowds of the National Parks, is a true gem and provides stunning photo opportunities especially in the fall. From awe-inspiring vistas and glacial blue waters, to vibrant foliage, intimate details, and dark skies, there will be no shortage of photographic subjects and inspiration.
We will meet in Nordegg in the morning and then head out to explore various locations along Abraham Lake throughout the day. After a dinner break we will go out for sunset and a night shoot and hope for clear starry skies! You can expect a late evening and then an early morning as we capture the sunrise together. You will receive expert and personalized guidance throughout the entire workshop to improve your technical and creative photography skills. You will go home with fresh inspiration, new knowledge, beautiful images, and great memories.
