Photography Workshops & Creative Learning
Apart from photography itself, one of my greatest pleasures is sharing my passion and knowledge of photography with others.
Over the course of a career spanning more than three decades, I’ve enjoyed presenting workshops on a variety of photographic subjects to groups of aspiring photographers, as well as offering one-on-one instruction.
Drawing on this experience, my workshops combine practical instruction, demonstrations, and an opportunity to explore both the technical and creative aspects of photography. Whether you're just beginning to explore photography, looking to develop your existing skills, or an artist wanting to photograph your own work, there’s an opportunity to learn and experiment in a welcoming environment.
