We have two upcoming extended flower photography workshops this summer, one in Berkeley later this month, and one in Maine the first week of August:
- Flower Photography Intensive: 4-Day Masterclass in Flower Photography—click here for details and registration, 4-day workshop in Berkeley, CA., June 22-25, 2017
- Photographing Flowers for Transparency at Maine Media Workshop, July 31 – August 5, 2017; click here for details and registration.
Both workshops will be a great deal of fun, and cover my light box techniques as well as other topics (see the partial list below). If you are interested in my unique approaches, this is your chance: I do not expect to lead intensive flower photography workshops again for at least a year.
Topics covered in each of these extended flower photography workshops will include:
- Floral arrangement and composition
- Botanical art in the digital era
- Shooting florals in the field
- Creative field techniques
- Best practices in macro photography
- Shooting flowers on a dark background
- Shooting on a light box
