PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOPS
I've been a staff instructor for the Adirondack Photography Institute (API) for more than seventeen years, leading nature and digital photography workshops and retreats. I also lead private workshops on my own. My programs cover the technical aspects of using digital cameras, and the artistry of nature photography, delving deep into the art of seeing and compositional techniques. I also teach the fine art of processing images in the digital darkroom, including digital workflow and image optimization in Lightroom and Photoshop. I'm a renowned specialist in night photography, and also teach panorama stitching, HDR imaging, focus stacking, and multiple exposure blending using layer and luminosity masking.
My 2025 workshops are listed below, with course descriptions, field locations, availability and pricing. If you'd like to be notified as events are scheduled, please sign up for my contact list.
I also do private instruction for individuals and small groups — in the field and in processing. See the Private Instruction page for details.

THE WORKSHOP EXPERIENCE
Collaboration. Inspiration. Fun.
With personalized, stimulating field sessions and dynamic presentations, I teach photographers the artistic possibilities beyond their preconceptions, to expand their creative repertoire and produce imagery from the heart. The goals are not only to help each participant create beautiful images during a workshop, but equip them with the tools to do so afterwards. It's a collaborative approach to the craft — all about information... inspiration... and fun!
PRIVATE INSTRUCTION
Camera Settings. Image Processing. Portfolio Reviews.
Private photography instruction customized to your skill level can be one of the most efficient ways to take your photography to new artistic heights. I offer private lessons in the field and in the digital darkroom, tailored to each individual. I also provide professional critiquing sessions on-line. For details visit the Private Instruction page.
SEMINARS FOR CAMERA CLUBS & CONFERENCES
I also offer intensive half-day, full-day and weekend seminars for camera clubs and conferences. These events can be customized to your group's needs. For more information, see the Seminars page. To inquire about an event for your group, please contact me.
