ABOUT THE WORKSHOPS & TOURS

Instructional photo tours are a great way to combine a love of photography and travel, while improving your photography at the same time. We put you in great places at the right time, and build in ample time for you to immerse yourself in a place to make pictures that speak to you. We love unscheduled stops! Our “tours” minimize classroom time and emphasize being out photographing. We’ll always provide hands-on help and answer your questions to help you make images you’ll cherish for years to come. In our workshops, we still go to great places but build in more image review and classroom time. Tours & workshops are both aimed towards intermediate and advanced photographers. Join with other enthusiastic photographers for some fun and great photo opportunities! Scroll page for additional information.

Taking you places that stir the imagination and helping you make great pictures while you’re there!

Upcoming Workshops

Yosemite in Spring

Yosemite in Spring

Early May, the dogwood bracts are emerging, their glowing white shapes gently floating on bare trees. The Merced River, swollen with snow melt, courses through the valley, often overflowing its banks to create ephemeral 'lakes' with incredible reflections. Bleeding hearts bloom, and other small wildflowers are bursting forth, beneath the timeless beauty of the iconic rocks of the valley. During a full moon, the base of Yosemite Falls offers moonbows in the mist. Join us for a wonder-filled experience at a magical time of year. Scroll page for additional information.

UMBRIA, ITALY

Umbria

Rolling fields are punctuated by hilltop medieval towns, and sleepy villages are tucked between vineyards and olive groves. Join Brenda and Jed on this photo tour through Tuscany's 'rustic' sister. We'll photograph the countryside and in Orvieto, Spello, Assisi, Perugia and Gubbio, along with smaller villages in between, photographing the daily life of people and the quintessential Italian scene. We'll also take in our favorite area of Tuscany, too, the Pienza region. Scroll page for additional information.

The Palouse Hills in Spring

The Palouse Hills - Washington

Springtime is beautiful as the new crops carpet the hills, combined with freshly plowed earth, and the canola blooms here and there adding a splash of bright yellow to the scene. Old barns, fences, views of undulating fields of green, intimate scenes along the roadsides and the country towns of Palouse, Garfield, Colfax and more provide incredible photo opportunities.
