Join our digital photography workshop on our own wild and pristine North Carolina barrier islands. By popular demand, we have added a springtime Outer Banks workshop, right in our own back yard. We will show you special gems along this untamed coastline we love so well. The sunrises and sunsets can be spectacular, the patterns along the seashore and in the marshes inspirational, and the sights and sounds of the wild Atlantic pounding the coast intoxicating. You'll love photographing here!

For this workshop, we will be based in Nags Head, near the site of the first flight by the Wright Brothers. It is an area rich in history, so there is no lack of subject matter.The sunrises and sunsets can be spectacular, the patterns along the seashore and in the marshes inspirational, and the sights and sounds of the wild Atlantic pounding the coast intoxicating.

Springtime here is quite different from the fall. The Outer Banks are almost deserted; the winter winds have tossed the dunes around into new formations; and the coast looks particularly wild and dramatic. We'll pretty much have the place to ourselves!

At each of our photo adventures, we start out with some technical information before heading out for our first afternoon of photography. Our workshops include the following:

Maximum 6-to-1 ratio students to instructors
Opening wine-and-pizza reception;
Primer booklet to help you get started;
Early-morning and late-afternoon shoots;
Mid-day processing and tweaking your images with Photoshop and Lightroom;
Epson printing element with a booklet of step-by-step instructions;
Lots of individual instruction in both the field and classroom;
Critiques, both individual and group;
Discussions on various aspects of photography, including digital workflow;
Final group critique and show; and
Lots of fun and frivolity throughout!

In our print element, our instructors will show you the ins and outs of successfully and easily turning your favorite digital images into stunning prints using a high-quality Epson printer. In fact, in all our domestic workshops, you will end up making a lovely, large, archival print of one of your workshop photographs made with Epson paper and inks to take home with you.

Remember, our tag line reads, "Create great photos; make great prints!"

If you have not already done so, check our FAQs for questions you may have as well as equipment and installed downloads you need to bring to the workshop including, if necessary, the free, 30-day, trial versions of the Adobe products.
