The goal for this workshop is to move you forward in your pursuit of photography. I understand the feeling of not knowing where to go or what to do next. I've been there. We all have. So we're really going to target those questions over the course workshop as well as teach you as much as possible about planning, shooting on location, composition, lighting, post production and whatever else we can cover.
