Explore Charleston with the Locals
Spring is by far, the BEST time to visit Charleston, SC. The majority of the workshop will be held in the field to make the most of your time here. We'll be heading to the best locations at the perfect times around the Charleston area. This is going to be so much more than a "tour". We’ll be helping you with your camera settings, exposure, understanding the histogram, and many more technical aspects of photography. We'll have all the time we need to concentrate on composition and light. This is the area that most photographers struggle with, and yet, spend the least amount of time practicing. Weather will dictate our exact itinerary. All attendees will receive a FREE copy of my E-Book "Composition For The Landscape Photographer" after the workshop has concluded. Join us for several days of fun and learning in one of the most beautiful locations in the southeast.
Registration processed via Corsizio and payments through Stripe. Processing fees are applied. You may avoid fees by contacting Kate to send a check in the mail. Simply contact Kate HERE and she can manually add you to the workshop when payment is received.
We have reserved a block of rooms at the Hyatt Place near the Coliseum. Our classroom sessions will be held here but you may stay anywhere you wish. Click HERE For the Booking Link.

We have no specific recommendations for insurance. That is a personal decision.
