Our Workshops

See landscapes, wildlife, and more!

We offer workshops that highlight areas of East Tennessee, Florida, Alaska, Wyoming, and New England. Each workshop is unique in its own way with wildlife ranging from black bears, elk, and owls to landscapes such as sunrises, waterfalls, lighthouses, and covered bridges.

Lighthouses Workshop

Join this one of a kind tour and see lighthouses from the 1800s like never before.

This workshop will include both land and sea shots as well as shots captured while aboard a helicopter. 

Snowy Owl Workshop

Our Snowy Owl Workshop is our longest running workshop.  It started during the irruption migration year of 2013 when many Snowy Owls came down from the Arctic. In addition to Snowy Owls, many other raptors and birds are photographed in a winter landscape.
