One-on-One and Private Small Group Lake Superior Photography Workshops

The Lake Superior shoreline along Minnesota’s north shore and the Boundary Waters are among the most scenic locations in North America for landscape photography. The granite and basalt cliffs offer natural leading lines and interesting jagged breaks and cracks that work well for picture’s foregrounds. The Sawtooth Mountains work as great backgrounds. The lake is almost always on the move, so you can capture interesting waves. It’s a great place to take Lake Superior Photography Workshops or get individual photography instruction. I offer both. These 1:1 and small group photography workshops happen in the Grand Marais area.

Before booking contact me to verify availability.

Location: Grand Marais, Minnesota

Pricing:

Half-day: $400 for one person and $100 for each additional person.

Time:

Half-day: A four-hour session starting with a sunrise or ending with a sunset.
Full-day: We meet before the sunrise and shoot for eight hours or shoot eight hours leading up to sunset. In the winter, that might mean that we shoot both the sunrise and sunset. Total lesson time runs eight hours.

What You Will Learn

I think photography workshops need to accomplish a few things:

  1. You need to learn how to use your camera better.
  2. You need to learn how to see and capture photos better.
  3. They need to take place in beautiful locations.
  4. They must be fun.

By combining those four aspects, I set up a learning experience that helps you capture stunning photos during the photo class. When you leave, you’ll have the knowledge to do it on your own. During my individual and small group Lake Superior Photography Workshops, I tailor the lesson plans to you. If you need to learn about depth-of-field to get everything in focus or to blur the background or how to make waterfalls look silky or how to freeze the motion of a wave, the workshop will teach you those things. If you don’t understand white balance, ISO, file sizes, camera buttons, then by the time the workshop is over you will. I also help you see photos while along the jaw-dropping Lake Superior shoreline, and then I teach you techniques to translate those scenes into a stunning photo. Plus, I keep everything fun!

Notes
