Photographers of all levels will enjoy this informative and fun multi-day workshop! Indulge in the seasonal beauty of autumn in Yosemite Valley, where you can take advantage of smaller crowds, colorful foliage and soft light to capture gallery-worthy images.
Your instructors — two professional photographers with years of experience capturing Yosemite scenes — will share insider tips and offer guidance to help you develop your personal style. Whether focusing your lens on majestic natural icons or individual oak leaves, you’ll learn to work with natural light and shadow, find fresh angles on famous subjects, and use new techniques to make your photos stand out.
All camera types (digital or film) are welcome!
