Thursday, January 8th - FREE ZOOM CALL: How to Properly Plan a Photography Shoot 6:00pm-7:30pm
On this call we will go over steps that will help you plan a successful one day or multi-day photography shoot, even if the weather doesn't cooperate! We will discuss gear, locations, weather apps, budgeting your time and more.
Saturday, January 10th - WORKSHOP:
Snoqualmie Falls/Long Exposures 9-12pm
We will be meeting at the main upper, Snoqualmie Falls lookout at 9am and go through some instruction. I will teach about settings for long exposures to make silky smooth waters, we will talk about compositions, focal ranges and more. After photographing from both overlooks, we will then head down to the lower falls viewpoint for more compositions of the falls and river. If we have time, we will head over to Borst Lake to photograph the lake and the view of Mt. Si.
A tripod is required for this workshop. You cannot do long exposures without it. Extra gear if you have it: polarizer filter, ND (Solid Neutral Density) Filters, and/or GND (Graduated Neutral Density Filters). I will send out a full list of gear when I receive your registration! My workshops are always low key, friendly and completely encouraging! This is a great way to learn a new photography skill or to practice an old one! This workshop will be limited to 6 people so that I can work one on one with each of you!
After the workshop, we will follow up with a zoom call to go over photos we took, ask questions, get feedback and gentle critiques if you would like!

Sunrise at the Daffodil or Tulip Fields, Skagit Valley 5:45am-7:45am
We will meet at a determined location (not in one of the paid fields) to photograph the sun coming up behind the mountains with the fields in the foreground! Even if there is no golden light, we will hope for fog! A wide angle/landscape lens or a telephoto lens (like a 28-200mm, etc.) will work. A tripod is a must! If you have any filters like a polarizer or graduated neutral density filters, feel free to bring those too! After the sun comes up, feel free to head into one of the big gardens to keep shooting or just drive around the valley looking for compositions to photograph!
