Charleston Photography Workshop
|
There are few places in the US that can compete with Charleston in the springtime for photo opportunities. During the long weekend you’re here we will explore the lowcountry and photograph at several iconic locations, choosing from Magnolia Plantation and Audubon Swamp, Beidler Forest Adubon Sanctuary, Caw Caw Interpretive Center, Ravenel Bridge, and W. Ashley Greenway & Stono River Park (subject to change and availability). What's more, your leader is a full time professional wildlife photographer, photography workshop leader, and is a Coastal South Carolina Master Naturalist, so he can bring you a more knowledgeable natural history experience.

What we'll photograph
This time of year we’ll be hoping to see the plantation gardens starting to bloom, and combine that with the proliferation of birds and wildlife, photo ops, we’ll have a busy weekend. Plus, we’ll be experiencing the charm, hospitality, and restaurants that Charleston and the lowcountry are renowned for.
We’ll set aside time during the day to discuss technique and to assess how to improve your imagery.
What you'll learn:
We'll be using techniques to capture everything from landscapes to wildlife. You'll be learning how to use your camera's focus systems to capture fast moving objects, sometimes in low light. Changing ISO, shutter speeds, apertures and white balance to maximize your creativity and achieve technical accuracy, too. You'll also learn about composition, best practices for photographing wildlife, and if time and lack of sleep allows, we'll have image review sessions and a presentation or two.
What’s included:
- Individual instruction from a professional wildlife photographer and South Carolina Master Naturalist
- Image reviews, presentations, and editing suggestions if time allows
- Water
What’s NOT included:
- Park entrance fees
