“Photographing the Public Gardens of Vancouver” is a hands-on workshop designed to elevate the quality of your photography through a unique combination of lectures/discussions, field photography and constructive image evaluations.
Whether you are interested in recording and documenting gardens, or creatively interpreting garden environments through photography, you will increase your knowledge and understanding of image making.
While a very basic knowledge of photography along with a working knowledge of your camera is desirable, any camera and lens combination will work.
Special Guest Presenter:
As a special feature, Fine Art Flower and Garden Photographer, Jessica Timberlake will be with us over the workshop weekend to contribute her views on photography as well as providing valuable insight with respect to constructively evaluating images that will augment my teaching.
Jessica is an internationally recognized photographer and artist, with art featured in galleries, resorts and private collections worldwide, from San Diego to Manhattan, and as far reaching as Croatia and Montenegro.
