Great Places for Great Photos
Let me help you to find a great location for your next photography adventure. I will list many lesser known destinations, as well as the famous “Icon Locations” for photography. I will provide photos (Lots of Photos), location information, consisting of what there is to photograph as well as other information about the destination. I will give costs, maps, directions, contact information, and other essential information for a successful photo trip. I will only post for locations that I have personally photographed to insure a quality guide to great locations for photography.
The Fort Worth Stockyards now celebrates Fort Worth’s long tradition as a part of the cattle industry and was listed on the National Register as a historical district in 1976. The listing included 46 contributing buildings and one other contributing structure.

Join me for a photography tour and workshop on the best of the west of Route 66 across Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. The trip will be 10 days and 9 nights and travel over 1000 miles of history. We will have time to stop and photograph many locations bypassed by other Route 66 Photo Workshops and Tours, since we will only travel a little over 125 miles per day on average.
I have been traveling and photographing Route 66 for the past 8 years, taken over 40,000 images, and have discovered many great photo locations to share with you. This trip will cover many of the great icons of the road, along with Ghost Towns, old gas stations, diners, and architecture of the past, either beautifully preserved or in near total ruins. The trip is about “Americana” and living the history of the Mainstreet of America.

Join me for a photography workshop in the Palouse region of southeast Washington state to photograph the extraordinary landscape often refereed to as the Tuscany of America. The Palouse Is a region of where there are no continuous valleys, and the hills do not connect to make long ridges. These hills were not created by rivers and streams, as is most of our landscape, but formed more like sandunes, with winds depositing silt to form of some of the most fertile soil in the country.
The natural form of the land gives unique form, shape, and shadows. Add to this the lines and patterns of farming, a great deal of color, and you have the recipe for great photography. This time of year the Palouse offers rolling hills of green wheat, yellow flowering canola, and pea and lentil for as far as the eye can see. Toss in an old weathered red barn, a grain silo, and an old truck and you have picture perfect rural America.
Cost $1395 Lodging included

Apostle Islands - Sea Caves
September 10-15
This is a workshop designed to provide you with an incredible photo experience combined hands on digital processing of your images with Adobe Lightroom.
The workshop will include a chartered boat trip to photograph the Apostle Islands Sea Caves from up close and personal. Centuries of wave action, freezing, and thawing have sculpted shorelines throughout the Apostles. Some of the Great Lakes’ most spectacular scenery occurs where nature has carved delicate arches, vaulted chambers, and hidden passageways into sandstone of the Devils Island Formation.
We will cover very basic info and some advanced techniques, as well as cover how to get out of automatic, and into creative photography. You will learn many creative photography techniques, correct exposure and good composition. Learn to transfer your images to the computer and basic digital workflow. There will be multiple location photo shoots, followed by image post processing techniques and digital workflow with image review and critique sessions.
Registration is limited to 5 participants

If you are looking for a great opportunity to get personal individual instruction I do private workshops and classes at a location of your choice, whether doing a location photo shoot or coming to your home or business. This is a great way to learn digital workflow and be sure that your computer equipment is properly configured for optimum performance.
I will be offering more private and semi-private travel workshops due to high degree of personal attention that participants receive and I find this to be the most effective and enjoyable way to learn photography. This gives a chance to work on the entire process from capture to image workflow and post processing all at a pace and level for the attendee, photographing what and where they want. These workshops can be organized for 1 to 4 people on short notice, contact me about doing your dream trip.
Benefits of Private Instruction
- Personalized Instruction
- Flexible Scheduling
- Concentrate on what you want to learn
- A pace that works for you
