New Workshop – Lupine Festival – Franconia, NH

I will be leading a very exciting two day workshop to the annual Lupine Festival in Franconia, NH on June 13 and 14.   The trip will be centered around the beautiful lupine that grow abundantly in the mountains of Franconia and Sugar Hill, NH.   We will photograph sweeping mountain views and quaint New England scenes adorned with lupine.   In addition we will explore a little bit of night photography including some basics on light painting.   This workshop will be a lot of fun and is open to all levels of photographers.   I hope you will join me for this fantastic rite of spring!

This workshop is run by the Mass Audubon North River Sanctuary.   The fee for the trip is $250 for members and $300 for non–members.   It includes lodging and ground transportation from the North River Sanctuary.   To register, please call the Mass Audubon North River Sanctuary at 781 837 9400.   For more information, you may visit this website:

Free Flower Photography Workshop at the Williams Trading Post

On Saturday, April 25, I will once again offer a free flower photography workshop at the Williams Trading Post in Middleboro.   The Williams Trading Post will have hundreds of colorful flowers that we can use to create beautiful images.   We will discuss a variety of techniques including macro photography, kaleidoscope zooming and a review of the basics including composition and exposure.   Tripods and macro lenses are helpful, but not necessary.  Photographers of all experience levels are welcome.

I hope you will consider joining me for an exciting photography adventure.   The workshop will begin at 10:30AM and run until we get tired of smelling the roses:)
