ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP

This workshop will last 5 days and 4 nights along the stunning coastline of Cape Cod National Seashore. It will be filled with starry nights and stunning scenic views. We will have the opportunity to capture many of the iconic lighthouses under the milky way with in depth discussions on how to create compelling scenic compositions during the day, and at night.  We will have plenty of time to review images and do post processing while we grab a couple lobsta rolls by the ocean!

 

FIRST ENCOUNTER BEACHFIRST ENCOUNTER BEACH

 

We will take a boat ride out one day to Long Point Lighthouse where we will spend a couple of hours capturing this iconic lighthouse while the seasons first wildflowers begin to blooming adding a nice splash of color to the landscape.

 

 

Each evening we will regroup and head out for our sunset and milky way photo sessions at lighthouses and other scenic locations in Cape Cod. During the day, we will have a mix of relax time, and editing sessions as we prepare for each evening / night shoot.
