"Eddie is a gentle, but rigorous, instructor. His workshop gave me the courage and inspiration to continue!" Patricia Tierney Alofsin, former workshop participant

At the heart of any good photograph is a passion for the subject, and the artist’s ability to capture it with a unique vision. If you love photographing the outdoors, yet find that your images still look like pretty postcards, join Eddie Soloway for an intense week of viewing the natural world with fresh, new eyes. This workshop develops your natural eye first, and then improves your technical skills to match your vision. You spend as much time immersing yourself in nature, sharpening your senses and changing your perspective as you do on developing new photographic skills.

Northern New Mexico comes alive in summer. The high aspen forests are dotted with wildflowers that show off a wild palette of purples, greens, oranges, and chalky whites. The end-of-day light casts a clarity that has long been a magnet for photographers, writers, and painters. Our week of outdoor experiences in this diverse environment take you through key steps to enriching your photographs of the natural world, as you find yourself focusing less on objects and things, and more on the magic of moments and the essence of places.

Join Eddie for an inspiring blend of technical lessons, daily image reviews, one-on-one meetings, and eye-opening outdoor adventures. As you hear more and touch more, you begin to photograph with more sensitivity, patience, and serenity.
