Sorry guys, this is a ladies-only retreat.  

This is NOT a full workshop but instead a weekend digital getaway where you can learn about photography and unwind all at the same time.  After all, the Excelsior House has welcomed travelers since the late 1850's.  Join the like of Ulysses S. Grant, Oscar Wilde and Lady Bird Johnson when you sign the guest register in this charming East Texas hotel.  What better place for a workshop could there be?

Even thought he time is shorter than my standard workshops, we'll still pack in plenty of learning.  The exact agenda will depend greatly on what you want to learn - just let me know.  On the agenda will be a variety of photographic techniques including using camera flash, creative exposure and Adobe Photoshop techniques.

  • Wine & cheese reception on Friday evening

  • Hands-on instruction

  • One-on-one instruction

  • Learn about digital flash - indoors & outdoors

  • Working with mixed lighting - white balance, light balance

  • Taming your camera's metering systems

  • Compositional rules for creating powerful imagery

  • Digital workflow - what files, software, etc for the best workflow

  • Awesome tricks in Photoshop - turning ordinary into awesome

  • Critique session - Evaluation of your own work

  • Know your gear - learn what lenses & tools are best for the images you want to create.

You'll feel like you're a world away from the city when you're actually only an short distance away from the DFW metroplex. 

So plan now to join us for a little wine and cheese - oh, we'll talk about photography too.
