Join our photography workshop in charming New Hampshire and Vermont. People come from all over the world to see the gorgeous foliage of northern New England. The riot of colors against the deep green conifers, along with quaint New England villages, farms, and covered bridges make great subject matter. We'll take in little-known locations that are favorites of The Barefoot Contessa, a native of this area. We'll have some of these places all to ourselves, and you'll be able to celebrate your passion for photography, hone your seeing and imaging skills, and learn about the magic of light to make wonderful photographs.We'll be based near Dartmouth College in the beautiful Connecticut River Valley in central-western New Hampshire. Northern New England is also a geological treasure trove. For the initiated, you will recognize many features that you have studied — moraines, upheavals, intrusions, even rare granite that is usually hidden deep in the core of a mountain. For others, you will find that the varied landscape will be interesting subject matter to photograph.

We start out with some technical information before heading out for our first afternoon of photography. Our workshops include the following:

Maximum 6-to-1 ratio students to instructors
Opening wine-and-pizza reception;
Primer booklet to help you get started;
Early-morning and late-afternoon shoots;
Mid-day downloading of your images and processing with the latest version of Lightroom 2;
Printing element with step-by-step instructions for printing straight from Lightroom 2;
Lots of individual instruction in both the field and classroom;
Critiques, both individual and group;
Discussions on various aspects of photography, including digital workflow;
Final group critique and show on last day;

A large, archival Epson print to either take home with you or to be mailed to you; and
Lots of fun and frivolity throughout!

If you have not already done so, be sure to check our FAQs for questions you may have as well as equipment and installed downloads you need to bring to the workshop including, if necessary, the free, 30-day, trial versions of Adobe products. In our print element, our instructors will give you the ins and outs of successfully and easily turning your favorite digital images into beautiful prints straight out of the latest version of Lightroom 2. In fact, in all our domestic workshops, you will end up taking home a lovely, large, archival print of one of your workshop photographs made with Epson paper and inks.Cost: $980 To sign up, fill out the Application Form, and for the answers to most questions you might have, including what to expect and what to bring, go to our FAQs page.
