Join Craig Tanner in beautiful Grand Teton National Park for 6 days of field shooting, image critique, and instruction in Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom techniques. Craig has taught in the Tetons for a number of years and will take you to some of his favorite places to photograph.
We will photograph some of the Grand Teton’s classic locations in beautiful light, such as Schwabacher Landing, Mormon Barns, Oxbow Bend, as well as many other lesser known, yet still stunning locations. Presentations cover traditional topics such as exposure and composition, and digital darkroom techniques for post processing your images. In the field instruction and daily critique of work shot during the workshop using a digital projector are a major focus of the week.
The general schedule for this workshop is shooting sessions in the early morning for sunrise and in the evening for sunset. There are classroom sessions for lecture and/or image critique during the day, as well as a lab for assistance with selection your images and with the use of Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom. The schedule is flexible and dependent on weather. As the days are long, we plan to have one morning off in the middle of the week, and breaks during the day each dayof the workshop.

Testimonials
"The workshop in the Tetons gave me an opportunity to focus upon my strengths and areas of opportunity by working with Craig and the others in the class who love photography. The structure of the class creates an environment where you are not intimidated by what you do or do now know. You want to share your work because you know the feedback will be positive and given with only one motive -- to make you the best possible photographer. I would say my photography skills are at the beginner level but I truly enjoyed the workshop and am looking forward to taking another on in the near future" -- Stennis S (Teton National Park workshop 2009)
“When I was trying to decide whether to go on the Tetons National Park workshop, I read what many people had written, such as “my life has been changed”…. Yeah right, I thought! There was no way I could have imagined how much my photography could be improved in a single week! I can now count myself among those who say their life was changed after a single week on one of Craig Tanner’s workshop. I hope I can experience this feeling many more times.” -- Tom C. (Tetons National Park workshop 2007).
