BLACK FRIDAY SPECIAL - SAVE $500 IF YOU REGISTER BY DECEMBER 6!
Join me for some of the best AND EASIEST bird photography anywhere! This is the time of year when some of the most beautiful birds like Roseate Spoonbills, Great Egrets, Snowy Egrets, and several species of Herons arrive in their breeding plumage.
AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE BLACK FRIDAY SPECIAL DISCOUNT. SIMPLY REGISTER BY DECEMBER 6 AND SAVE $500!
Don’t miss this opportunity to save a bundle while you photograph a wide variety of beautiful birds. They will be sporting their incredible breeding plumage while they work on finding a mate, nest building, and raising chicks. And all of this will be happening right before our eyes at eye-level!
We will be in a private rookery that is beautifully designed with walkways that put us at tree-top level with the birds. The birds are used to people and are unafraid. This provides us with the best chances of getting close-up shots, and no super long lenses are needed. All birds are truly wild, but are not bothered by our presence.
We will have special early access to the rookery before it opens to the public. And it is a short, easy walk into and around the rookery. Superb bird photography does not get any better, or any easier, than this!
In addition to the birds, there will opportunities to photograph sunrises on the nearby beach, and to visit historic St; Augustine which bills itself as America’s Oldest City. It is the home of significant landmarks like Castillo de San Marcos, Flagler College, the Lightner Museum and more.
Your workshop fee includes:
early entry and quiet time photographing the birds before the area opens to the public
personalized instruction every step of the way
all entry fees
image critiques, and teaching sessions on Lightroom and Photoshop during our week together
a pre-workshop live online training session to give you in-depth tips on camera settings, creative ideas, and much more
private mentoring depending on your needs and time available

a full-immersion week to improve your bird photography and your creative skills
in-depth education and inspiration each and every day
