This class is annual favorite which this year is coordinated for maximum star power!   This year, we’re going to be learning light painting, and I’ve just added a new technique, Bracketing for HDR during the sunset part of our shoot.  Learn how to create that ICONIC sunburst sunflower field shot at sunset.

As the sun sets and we transition in to Blue Hour, we will begin painting the sunflowers with light and taking longer exposures. If done right, these exposures will not only illuminate the sunflowers but also reveal the stars!

This workshop should be a fun one for ALL skill levels from beginner to advanced/professional.
