| "Having done several workshops in the past I can safely say that this was the most enjoyable and beneficial. You really provide individualized attention in the field and in the classroom." -M. Levin (previous participant) |
Joel Wolfson has been teaching photography since 1985 and enjoys sharing his experience and skills with his workshop participants. He conveys these in an easy to understand manner. Joel also loves to travel and thoroughly researches locations before organizing workshops and insists on very small groups to provide individual attention. |
Barb Satink Wolfson, our naturalist guide, received her Master’s Degree in Forest Ecology. She was a backcountry ranger with the National Park Service where she conducted interpretive courses, led Junior Ranger programs and educated park visitors about the environment. |
WORKSHOPS and SEMINARS
Unlike most workshops we focus on individual attention and keep our groups very small, typically 8-10 participants or fewer. Our naturalist accompanies us on location so you can learn more than photography if you wish. We offer photography and digital imaging workshops throughout the year both at our studio in Flagstaff and around the world. We also offer photo guiding and private workshops. |
| “I wish I had asked you 10 times as many stupid questions, now that I know you answer them all with patience and eloquence.” -M. Cook (previous participant) |
