Two Evening Workshop
Prepare to immerse yourself in the nocturnal wonders of St. Paul and Minneapolis across two captivating evenings. Unlike other workshops, we don’t just snap and dash; we linger, ensuring ample time for hands-on learning and polishing your newfound skills.
Throughout our field sessions, we’ll unravel the mysteries of night photography – from mastering camera modes to fine-tuning focus and selecting the right gear. With a cozy group of five, you’ll receive personalized guidance tailored to your unique journey.
For the first evening, we’ll gather and collectively visit some well-known, and not so well-known, spots around St. Paul.
The second evening will find us doing the same type of work, just in Minneapolis. There will be a set of locations that provide unique vantages of the city.
Carpooling is optional. I will provide a list of locations and approximate times we will arrive.
Essential Gear
To embark on this enchanting journey, you’ll need:
A trusty dSLR, mirrorless camera, or even your cellular phone
