Taos New Mexico Photography Workshops 2019

Hey all! I’m running Taos New Mexico Photography workshops for 2019 in conjunction with Taos Print and Photography Services.

UPDATED December 14, 2019

All workshops are structured to support basic skills and advance individual techniques in both settings and composition. Our experienced guides put you in the New Mexico and Southern Colorado locations where you can explore your vision and get the images you won’t find on your own. Workshops typically run from 8:30AM to 5:30PM, and include healthy snacks, water, and historical information on the Rio Grande valley and surrounding mountains. Participants are expected to bring their own lunches and to dress appropriately for the weather. Weather changes rapidly in northern New Mexico, be prepared. To sign up, contact either myself or Gak Stonn at info@taosprint.com

SPECIAL!  5 pass $1500 – 4 workshops and 1 private all day instruction, 10 pass $2500 – 8 workshops and 2 all day private instruction
