The Great American Photography Workshops (GAPW) combines classroom lectures and critiques with hands-on in-the-field instruction designed to improve and enhance skills in photographic techniques and composition. Our locations are chosen to arouse both the soul and one’s creativity. They include some of our National treasures – our National Parks and Monuments – as well as lesser known but equally scenic and inspiring venues.
Our faculty come from the ranks of the finest nature photographers, teachers, naturalists, lecturers and workshop leaders in the profession. Here you will find professionals willing - and eager - to share their vast knowledge with you whether it’s the mechanics of equipment operation, the artistry of effective composition, the habits and activities of wildlife or the natural history of our environment. They are equally eager to share their concern and sensitivity for environment and habitat preservation. The majority of the images you see on the following pages were taken by amateurs - GAPW participants - who, we’re proud to say, have benefited from our faculty’s instruction.
Our 2008 schedule includes some perennial favorites and some new locations as well; all chosen so that you can be there at the best time of the year. And, whether you shoot print film, slides, or digital, our Digital Photography Workflow Workshop series will show you how to make prints fit for a gallery.
Finally, all of our events include an honest critique of your work. Regardless of the medium you use - digital or film - our goal is to provide unique shooting opportunities, help you become a better photographer and ensure you have fun doing it.
