The Oregon coast provides wonderful opportunities to photograph a variety of coastal scenes, including beaches, sea stacks, arches, sandstone rock formations, and tide pools.

In this workshop we’ll focus on trying to capture the mood of these rugged landscapes, and help you tap into your creativity, your eye for composition, and your visual imagination. You’ll learn how to identify and isolate the most essential elements of a scene, and apply fundamental concepts like balance and repetition. We’ll also get creative with long exposures of waves and ocean scenes in order to add an ethereal mood to the images.

Please note that this workshop requires some hiking. Hikes will be relatively short, but sometimes very steep, with up to a 400-foot elevation gain on the way back. Also, getting to our photo locations may require climbing over steep, rough, rocky, uneven terrain, clambering over unsteady driftwood logs, or descending steep, muddy, slippery trails. Please see the workshop FAQ page for more details.

This workshop will concentrate on the southern Oregon coast, including the famous Bandon sea stacks, and Samuel H. Boardman Scenic Corridor. It should be a lot of fun, so I hope you’ll join us!
