TDS Hot air balloon photography workshop
TDS Hot air balloon photography workshop

We begin by meeting for an informal gathering and class on Friday evening, June 25. During that session we’ll prepare for our first morning shoot at Keiser Park in Windsor where the Hot Air Balloon Classic is held. After a delicious Wine Country lunch, we’ll head over to class at The Digital Story headquarters in Santa Rosa, where we will focus on camera technique and prepare for our Dawn Patrol shoot on Sunday morning. This is where you’ll be able to photograph the balloons on the ground as the sun breaks the horizon.
After our Sunday lunch, we’ll return to TDS HQ once again for more classroom work with emphasis on how to maximize the impact of the images you captured in the field.
The workshop concludes on Monday morning with a camera clinic, informal discussion, and good-byes.
This will be a personalized experience with class size limited to 6 participants. I will answer your questions using your equipment. We’ll also have lots of fun.
So please join me for one of the most unique and satisfying photography experiences available today.
countdown to class!
