Photography as Storytelling
Photography isn’t just about mastering technical settings—it’s about seeing, feeling, and telling a story. A compelling image conveys emotion and meaning, even if it’s not perfectly exposed or sharply focused.
In my classes, we go beyond the fundamentals to explore how light, composition, and subject matter shape visual narratives. Whether you’re capturing the quiet beauty of a landscape, the energy of a city, or an intimate moment, I’ll help you refine your storytelling voice and develop a unique visual language.
If you’re ready to move beyond snapshots and create intentional, meaningful work, my workshops and classes are for you.
All photographers are welcome—whether you shoot digital, film, or even just want to sketch ideas in a pad. The goal is to learn and refine how you see.
Please Note: Accessibility varies for photography hikes; details will be provided when available.
