Fee:  $725 Per Session

In this family-friendly workshop, Paws Up Artist in Residence, Stuart Thurlkill will teach how to best photograph landscapes, wildlife and other features of the great outdoors. You and your kids will learn expert tips and techniques in a brief tutorial, then venture out into the field with Stuart to take photos from a panoramic viewpoint. Bring your camera, or feel free to use the one on your phone.

Give your kids (and yourself) the chance to explore the world from a bird's (or a worm's) point of view. Participants will gain a better understanding of light, composition and color, as well as a deep appreciation for nature.
