\"Knik15Header\"<\/a>I’m excited to announce my first workshop offering for 2015, my\u00a0Knik Glacier Winter Photography Workshop<\/a>, which is\u00a0scheduled for the weekend of March 20-22 here in Alaska.<\/p>\n

Over the two-night weekend of the spring equinox,\u00a0you’ll have the\u00a0chance to explore\u00a0one of\u00a0the most amazing and rugged locations that Southcentral Alaska has to offer, the\u00a0glaciers and winter landscapes of the Knik River valley and the Chugach Mountains<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Due to its close proximity to Anchorage, the Knik valley offers an incredible opportunity for photography and aerial exploration of incredible scenery without having to travel very\u00a0far. I’ve shot out here\u00a0extensively. You’ve probably seen a number\u00a0of my photos from this location, I’ve ridden out to the glacier on my fat tire snow bike and I fly out there quite a bit in my little Cessna 120 bush plane.<\/p>\n

This is your chance\u00a0to experience the very same thing- During our “big day”,\u00a0we<\/strong>\u2019ll fly\u00a0out to\u00a0the glaciers by helicopter<\/strong>, which will give you the chance to shoot amazing glacier aerials on the way out and back. We’ll\u00a0also spend a number of\u00a0hours on the ground to intimately explore and photograph these otherworldly landscapes of ice and rock. Of course, I’ll be right there with you, providing full,\u00a0personal\u00a0instruction and teaching you the ins and outs of winter landscape photography.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Weather permitting, you\u2019ll have the chance to catch the late afternoon warm winter Alaska light on the Chugach Mountains, which is simply awesome this time of year. By this time, we’re back up to nearly 12 hours per day, so we’ll have lots of time for shooting. We can even focus on doing some action photography if people are interested.<\/p>\n

After the sun goes down, we’ll\u00a0do some \u201cnight sky photography\u201d as well. Hopefully you’ll be able to capture the aurora borealis if the Northern\u00a0Lights are out. If the skies\u00a0don’t cooperate, we’ll focus on light painting and other slow shutter speed photography styles.<\/p>\n

The last\u00a0day will be geared around shooting winter landscapes and other subjects near the lodge with more personal instruction from me. \u00a0You\u2019ll also have some time\u00a0to edit and show your glacier photos from the day before during our final\u00a0instructional presentation and critique session. We’ll\u00a0actually have a couple of evening presentations during the course of the weekend where I’ll share some of the\u00a0technical and creative methods I like to use\u00a0in my photography.<\/p>\n

During the workshop, we’ll be based at the\u00a0Knik River Lodge,<\/a>\u00a0where you\u2019ll\u00a0stay in one of the deluxe and enjoy\u00a0comfortable cabins\u00a0in a beautiful wilderness setting with\u00a0classic meals done Alaska style. This is a really cool place with nice amenities and a very rustic feel, and it’s situated right above the massive river bar that runs out of the bottom\u00a0of the Knik glacier.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I’m\u00a0super\u00a0excited about this workshop- it’s\u00a0something I’ve\u00a0wanted to do for a long time. Essentially it’s my opportunity to share with you the amazing glacier stoping grounds that have captured my fascination\u00a0ever since I\u00a0started flying in Alaska. It offers you the chance to capture some\u00a0absolutely stunning images\u00a0in this\u00a0otherworldly\u00a0location in a way that you may never\u00a0get to see otherwise.<\/span><\/p>\n

Limited Space Available<\/a>\u00a0– Only 4\u00a0spots left!<\/h2>\n

Please note that since we’re\u00a0limited by how many seats our\u00a0helicopters can carry,\u00a0this workshop\u00a0only has 7 spots available<\/strong>, so if you’re interested,\u00a0be sure and sign up now.<\/a>\u00a0You can even reserve your spot with a deposit. \u00a0The trip is\u00a0being run through\u00a0Alaska Photo Treks<\/a>, so visit the\u00a0official workshop page<\/a>\u00a0to see all the\u00a0details regarding pricing, gear, clothing, etc.<\/p>\n

I sincerely\u00a0hope that you can\u00a0join me – Please let me know if you have any\u00a0questions.<\/p>\n
