This is not a classroom-style seminar,\u00a0<strong>you\u2019ll spend the entire time out on the trials, mountain biking and hiking<\/strong>, while hunting for good light until almost midnight under our late evening sunset and shooting a variety of action adventure sports, like hiking biking and trail running.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll learn how to look for and see potentially compelling photo ops while out on location. You\u2019ll learn firsthand how to gauge light, background and subject matter, and how to bring all of the elements together, quickly and efficiently, in order to create a successful, exciting shot. We\u2019ll also practice with off camera flash techniques and see how to add dynamic light to our subjects in order to make them pop.<\/p>\n<p>Run as organically as possible, with one session on mountain bikes, and one spent hiking in the Chugach Mountains,\u00a0<strong>(you can participate in either session or do the full two-day workshop)<\/strong>. We\u2019ll all work together and bounce ideas off of each other for maximum collaboration and the best possible outcome in every situation. Everyone will have input, and you\u2019ll even have the chance to lead the group with your own ideas during the exercises.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/alaskaphototreks.com\/action-sports-and-outdoor-flash-photography-workshop-with-dan-bailey-may-21-22-2016\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Click here for more info.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/alaskaphototreks.com\/midnight-sun-glacier-overnight-photography-workshop-with-dan-bailey-july-15-17-2016\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Midnight Sun Glacier Overnight Photography Workshop, July 15-17, 2016<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/alaskaphototreks.com\/midnight-sun-glacier-overnight-photography-workshop-with-dan-bailey-july-15-17-2016\/\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alaskaphototreks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/GLAC-AK-COLN-01157.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The key to great photography is great light, and in the summertime in Alaska, this means staying up late. REALLY late. During this special three-day outdoor photography workshop, you\u2019ll have the unique opportunity to<strong>camp outside in the heart of the Chugach Mountains and photograph glacier landscapes under the midnight sun.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll also have the chance to shoot a few aerial photos of the massive Knik Glacier from the helicopter that will fly us out to our camping spot by Lake George and the Colony Glacier. Also, you\u2019ll have the chance to kayak around the lake and see the icebergs from an amazing, intimate vantage point.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn1.buuteeq.com\/upload\/8394\/-mg-2470.jpg.694x390_0_58_3614.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"326\" height=\"188\" \/>Starting with a Friday evening photo presentation designed to prepare you for the subject matter and conditions we\u2019ll encounter during the next two days. You then spend the night in a rustic cabin perched on the hillside above the wide open Knik River valley.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.4em;\">Then, on Saturday, we\u2019ll all fly out to our location and spend the entire day and evening in the company of massive icebergs that have calved off from the terminus of Colony Glacier. In addition to being able to photograph these incredible icebergs from a relatively close vantage point, you\u2019ll have the chance to see them and then surrounding mountain landscape in the best possible light of the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Our camping guide service will provide all of the necessary camping gear and meals, as well as a selection of sea kayaks which you can use to explore the ice up close. The kayaks are very stable and they have a comfortable seat and a large cockpit, so they\u2019re easy to paddle. This could easily be one of the highlight of the trip!<\/p>\n<p>You might have seen some of my aerials and glacier photos, well this is where I shoot many of them. This is one of my favorite places to go in my little yellow bush plane. I\u2019ve been out here during magic hour, and in the middle of the night when the quality of the light is blue and yet there\u2019s still enough light to continue shooting, and I can tell you that it\u2019s simply magical.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m really looking forward to this one and I hope you can join me.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/alaskaphototreks.com\/midnight-sun-glacier-overnight-photography-workshop-with-dan-bailey-july-15-17-2016\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Click here for more info.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn1.buuteeq.com\/upload\/8394\/dsc01832.JPG.1340x450_default.JPG\" alt=\"\" width=\"1340\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have just added two new\u00a0photograph workshops for 2016,\u00a0one in May and one in July.
