Tours, Private Study

I teach a variety of photographic techniques, from basic photography, digital photography and Hawaii Photo Tours to more specialized creative techniques, including digital infrared photography, beginning Photoshop for Photographers, creative Photoshop techniques including Topaz and Nik filters, fine art pigment inkjet printing, Fuji image  transfers, digital inkjet decal transfers, and hand coloring.

Hawaii photo tours can be arranged for when you are already coming to Hawaii, and can be from several hours to several days. I can take you  to breathtakingly beautiful and culturally significant places, depending on what you would like to see and photograph. There is such a variety of extraordinary landscapes, flora and fauna on this island, and having a personal guide can assure you of finding what you are looking for. I would create a custom tour to make  sure we photograph what you are interested in.

You can just do the tour, or I can offer personalized assistance with composition, lighting, and critiques at the different locations. Rates for the photo tour are $250/day for just the tour, or $450 including instruction and critiques. If you would prefer to drive, deduct $50 from the rate. Half days can be arranged, and the tour can be shared with no extra cost. Meals and entrance fees not covered by my passes are additional.

Private sessions can be scheduled for any topic that I teach, from beginning to advanced levels. We can create a custom format so that you can choose exactly what you want to learn--whether it be basic photography, camera use, Photoshop techniques, digital printing, infrared photography, or whatever else you have in mind. Rates are $100/hour or $600/day and can be shared. If you stay at my Tropical Hideaway Vacation Rental, I can offer a package deal of 20% off the private session. Private sessions will usually be held in my studio in Captain Cook, Hawaii. Contact me to set up the details.

I no longer offer the annual  7-day Women's Photography Retreats.
