Osprey Photo Workshops & Tours

Puffin walking in blue bells

I am a pioneer in the field of photo workshops and tours, offering programs since 1979. Each is carefully crafted and well planned. By limiting the number of participants per program (primarily 3-8), I am able to offer personalized instruction.

Outer Banks Photo Workshop Fall 2023

I found the days there the most educational and informative workshop environment of my career. The leadership was strong and the venues for shoots were super.  Our host was so knowledgeable and helpful. But she would advise and answer questions and then allow us to do our own studies and testing and experimentation. It was just perfect for how I learn and what I needed. Help, but no backseat driving.

Lastly, I may have just gotten lucky, but my five fellows on the workshop were all serious about the craft, and they were all so much better than my entry-level skills, I found each person very encouraging informative in our review sessions.  

What a great time and skill enhancement.

Thank you.

Charlotte Camera Club Judging

Thank you so very much for your excellent judging at the Charlotte Camera Club.  Everyone enjoyed your clear and concise comments on all the photos submitted to the monthly contest.  Personally, after I implemented your suggestions on my photo, it finished first place in another club’s contest the following week.  Your suggestions were excellent!  Thank you from me and the entire club for your time and expertise.

Can’t wait to hear your presentation at the Club at the end of the month.

Westchester Photographic Society Wildlife Photography Zoom Program

On behalf of the Westchester Photographic Society, I would like to formally thank you for your presentation to our club, and others, this past Friday evening.

Your content more than lived up to the title “Passion of Wildlife Photography” as your dedication and enthusiasm for photographing animals were both apparent and resonated with the audience. Your images were lovely story telling captures that conveyed some important essence of the animal.  This made your images interesting and pleasing.

 

I thought your friendly and casual style helped keep the audience engaged from start to finish.
We thank you for your time and entertaining presentation.

West Virginia Photo Workshop Oct 2022

This was my 3rd photo workshop with you and, as in the first two experiences, I was not disappointed. You are an excellent workshop leader and I always come away from your workshops knowing more about the technical and creative skills of photography and I’m always happy with the photo opportunities you presented and the results I have achieved. Thanks, and I look forward to doing more workshops with you in the future.
