Mark your calendars!  I'll be returning to the John C. Campbell Folk School next summer to teach Wanderlust: The Art of Travel Photography from Sunday, June 28th to Friday, July 3rd, 2026. I've really enjoyed teaching photography workshops at this very special place since 2011. My most recent workshop was this past June and it was such a pleasure having Margaret, Lundie, Al, and Janel in my workshop. To hear more about our week and to see my four students amazing work, please be sure to visit the blog HERE.

If this workshop sounds like something you'd like to take, you may find additional information and registration HERE. This workshop is great for the advanced beginner to intermediate DSLR or Mirrorless Camera photographer, however all levels are welcome!

Creative Smartphone Photography at The 3rd Space - Monterey, Virginia - July 19, 2025

It was great to return to Highland County, Virginia to teach another photography workshop on July 19th. I taught Creative Smartphone Photography at The 3rd Space located at 132 West Main Street, Monterey, VA. My four students created some beautiful photography and they learned so much.  I'm sharing a photo of our class taken outside in front of The 3rd Space, however please see student work featured on the blog HERE!

Please visit my blog to see student work from previous workshops at John C. Campbell Folk School, Reynolda Gardens, Paul J. Ciener Botanical Garden, The 3rd Space, & Highland Arts Academy - their work is not to be missed & I hope that YOU are inspired to take a workshop with me!

PRIVATE LESSONS, GROUP WORKSHOPS, & MENTORING

PRIVATE LESSONS OR GROUP WORKSHOPS - Private lessons to individuals are available as well as workshops to smaller groups or clubs. Although I have taught a zoom class before (and would do it again), I find that you learn more in-person.

MENTORING - Please reach out if you'd like to learn more. I have mentored several high school and college students & young adults over the years. I love to teach, offer guidance, and be a great role model to those who are truly serious about photography and what it takes to run a business. With over 34 years in business, I'm a trusted professional. 

Please reach out to me HERE for additional information, fees, and scheduling. 

Feel free to follow me on social media (scroll down to bottom for links) or you may signup for my newsletters HERE, so that you don't miss out on an opportunity.
