WORKSHOP DETAILS

The Photographic Workshop in the Neotropics offers students an amazing chance to explore Central America.  The expedition begins in the Nicaraguan capital of Managua and concludes in the historic Costa Rican city of San Jose.  Along the way, a photographic experience unfolds for each participant as we explore and move through a variety of environments and cultures. The primary goal of the workshop is to promote the learning and sharing of knowledge through the lens of the camera.  Students from a wide variety of academic and personal backgrounds can and do apply individual interests to the subject matter we encounter, with generally stellar results.  Instruction is individually tailored to address aspects of photographic fundamentals, workflow, and portfolio development.  No prior knowledge or experience in photography is necessary, but a single lens reflex (SLR) digital camera — and most importantly a sense of adventure — are required.
