“Hendrik is a great teacher and communicator. His photography is artistic and unique, and rather than just showing us what to do he was able to show me the value of being more creative with my photographs.”
— David C.
Hendrik Paul continues his popular night photography workshop in this four-session, advanced workshop. Our Advanced Night Photography Workshop will have you building upon your prior night photography experience.
The emphasis of this workshop will be practicing and gaining more expertise in the techniques of night shooting on-location. You will spend three separate nights shooting at classic Northern California locations: the colorful streets of Chinatown in San Francisco, the architecture and nature of Crissy Field, and the hills of the Marin Headlands, specifically Hawk Hill and the area around the Nike Missile Site, perfect for night sky photography.
Designed especially for the advanced night photographer, Hendrik will advise during these night shoots assisting you with technical night photography tips, specific camera settings, techniques of long exposure photography, and use of various filters for creating successful photographs at night.
This workshop includes a supportive and informative print critique of your nighttime photography to provide valuable feedback and help elevate your work to new levels.
Three (3), 11 x 17 prints on Epson Premium Luster paper are included in this workshop. Additional prints, if desired, will be discounted to $12/each.
The final class session will be back on location. This provides an opportunity to practice your night photography settings and techniques and incorporate the advice and insight received during the classroom critiques.
Locations and time for shoots will be provided in a reminder email distributed prior to the first class.
