What is required on Adventures?
The best thing to bring to our adventures is a happy spirit and adventurous heart. We have a great time, learn a lot and immerse ourselves into photography and fun! You’ll meet other talented and eager people and become part of our family. Each locale is different so we’ll let you know by email what to bring and exactly what to expect.

Absolutely! If you want to learn and hone your skills quickly, the best way to do that is by jumping in with both feet. We usually have photographers of all skill levels on our Adventures.
What is your Adventure Lite series all about?
Our Adventure Lite series focuses on the beauty of Southern California. These Adventures will give photographers of any skill level the opportunity to experience locale shoots without the commitment of hotels or lengthy travel. Classroom time is removed but instruction is readily available in the field. The Adventure Lite series is no less adventurous than others yet provides flexibility for photographers with limited time or budget.
