Photo Workshop

Virtual Antarctica and High Arctic Photo Workshop - Trip Planner

Here's a cool idea for all those going to Antarctica and the High Arctic: take a virtual photo workshop, online, with me. I’ve been to Antarctica five times and the High Arctic twice, and I can share photo and travel info with you to help get the most out of your adventure – and come home with great shots!

What's included:
• One-hour Skype session before your trip where we discuss your trip and I review your photographs and offer travel tips.
• I need your Skype name and a link for a gallery of your best images.
• Half-hour Skype session after your trip where I review your new photographs and offer composition, exposure and processing suggestions.

Cost for the virtual photo workshop is $199 payable via paypal. Shoot me an email to arrange your virtual photo workshop. One-hour sessions are available for $99.

I also give virtual photo workshops to Iceland, Yellowstone/Grand Tetons, Oregon Coast, Botswana and Kenya.

In preparation for your trip, check out my KelbyOne classes and latest books.

Here’s a look at my recent High Arctic images.

Check Out My Latest KelbyOne On-Line Class: Capturing The Wild: Safari Photography

My latest KelbyOne on-line photography class, Capturing the Wild: Safari Photography, has just been released. The one-hour+ class is not just a presentation of pretty photographs. For each of the photographs I share a photography, travel or processing tip.

The class (a live, in-studio narrated Keynote slide show) will help you "tell the whole story" of your photo adventure.

In addition, you can use many of the same tips when photographing at a wildlife park, nature center, on a photo workshop, and while traveling. Animal, people and landscape photography are covered, as well as planning and packing for a trip. Basic digital enhancements are also illustrated.

The class includes my favorite images from my photo safaris to Africa, as well a few photographs taken at my favorite wildlife parks, including Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in Texas.
