Along Oregon’s historic and scenic coast, this will be a weekend of imagination!
This exclusive workshop, limited to just 6 participants, offers a rare opportunity to work closely with Art Wolfe in one of the most visually captivating coastal locations. Throughout the workshop, you’ll explore both abstracts in nature and landscape photography, focusing on capturing the intricate textures, patterns, and forms that define the Oregon coast.
As the dramatic coastline shifts from misty mornings to dynamic sunsets, Art will guide you in using light, shadow, and perspective to create striking, one-of-a-kind images. The intimate group setting ensures you’ll receive personalized attention, with Art and his assistant instructor providing tailored feedback to help you push your creative boundaries.
This workshop is more than just about taking photographs—it’s about discovering new ways to see the world around you and refining your unique photographic vision.
Whether you’re a seasoned photographer looking to refine your technique or someone eager to experiment with new approaches, this retreat offers the perfect combination of technical instruction, artistic inspiration, and the natural beauty of Cannon Beach.
