Roosevelt National Park is a new Masterclass location in which we are very excited to be teaching. As with all of our class locations we are taking you on a ‘Get Out There Adventure’. the perfect place to develop your landscape photography skills. Here is a land of colossal photographic drama and sights that are unparalleled in the world. The park lies in Western North Dakota were the ‘Great Plains’ meet the rugged ‘Badlands’. A habitat for bison, elk, and prairie dogs, the sprawling park has three distinct units all linked by the Little Missouri River. The South Unit is renowned for its colorful painted canyons and the Maltese Cross cabin where President Roosevelt once lived. This class is the perfect opportunity to expand and build upon your photographic library, or if you’re new to photography it’s a wonderful place to start.
You will capture light, shadow, line, form, texture, and more from the Painted Canyons, the Northern Badlands, the Oxbow of the Little Missouri, as well as the ‘Grand Canyon of the Little Missouri’. All of our planned shooting locations are easy access and just a short distance from our basecamp in Medora, North Dakota. Our hotel is to be determined but we will have details well in advance of the class.
The ‘Roosevelt National Park Masterclass’ photography workshop is a 5-day full immersion program that teaches a capture to post-production workflow to create fine art landscape photography. We are not a photography tour provider; we are a visual arts, photography education program. Thus, you will spend significant time at each location with your instructor to develop a deep understanding of your subject and theme and learn to complete your vision in post-production.
You will work in selected backcountry locations and learn landscape art visualization, creative approaches to sky and ground compositions, light atmospherics, and our’ work the scene-work the camera’ methods to capture and express your subjective thoughts and feelings. We provide lectures and instructions for the application of documentary, narrative, and navigation landscape art approaches. Masterclass students capture grand scenic, intermediate, and detail compositions with professional methods such as Stack Focus, Dynamic Range Capture, Lens Choice, ND Filter applications, ETTR, Landscape Gear Management, and more.
In the class conference room, you will learn an end-to-end post-production workflow with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop to increase your work’s emotional range. You will learn foolproof methods with an instructor by your side to develop raw images, image segmentation, Lightroom luminosity and color techniques, color grading, tone principles, insights into landscape thematics, and how to create images that are ‘beyond the lens.’
Upon your return home, you will receive three hours of online post-production training. This is a one-on-one program to help you complete selected images from the Field and expand your ability to visualize the final image. You may also extend your one-on-one training for two additional hours as part of your Masterclass package for an extra $100.00 fee.
Our Masterclass Photography Workshops are small, intimate, collegial, and instruction is hands-on.
