Traveling as a Photographer

Traveling as a Photographer

Saturday 29 July
Picnic Point - Madison - 5pm - 2 Hours
Enhance your Travel Photos with this workshop. This course is mostly taken place outdoor and focuses on honing compositional skills specific to landscapes, cityscapes and street photography. Ideal for the frequent traveler, the photo journalist, and the photographer who just likes to take pictures anywhere, everywhere. It can be hard with all the gear requirements, charging stations, and extra accessories sometimes but I have some tips from my time traveling North America with my camera kit, and hopefully you can give me some pointers too!

    Dane Nesheim
    Hey all!
    Thought I'd leave a brief intro to myself here -
    I've been a photographer for around 8 years now! It's taken me on multiple 6.000+ mile road trips, and has also costed me many thousands of dollars (ouch). I shoot on a Canon 5D Mark IV, and my favourite lens to use is probably the Canon 24-70mm f2.8. I've also recently just bought the DJI Mavic 3 Drone!

    I mainly shoot landscape and nature photography, but I have a background in street as well. You can take a look at my Instagram @NesheimPhotography if you're interested!
