Due to the current Covid-19 pandemic, we’ve moved all of our 3-4 day workshop to our 2021 edition (April 25-30, 2021).  As the State of California has mandated there not be any gatherings, a number of our workshop instructors have agreed to offer unique, one-day or half-day workshops that will take place ONLINE. 

ALL ONLINE WORKSHOPS ARE SCHEDULED ON PDT (Pacific Daylight Time).

  • "This is my second year in a workshop. I felt there were just enough folks in the class for the instructor to get to know the attendees and for the attendees to get to know one another. I have made lifetime friends in these workshops. I feel the number of days is good. I just wish the festival would be more days so I could fit in more seminars after the workshop." - Kim
  • "This workshop was so exceptional!! I want to do it again!! To learn from these two amazing photographers [Tim Griffith & Scott Frances] was the best opportunity I have had in photography! Hearing their thought processes about composition, light, gesture, color etc. has opened my eyes to a whole new way of thinking about my photography. I hesitated at the cost but it was well worth it!! I would consider a workshop again." - Lori
